It sets the tone of the whole event, so take your time and put a few options down on your party list. Then, work through each option and make a short list of pros and cons. If you plan on wrangling a few friends to form a party committee, do it now so you all have a say in the theme.\u00a0 <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Once you\u2019ve decided on a theme, you\u2019ll have a road map of how the rest of your party will look and feel. You can go classic with a straightforward murder mystery dinner party set in a specific decade. Or you could mash up a few genres like an 80s synth-wave dystopian future, where everyone wears clown shoes. Go crazy and be creative!

It must be engaging enough to keep your guests enthralled as the night progresses. Once your theme is sorted, break the story into a few parts: the scenario, the character backstories, the crime and the evidence.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The scenario &amp; the crime: <\/strong><span data-contrast=\"none\">The scenario will come from your theme, so make sure the two align. Pick an interesting location for the crime to happen in. Give a compelling motive for each character attending the party, and a reason why each character could be the killer. What do they stand to lose or gain from the crime if they get away with it? Is there a love triangle or a forbidden union? How is the crime committed? Is it an accident? Or more straightforward, like a murder in the library with an ornate lion bookend? Did the killer leave any clues at the scene, or must they be found elsewhere? Create a trail of clues that has a few twists, turns, and dead ends to keep your guests on their toes.\u00a0 <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>The backstory: <\/strong>Creating your story from scratch is always fun but can be a fair amount of work. The cool part is that you can tailor the backstory to your venue and guests\u2019 personalities. If you\u2019re looking for an easier solution, there are tons of free murder mystery storylines available online. Some websites will even create a custom murder mystery game for a fee. This is your adventure, so you decide how much work you want to put into it.\u00a0 <span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>The evidence: <\/strong>Once the story is locked down, you\u2019ll need clues to help move the night along. Clues should be revealed at intervals in the evening to build suspicion. The more crumbs you drop, the closer your guests will be to solving the murder. It\u2019s a good idea to have a set list of questions and answers for each character. Rounds of questioning can be staggered throughout the night. Be sure to tell your guests that they must not make an accusation until the end of the party. We strongly recommend mapping the evening out with a schedule and timing. This will keep things on track no matter what happens.\u00a0\u00a0<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>3.
