  2. A MURDER MYSTERY EXPERIENCE

A MURDER MYSTERY EXPERIENCE

6–10 PEOPLE - £600

DURATION:  2 – 3 hours

Are you prepared to solve a murder?

In Justice at the Jail, your group becomes the investigating team. A crime has been committed within the prison walls, and it’s up to you to uncover the truth.

Gather clues, interrogate inmates, examine evidence and work together to separate genuine information from deliberate misdirection. The prisoners won’t make it easy for you — some are evasive, some misleading, and some may be hiding far more than they admit.

This fully interactive experience challenges your teamwork, creativity and critical thinking. Every member of the group plays a part in solving the case.

Will justice be served — or will the guilty walk free?
