Zombie Murder Mystery Party

Have you ever attended a My Murder Mystery Party?  My husband and I have been to several different types, including dinner theaters.  This was our first time to actually host one.  Our twins were turning 16 and we asked them if they wanted to have a murder mystery party for all their friends.  They were very hesitant because they didn't understand what it was all about.  I don't think that they really got it until it was over! haha

They chose the Zombie My Mystery Party which was the most perfect party for tweens, teens and adults! We had over 40 people and it was fun! We paired up tweens with adults and teens.  We tried mixing it up and it worked great.  Our age range was 11-50 something. It was a great family event!

Here is the website description:
Dust off your tattered zombie clothing and get ready for your next exciting zombie murder mystery party! 
A fun zombie-themed murder mystery party for ages 15 and up, 8-16+ guests. Non-gender specific - play co-ed, all female or all male! Expandable to over 40 guests with the main game by adding additional guests to play with the 3 expandable characters.
Our Take on the Party:  I started planning a month before the party to get everything set up.  These type of parties can be put together in just a few days, too. The kit, once paid for, is instantly downloadable.  This is a huge plus in my book.  I loved having the kit right away so that I could plan out what I needed to do for the party. There are some parts of the kit that must be printed off, like the name tags and script for each character. You can do that at home, online copy center or take the file to a local copy center.  We had Staples make our copies.   
Each part of the mystery is clearly explained and outlined.  We never had confusion of what needed to be done.  My husband and I both ran the party.  I did all the behind the scenes organization and he led the party.  It is funny because in the end when they had to cast "who did it", I was chosen as one of the murderers.  Here I was just the Mommy Housewife Zombie, feeding all of them each course and they thought I was a killer! haha  

The Kit included recipe ideas, games, music ideas, props,etc.  These things were all very helpful in the planning stage.Our party lasted several hours.  We cut out a few games just to save on time.  No one noticed but the host.
Host: Agent Xmuldersmith, Mrs. Zombie HousewifeI have nothing negative to say about the My Mystery Party site or the party kit!  You must go check it out.  They have specific parties for Adults, Teens and Kids!  I started to count and I stopped once I got to 50!  

We picked this party at a great time because all the Halloween stuff that I wanted for the party.  You can go all out crazy with decorations, food, costumes like we did or you can keep it simple.  If you are thinking of having one, pick it and then start getting the items you need.  I recommend that you have several people helping you who are not involved in the mystery.  This will make everything flow!     Do you have any questions for me about the Murder Mystery? I'd be happy to answer them. Besides all the food, costumes and decorations, my favorite part was having a party where everyone got involved.  Some players got into it a lot more than others.  Some came in full costume, others none while some just did their face.  We had paint handy to help those who needed it!  Some didn't pass on all their information yet some probably gave away too much.  It was a huge success. I think everyone loved when the victim came out of hiding.  No one knew when or how they would find out about the victim.  We had one of the birthday girls be the victim! It was perfect! 

We want to plan another one.  Some of our friends are going to host the next one.  I can see that we started a trend here!   Here are pics of the food. Some have links because I have blogged the recipes! The birthday girls helped plan what we were going to eat and what we were going to call the food.  It was fun giving ordinary things, like chips, crazy-creepy names like "scabs."  All the soda bottles have fun labels, too.  We took off the original labels so they only knew what they were drinking by what they thought it was.  How fun! Enjoy!
