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

A 2.2 km walk through Ogden, taking about 90 minutes, follows the death of travel blogger Bella Wanderlust on a ghost tour, with her boyfriend Walter and guide Percy Shadows among the suspects. Couples, friends and families with teens gather clues and question suspects themselves, outdoors and whenever they choose. If you want a seated dinner show with actors or an indoor escape room, choose something else.

What makes this quest special

Highlights

  • A travel blogger is dead and the trail through Ogden is still warm enough to follow.

  • Read the scene, then read the people, decipher hidden messages and piece the evidence together until the alibis stop agreeing.

  • Twelve stops across 2.2 km from Washington Blvd, past Justice Plaza and Ogden Plaza, on historic streets and in the corners most visitors walk straight past.

  • A date night that is also a killer group activity, played with your partner, a few friends, or alone if you trust yourself.

  • Just your phone, starting whenever you like, with nothing to collect and nobody waiting on you.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a murder mystery game I can play in Ogden?
Yes. This is a self-guided murder mystery played outdoors on your phone as you walk about 2.2 km through Ogden. You gather clues and interrogate suspects to work out who killed travel blogger Bella Wanderlust during a ghost tour. You can start whenever you like.
Is this a murder mystery dinner show?
No. There is no dinner, no actors and no fixed showtime. Your group plays the detectives, walking through Ogden with the app, hearing the story at each place and solving puzzles to decide whether Walter, Percy or someone else is guilty. It is easy to fit around a meal out.
How is it different from an escape room in Ogden?
An escape room keeps you in one indoor room. Here the puzzles are set in the streets in front of you, the game runs on your own phones, and you choose when to start. Because it is outdoors, check the weather and dress for it before you set off.
How long does it take, and do we need to book a time?
Plan on around 90 minutes to cover roughly 2.2 km on foot. There is no time slot to book, so you start when it suits you. You can also pause and continue later, which makes it easy to stop for a coffee or split the game across two sessions.
Can we play as a group, and is it suitable for kids?
Yes, one ticket covers your whole group, and everyone plays on their own phones. The story centres on a death and a list of suspects, so it suits teens and older children who enjoy a detective puzzle more than very young kids.
