PRESENTED BY
Murder on the Mount
3 Hour Cruise, Buffet Dinner, & Murder: $99
The Hatter’s Ball is the bash of the year, and you’ve finally received an invitation! This year, Mayor Riley White has moved the event to the M/S Mount Washington on a special moonlit cruise.
Some think that the event is just an attempt to divert attention from a series of scandals that have plagued the town in recent months. And you have to admit, the fact that the event will take place right before the mayoral election is certainly suspicious.
But on the other hand, all of the town’s most influential (and a few notorious) citizens will be there, and you’ve always dreamed of receiving an invitation. So why not?
Now… you need a hat that will be the envy of the town. It’s the Hatter’s Ball, after all.
This special event dinner cruise and work together to solve a fictitious murder. Passengers not only have to investigate the murder, but they also become the suspects. By the end of the cruise, guests must figure out who did it, how they did it, and why. There will be clues that show that the murderer, and no one else on the cruise, had motive and opportunity to commit the murder.
All passengers are encouraged to arrive for the cruise with a fun and flamboyant hat reflective of their own personal sense of style. The favorite hat will win a prize!
