CONFIDENTIAL / CASE BRIEFING
The story starts here.
You know the old saying, “The boyfriend did it”? On an ill-fated night, love goes terribly wrong for Bella Wanderlust and Walter Bridges.
Bella, a famous travel blogger, was found dead during a ghost tour led by the theatrical Percy Shadows. Now, it’s up to you to uncover the truth.
Was it Walter, the obsessed boyfriend? Percy, the ghost tour guide with a flair for the dramatic? Or is someone else hiding in the shadows?
🔎 Gather clues, interrogate suspects, and expose the real murderer before they strike again. Make sure to have your pen and paper ready to jot down all the crucial evidence.
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Couples on a date night, groups of friends and families with teens get to play detective themselves, gathering clues and questioning suspects on a 1.8 km loop from Lethbridge Court House. Allow around 1 hour 45 minutes, played whenever you like. Anyone wanting a staged murder mystery dinner, or with young children who may find a story about a murdered travel blogger too grim, should pick something else.

Frequently asked questions
Where does the murder mystery walk start and finish?
It is a loop that starts and ends at Lethbridge Court House. Along the way it passes stops such as Thelma & Thistle, Bread Milk & Honey Cafe, The Place Arcade Bar, Mediterranean Mazza and Wildside Pizzeria, before finishing at the 4 Ave S/4 St S corner of the Court House.
How long does it take?
Most players take around 1 hour 45 minutes, including the walking and solving the puzzles. The route covers about 1.8 km. You can pause at any point and continue later, so there is no need to finish in one go.
Can we play as a group?
Yes. One ticket covers the whole group playing together, and you follow the investigation on your own phones. It works well for couples, groups of friends, birthday parties and hen or stag groups who want to solve the case as a team.
Is it suitable for kids?
It suits older kids and teens playing with adults. The story centres on the death of a travel blogger during a ghost tour, with suspects to question and clues to piece together, so it may be too dark or demanding for young children.
Do we need to book a time slot?
No. There is no group to join and no guide, so you can start whenever suits you. The app leads you from stop to stop, tells the story of each place and sets the puzzles, and you can pause and pick up again later.
