Beacon TheatreMuseum Of Natural History Scavenger Hunt (Murder Mystery)
Step into a museum wide mystery that blends a social scavenger hunt with a whodunit at the American Museum of Natural History. Teams explore the galleries, crack clues, and piece together an unfolding story centered on Dino Dave, a frequent meetup attendee whose abrasive behavior left a trail of rivals. He checked in that morning but never returned, and the exhibits plus a day’s worth of social media posts may hold the answers. Some participants may even discover they are entangled in the plot without realizing it. Arrive solo or with a group, since those without a team are paired up. Each team receives a clue sheet with roughly 30 prompts, then has 90 minutes to track down as many answers as possible throughout the halls. After the hunt, everyone regroups to finalize solutions and submit a team answer, with time to relax over food and drinks while scores are tallied. Expect a clear set of instructions, access to the exhibits during the hunt, a narrative that builds as you investigate, and a friendly finish where the solution is revealed. Comfortable, casual attire and good walking shoes are recommended. Open to ages 21 and up, with a mix of ages typically attending. Tickets are $44 and may increase as space becomes limited, and include museum admission and the scavenger hunt fee.
