Murder Mystery meets Escape Room in this unique event planning service! PERFECT for corporate retreats, house parties, team building activities, and fundraisers!
We come to your location and cater our pre-written mysteries to your event and group, as well as offer custom options if you have a specific idea for your party. All of our games offer a super rich, suspenseful storyline that speaks to all of you super sleuths out there, as well as escape room elements sprinkled throughout - so you can expect to be breaking into safes, lockboxes, solving puzzles and riddles, all while unraveling the "whodunit!"
We had Whodunit Games for our university holiday party in our department. They were great to work with, very responsive, and crafted a completely unique storyline for our department (we sent them lots of information about 1.5 months in advance so highly recommend to book early and communicate if that's what you would like!). The story was full of relevant inside jokes for our department and very interactive with lots of speaking parts and side quests. We did about 30-45 minute acts (two parts) which was honestly a bit tight but worked out in the end.
Such a fun experience! Hired Leslea to host my daughter's 14h birthday party, and it was a HUGE hit!! Leslea was very involved, and the game itself was immersive, and she did such a great job of incorporating our home, and different rooms into the game! It's the day after, and the girls are still talking about how much they loved it, and how fun AND CREEPY Leslea was!
Would 100% hire/recommend to anyone. You will not be disappointed!
Thank you!
We booked Whodunit Games for 2 custom murder mysteries at Fyre Lake Winery, and they did not disappoint. After bringing the statement of work to the owner, we talked and came up with a plan to deliver some fun nights of entertainment to our guests. Flexibility is important to us and Whodunit Games was perfect for the job. The reviews of the Mystery Nights topped many of the events that we run at the winery.
We had a great night with Whodunit Games! Very professional and overall a great experience! We will for sure book another event in the future!
Response from Whodunit Games:
Thanks, Samantha! Looking forward to hosting another Whodunit for you all!
Our group got together for what we thought was a regular hang-out, but it became a mystery/escape event we will never forget. The story was intricate and fascinating as we worked together to find and solve clues. It was an experience unlike anything I have done before, and it was all catered for our specific group of people. I couldn't recommend "Whodunit Games" more!
Response from Whodunit Games:
Thanks so much, Micah! That day was a blast and made even better by THE BEST ICE CREAM I have ever had! Singers Ice Cream knows how to keep you coming back for more!
Leslea put together a mystery for my family at Christmas time and it was so much fun and the highlight of the night!! She’s very professional and did a wonderful job, you won’t regret booking her!!

Thanks, Cori! I loved getting to spend some of your Christmas with you and your family. It was such a fun night!

Allow me to walk you through what you can expect, from Booking to Escape:
1. Book your event!
2. Choose your mystery
3. Finalize your guest list and provide contact information for each person
4. Each guest receives a formal Invitation from Whodunit Games, giving some details on the event and character information
STEPS 3 AND 4 MAY NOT BE NECESSARY FOR LARGE FUNDRAISERS OR CORPORATE EVENTS
5. Before the event, either a virtual or in-person walkthrough of the venue between you and your Whodunit Host so the planning may begin
6. Set-up time for your Whodunit Host to prepare the venue for the event (It is important that no one who is participating in the Mystery is present during this time)
7. GO TIME!
- The client normally has a meal for their guests before the game starts (Whodunit Games does not currently offer catering)
- Your Whodunit Host enters and sets the scene for the mystery
- The guests are released to begin hunting for clues and working to solve the mystery
- Everyone works together to solve the "whodunit" in the allotted time and make it out alive
8. After the game is finished, your Whodunit Host will reset the space to appear as it did before they arrived
Hi there! My name is Leslea Horn and Whodunit Games is definitely a labor of love. When asked by my church to write a murder mystery to raise money for Convoy of Hope, I had no idea how it would snowball and affect my life in such an amazing way! After the joy I experienced in creating a memorable event for such a special cause, the spark was lit! Whodunit Games was born and my life was forever changed.
I've always loved Murder Mysteries and Escape Rooms; but I have never felt like I got everything that I wanted out of either experience. If it was a murder mystery, I wanted my mind to be challenged in a more analytical way... if it was an escape room, I wanted more storyline and character development... For my "difficult to please self," I made it my mission to create a new genre of "suspense entertainment," and Whodunit Games was the result. No matter your venue or event type, you can expect an amazing storyline, fun and unique characters for all of your guests, organized chaos while hunting for "clues," escape room elements including - but not limited to - safes, lockboxes, riddles, puzzles, locked/chained exits, and a Whodunit Host that will manage your game from start to finish during the event.
We can make a Whodunit Game work in any location, especially since each game is customized to fit YOUR space! During our initial consultation, we can discuss this in more detail!
