Murder mystery parties can be fun to host, but a challenge to plan. There are tips to be considered if your party is to be a success. First, try out the idea on a few of your friends to see what they think about the idea. If they agree that it would be fun, then jump right in and get to the planning. You must plan the agenda and theme for the party next. There are many great ideas online for the actual murder mystery and it is good to choose one that you feel will suit the group of people you will be inviting. It is a good idea to plan out this type of party well in advance and to send two different invitations to this type of party. The first invitation should tell the date and time and tell people that you will be having a murder mystery party. Include an RSVP date so that you can find out who is interested and available on that date and who is not. This will help you when you are sending their character invitations later. These will be the more detailed invitations that will tell them a little bit about their character and should be sent about 2 weeks before the party, allowing party guests enough time to get their costumes together for the big event. After you know how many are coming, begin to concentrate on the menu. You can do a themed menu which pertains to the actual murder mystery itself, or just a general menu. But a buffet will likely be the easiest to do successfully because you won't have to worry about serving guests. If you are considering a sit down dinner, then plan on having waiters and helpers in the kitchen to plate the food. Next, you will need to immerse yourself in the theme of the party. You will need to create the setting and atmosphere for the party, which is imperative to setting the tone. Start to check out thrift stores to find the right decorations without spending too much. If you keep your eyes open, things will come across your path that you can decorate with. Finally, you are ready. Make sure you have read through the game several times to familiarize yourself with all of its details. Get a friend to help with this is you are unsure about something. The exciting thing about murder mystery parties is that nobody is ever bored. Just make sure you keep the party moving and you will be able to pull it off without a hitch.
