Company details

  1. Corporate entertainment service

Written by the company

The Murder Mystery Meals Company have been in business since 1996 offering fun Murder Mystery evenings and weekends. We run over 450 events a year and offer a nationwide service. We can organise a venue for you or we can come to your home, a holiday cottage, office, hall, hotel. We are completely flexible. With our smaller events up to 35 guests with two actors we can offer an event where you all get a character and one of you is Murderer!! We do not tell the Murderer who they are so we don't spoil it for one person having to keep a secret. You all follow the clues and think "Do you know what, it might be me!!" For larger events for up to 140 people we will still try to involve some of the guests as characters alongside our 5 actors. All of our events provide a fun filled evening that you will be talking about for days.

Small dinner party

Excellent night , the plot was very well written so the murdered person could still participate in the whole evening . Actors were very friendly and immersed in the whole event We were a private party of 7 people and I think they usually had larger gatherings but they adapted pretty well .

Brilliant way to spend an evening....

We recently had a Murder Mystery work event. Steve and his team were brilliant and engaging, and had us all laughing together, as well as trying to figure out "whodunnit". We all emersed ourselves into our costumes and characters, made easier by Steve and the team and their great acting! Thank you for such a memorable evening !!

A brilliant and unforgettable evening!

I booked a murder mystery for my 30th birthday and it definitely was a night to remember for all the good reasons! Steve and the team were absolutely brilliant from the get go, and the communication between his team and myself before the event was great with any questions that I had being answered promptly and professionally. They gave out personal letters to each of the characters/guests a week before the evening so they knew a little bit of the backstory plus suggestions on how to dress and how to act when you got there which definitely eased our minds going into it and what to expect. Now onto the night itself! It was absolutely brilliant and so much fun! It was great to have the actors come in and help us if we were stuck, plus the little notes that they gave each of the characters to give us prompts on what to say really helped keep the story alive, which would could be easily read and understood by all ages! The props which they also brought in were an added bonus and I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone looking to book and spice up their dinner party, you really will have an unforgettable evening! Thankyou so much!

Really played into their roles and made the night really enjoyable and realistic, I do wish the characters had more modern ones to choose from, there was a lot of young people at the hen do, so a younger selection of characters to pick and chose would’ve been better and easier to play into

We booked a murder mystery evening for a hen do and it completely exceeded our expectations! From start to finish it was entertaining, fun, and so immersive – the whole group was hooked straight away! The actors were incredible, keeping us laughing and guessing throughout the night while making sure everyone felt involved. It was the perfect mix of comedy, drama, and mystery, it created such a brilliant atmosphere, and was a great excuse to get dressed up into our characters!

The bride absolutely loved it, and all of us agreed it was one of the highlights of the weekend! If you’re looking for something unique, interactive, and unforgettable, I can’t recommend this company enough!

Great Experience

Great Experience! Wanted to try something different for my birthday. My friends and family were literally rolling on the floor with laughter and absolutely loved it. It brought out a totally unexpected side to everyone involved... everyone deep down, has an actor inside desperate to have a chance to shine! This gives them the perfect opportunity!

✨ An unforgettable experience from the comfort of our own home! ✨ We organised this event for my friend's hen party, and it was a massive hit with everyone involved. Communication was spot-on, with clear instructions throughout — even helpful suggestions on costumes and character behaviour to really bring the theme to life.

The actors, Anna and Steve, were full of energy and charm, and truly made the whole experience magical. Their presence elevated the event and kept everyone entertained from start to finish.

The planning and service were exceptional, and the whole evening was thoroughly enjoyed by all. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again — perfect for family gatherings across all age groups.

Thank you so much! 💖

A great night had by all!

I hosted a murder mystery meal for my hen do on Saturday. I was a bit nervous about organising it as I'd never done anything like this before but Steve was very helpful and answered all my questions either by phone or email v promptly. We all loved dressing up as our characters and I can honestly say I had the best night, we all laughed from start to finish, the two hosts were on time, helpful and funny. I would highly recommend this for a fun evening for any special occasion! Thank you!

Absolutely brilliant Murder Mystery Evening

We had a Murder Mystery dinner party for 12 people for a 60th birthday party. Absolutely brilliant evening. The actors were fun and engaging. They kept the evening moving so everyone was involved and knew what they were doing.
Previous to the evening itself, Steve was very helpful in dealing with the booking. Emails were replied to promptly. He answered all queries and provided detailed, clear information.

Prom party murder mystery

The communication from start to finish was prompt, clear and friendly. The actors arrived on time and the whole evening went without a hitch. We had a group of twelve 16 year old girls predominately and they absolutely loved it. We would definitely do this again.
