Booked for Corporate Function

Booked for Private party

We had a brilliant murder mystery evening to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday. The evening went really smoothly and Phil kept us all on track and helped to prompt us with our characters and information we needed to share on the evening. He was also very discreet when we all sat and ate dinner and his timings were very helpful to enable us to plan the different courses. We have tried similar evenings without a host and this was so much better! Everyone had a fantastic time and I would highly recommend Phil if you are thinking of hosting an event too.

Booked for Corporate Function

What a fantastic evening! We hired Phil to run a Murder Mystery party for our Halloween work event. From the start, Phil was incredibly organised and patient with our arrangements, and throughout the night, he stayed committed to the party and kept things flowing for us. Thank you so much to Phill for making our Halloween one to remember! We would definitely recommend for any party or event!

Booked for Birthday party

Amber and Jessica of Nobody's Fool Mystery games helped create a spectacular evening for my birthday party. I loved the warmth and positive energy they brought to the event in addition to a top-notch murder mystery game experience. They really thought through all of the details and were generous with their time in advance of the event. I enjoyed the fact that they came in fancy dress to help set the mood. They struck the right balance between guiding the event and leaving us alone to enoy ourselves. I highly recommend using them!

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
