Booked for Birthday party for kids

Dana run a Betrayers party for my 11 year old daughter and around 20 of her friends for 2.5 hours. They all loved the game and greatly enjoyed the party!

Booked for Christmas party

We had an incredible evening at our company Christmas party, thanks to Phil's outstanding facilitation. The 1920s theme was a hit, and despite the loud environment and the presence of 28 attendees, Phil ensured everyone could hear him clearly. He skillfully managed side conversations to keep the clues flowing and made sure key individuals interacted at the right moments. His preparation with props and costumes added an extra layer of fun, making the night even more memorable. Our company has been buzzing about the event ever since, and I highly recommend booking Phil for this type of party.

Booked for Birthday party

Fantastic evening with Phil hosting a murder mystery for my father's 80th birthday at my home. From booking to reveal it was a seamles process and a lot of fun for all of the family. Phil worked with the caterers to make sure the story fitted around each course and maximised everyone's time. We ranged in age from 8-80 with differing levels of initial commitment to the characters and everybody thouroughly enjoyed the evening! I would highly recomemend Phil and no doubt his wider team. Thank you - great fun!
