Hey everyone, we're in the planning stages of our haunt this year. We're thinking about doing a Jack the Ripper theme. There isn't a whole lot out there that I can find of other haunts doing this theme. I have spoken to a few folks though, and if anyone HAS done a Jack the Ripper theme, I'd love...

One year when I was thinking about doing a murder scene theme for my haunt (and know some of you plan for murder mystery parties so posting here as a result), I was looking at different ready-made police line up scene setters to use. Kind of hate spending a lot of money on stuff like this for...

How did you parties turn out? Ours was Saturday and it poured down rain. Our turn out wasn't what we hoped with 9 of our "Yeses" not showing up and none of our 11 maybes. So we planned for turn out in the mid twenties including us and ended up with 14. But it's not the first year we have had a...

Ok, I was looking everywhere for printable cards for the winking murder game. There was a lady on here, who said she would email them if needed, But I am not sure if she is still a member. So I made my own take on the cards. Here they are if you want them! (I printed mine in large size prints...

I know a number of you along with myself bought the Grandinroad Haunted Typewriter this year. Wanted to mention that I just ordered a set of Alphabet Cookie Stamps from Williams-Sonoma that look like individual vintage typewriter keys. Thought they went well together and invite some creativity...

Hey Guys, I am planning a Masquerade & Mischief party this year and I wanted to have some built in activities to highlight the " Mischief' part. For the most part we will have adults at the party, but will also have some teens possibly. I wanted ideas for an activity that everyone could...

The body bags were made by laying plastic tarp down then forming blankets and other stuffing material into the shape of a body. I also added a styrofoam head and doll hair I found at the dollar store. I covered the styrofoam head with plenty of hair and some blood to keep the white foam from...

We were talking about Midsomer Murders over in another thread and scareme suggested that English murder mysteries could probably use there own thread. There's definitely enough of 'em. I just mentioned this to oojen, but there's a pretty accurate tweet from DC Pierson... 'At the BBC you can...

Hey everyone, I was thinking of scaling it back next year and just doing a dinner party for Halloween. I thought a murder mystery dinner party would be fun but I am not a big fan of the pre-made games you can buy online. If you have done a murder mystery dinner in the past I would love for you...

So my family does a big murder mystery party each year. but these are the typical murder mystery. We have an abandoned property that has actors, clues, and objectives for the guests to interact with. This year we are thinking of having a vampire theme. In which we would like the guests would...

Hi, everyone! Technically, this is a birthday topic, since I'm planning a murder mystery party for my 30th birthday, but I knew you all would have some great, spooky ideas! I'm actually excited to be turning 30 in a few months, but I know it's a scary subject for some, so I thought this theme...

Did you know Dial 'M for Murder was filmed in 3D? I sure didn't. But Cineplex in Canada is playing it in theatres Monday, September 22nd, at least locally. So if you're a Hitchcock fan, you may want to keep your eyes open. Reading up, Dial M for Murder was released in 3D on BluRay in 2012, so...

Newbie to the boards, but have been lurking here for a while now trying to find inspiration for our annual gathering. We get together with bunch of our gaming friends every year for a weekend-long "Halloween" party (usually do it before Halloween due to traveling time for some of our guests)...

This might be out by Halloween, maybe, probably earlier, since I have a Halloween project in mind. Hey, I'm Matt (KinzCove) and I am heavily into stop-motion horror. Last year I created a short 5 minute horror/thriller titled "Home for Supper," and this year i'm working on another LEGO Horror...
