With more than 21 years of murder mystery experience as part of the award winning CCC Events (also Sussex Small Business of the year 2011!), we pride ourselves on quality events with successful delivery.  We strive to produce innovative and creative concepts to keep our audience captivated and entertained. We work our magic in more than 20 unique murder mysteries that will turn you into a serial client!

There's no such thing as a 'typical' murder mystery, and that's never been more true than when looking at the number of participants - with murders catering for between 5-500+ people, we will have something to fit your needs! That said, most of our murders are best suited for two or more teams of 5-10 people, competing with each other to solve the mystery.

We believe that the best experiences are yours and yours alone. Our events are private and we work exclusively with you and for you on the day.

If you are an individual looking to add a little murderous entertainment to your life, then please register your details with us by emailing info@murdermysterycompany.co.uk and we will inform you when our upcoming free murder mystery is available, ideal for small groups or dinner parties!

We aim to keep interest levels high so will generally aim for a programme of up to three hours for our evening murder mysteries. Our murder mystery days vary in length however we can work to whatever timings you desire.

For those real fanatics, we can organise a whole weekend away!

We can recommend all of our murders, however, some will be much more suited to you and your group than others.  It really depends on what your expectations and requirements are but if you call one of our murder mystery specialists they will be happy to discuss all the options with you.

Absolutely, as long as we have enough time and information we can definitely work to your requirements.  Have a look at our case studies page, we have created high impact murder mysteries for high flying clients with excellent results.

£10/head will buy you a box set from Amazon and a pizza without a wine budget to lubricate proceedings (a great option for 6 guests although we would recommend upgrading the food!). We aim to provide something special and different, effectively your own private event and there are base costs involved, however we aim to keep our prices as reasonable as possible so please do give us a call on 0845 006 0606 to find out how we can help you.

We run an exciting array of murder mysteries, each with its own twists, turns and suspense laden scenario. Most of our evening mysteries unravel over dinner with the help of professional actors, costumed characters and a carefully crafted murder plot that culminates with a hilarious re-enactment of verdicts by your guests.

We aim to be at the forefront of the murder mystery scene so we have developed a number of more technical, daytime mysteries in line with popular themes as well as innovative twists to traditional plots.

Oh yes, murder mysteries are extremely flexible on location...we have recently run a fantastic 007 themed event in a chateaux in Switzerland!

We work with incredibly talented people on all of our events and do use professional stage actors in many of our productions.

Of course, we ask you and your team to play detective by solving the clues and uncovering the murderer. We work with talented actors who will play all the main roles. In our evening murder mysteries you and your team also get the opportunity to take centre stage and act out your verdicts; donning an array of colourful outfits...

Team Building is our game so all of our events promote team work and effective collaboration. We will kindly ask you to mix and match your guests within teams so that individual strengths are recognised and utilised in a relaxed and fun environment.

It really depends on the size of the group and the particular mystery chosen. We always aim to match your requirements as closely as possible so whether it’s budget, space or timings, we have the right case for you!

Just sit back and enjoy, most of our evening mysteries will require you to sit with your group over a tasty three course meal and solve the mystery using a variety of different methods.  Other mysteries will have you much more actively involved, just let us know how much you want to participate and we’ll suggest the best options for you!

Only if you want to, all our costumes are of a high quality and will certainly be appreciated by your more extrovert guests!

Murder mysteries run all year long, there is certainly a boost around the end of the year but we can cater to your needs and run these events whenever you require them.
