"Murder She Wrote" Mystery Game & Tea Party at the Storyteller's Cottage (The Storyteller's Cottage)

On the first Wednesday of each month, beginning June 5, the Storyteller’s Cottage will host a “Murder She Wrote” themed mystery game and tea party event from 1:00 - 3:00 pm. Tickets are $20, and include admission to one of the immersive mystery room games at the Cottage, followed by a charming tea party featuring a variety of desserts and herbal teas.

This fun and unusual daytime event is designed to introduce senior citizens to the convivial pleasure of mystery room games, an immersive intellectual activity where players work in teams to discover clues and solve a roomful of puzzles and codes to divine the solution to a mystery. Three different mystery room games are available at the Storyteller’s Cottage, including The Detective’s Dinner Party (a Victorian murder mystery), The Dame Disappears (a WWII spy mystery), and The Legend of the Fairy Queen (a time travel mystery). A different game will be featured each month. The cost is normally $33 per player, but for this special introductory event, tickets are reduced to just $20, which also includes food & drink afterward. Guests are invited to bring friends or come alone and meet new ones!
