Playing Dress Up




I love hosting mystery parties. In fact, I would love to have a business hosting them. It's so much fun dressing up and being someone else for the evening! I have almost all the How to Host a Murder games and a few years ago Mandy had a mystery party for her birthday. Yes, they have them for children, too!
The name of one company that creates these games is Dramatic Fanatic. Here is one of their new games...

And here is an example of one of the information cards/ scripts. It's all done for you!:)

 I would love to host this one next month!

Check it out! I know you will become a fan, too!

    Looks like the girls are having a GREAT time!
    The one in the first photo in the pink ALMOST looks like she could be Amanda's sister! Wow!

    I think you would be an amazing mystery host! Maybe you should go into party planning! :)

    Good Night sweetie-Try to get some sleep!!!! (I bet your crafting!)

    What fun!!! I've heard about How to Host a Murder games and people just rave about them, but I've never participated in one. These new ones, I just might have to check out...Abby would love them!

    That looks like so much fun! I've never been to a mystery party, but would LOVE to participate in one!!
    How fun would it be to have a mystery party business!! You could even drive a "mystery" van like The Scooby Doo Gang.

    Hi Lori
    That looks such a fun party. Thanks for sharing the lovely pictures. I didn't recognise Mandy either. I will definately check out the Dramatic Fanatic website. Our church drama group have held murder mystery evenings. Tim was in one once.
    Have a great weekend.
