Feel like reading more before contacting us directly? Here are some common questions from discerning clients like you.
We generally require a 3 week lead-time but can move quickly in certain circumstances. We know murder isn't always premeditated.
It begins with you. We'll conduct a brief interview - this will include questions about the anticipated number of party-goers and the date and the occasion for the event. Together, we'll identify a vice tier (Cozy vs Hard-Boiled), an engagement tier (Private Eye vs Your Girl Friday), and then a list of desired story elements.
Murder, Bespoke then drafts several proposal storylines for you to choose from. Once you've selected a storyline, the real work begins. We may contact you with quick questions about acceptable story elements or to check in on player needs. Leading up to the party, Murder, Bespoke will contact your players with details of the game, including their unique character sheets.
Murder, Bespoke will either mail or hand-deliver hard copies of the documents in player assigned envelopes to you for use during the party.
If you want a murder mystery, you need a murderer. And if you want a good mystery, you need a bunch of interesting suspects. You decide how salacious you want the skeletons in your suspects' proverbial closets to be.
There are two tiers to choose from:
Tier selection is only the first step in defining the flavor of the game. This allows us to better understand your guests' needs. We are highly sensitive to emotional well-being and will engage mindfully with you when determining what subjects to include or avoid.
We will only ever contact you and your players in relation to the commissioned game unless we have an agreement for other communication.
We do not send marketing emails.
