An Old Hollywood Murder Mystery Dinner Party

Step into the glamour, secrets, and suspense of 1950s Old Hollywood on November 14th from 5–8 PM at the historic Dayton House.

Tonight is Hollywood’s biggest awards dinner, where stars, socialites, and industry insiders have gathered for one of the most glamorous nights of the year. Everyone has come dressed to impress, ready to celebrate the coveted Actress of the Year award.

But behind the glamour are secrets, rivalries, and hidden motives—and before the night is over, a murder will turn Hollywood’s biggest celebration into a mystery.

🎭 You’re Part of the Story

This isn’t a show you simply sit back and watch—you become part of the mystery.

Each guest will be assigned a character to portray throughout the evening, complete with their own story, secrets, relationships, and clues. Come as your character and get ready to put on your best actor or actress face.

Throughout the evening, you’ll mingle with other characters, ask questions, uncover motives, discover clues, and piece together what really happened.

At the end of the night, everyone will make their final accusation:

Who committed the murder?
