Last week, we launched our fun new experience “Barcelona Murder Mystery Night” based on the game Murder at the Four Deuces, it is a rip roaring 1920’s gangster mystery game with lots of murder, bribery and back stabbing to be had. Some of the guests include gangsters, politicians, singers and gamblers. The scene is set in a stunning Catalan country home which stems back to the 12th Century and has the charm and character to make the perfect setting for a murder mystery evening. With various rooms and gardens to play out different scenes in it allows the game to keep moving as well as providing a fantastic dining experience to combine with the game play.
On arrival, everyone was given character booklets and an amount of money. Their job was to get familiar with the characters and then “role play” based on the information provided. We saw the real acting skills in the group as they expertly improvised the roles of sassy dames, wily socialites and double dealing detectives. During the introductions, we served aperitifs and cava against the backdrop of 1920´s classic tunes to help loosen the inhibitions and free the creative spirit!
During dinner the lights went out and the murder was committed. In the 2 hour open bar that followed there was an avalanche of accusations, questions and bribing as our group tried to get to the bottom of the mystery. We also laid on a roulette wheel and a poke tabler for those who just wanted to gamble away in the speakeasy atmosphere on Mass Coll.
At the end of the night there was a summary and to the surprise of the whole group we revealed who the murderer really was.
This is a fun activity for groups of friends and colleagues who want to do something a little different in Barcelona. It is a fantastic ice-breaker and designed to be pure fun!
