You have to check out this thrilling event, 'Murder at the Mansion,' happening at The Last Check-In! This Halloween-themed murder mystery dinner invites you to unravel the secrets of Charles Whitmore, who was found dead in a locked hotel room. Gather your team of 2 to 4 detectives—whether it's a date night, a group of friends, or family—and dive into a case file filled with corporate greed and blackmail. Enjoy a delicious dinner starting with a salad, and sip on exclusive Halloween cocktails or a signature mocktail for the younger sleuths. Throughout the evening, you'll compete with other tables for points on the master scoreboard, following clues and questioning the timeline to make your Final Accusation before time runs out. It's a unique experience with no actors, just you and your crew solving the mystery!
