Make Halloween A Monthly Event With A Murder Mystery Dinner Party

Pirates are lucky, they get to play dress-up all yearlong. For the rest of us, Halloween is our only chance to experience what it feels like to be something or someone we're not. To make your life a little more exciting the rest of the year, use a murder mystery party as an excuse to invite your friends over for a memorable evening. It may be the only time when John Smith the accountant can become Jack Hammer the cottage builder.In order to make a seamless image transition, you and your guests will need a great costume. Finding a costume will allow you and your guests to use a skill rarely employed: creativity. After finding out your character, your guests often rediscover that closet in the basement, combine ideas at a local second-hand clothing store, or dig up that neglected old wedding dress.
While reluctant to admit it, most adults like to get dressed up in to unfamiliar clothing. They like it even more when you combine this with dinner and meeting new people. So it's time for you to get out your address book and plan your next (or first) murder mystery party. But when can you host this dinner party?
Typically, we see sales of our murder mystery games spike before Halloween and then before and after Christmas. This is confirmed by Google Insight if you were to search for the term "Murder Mystery". The connection between Halloween, costumes and a murder mystery party is easy to understand. But what about X-Mas? Is there something about Christmas, Boxing Day or perhaps New Year's that encourages people to get dressed up into unusual costumes? The appeal of a good old-fashioned role-playing game seems to be the right recipe when you get a group of people together over the holidays. But do you really need to wait for the holidays or Halloween to invite your friends over? People can get together every weekend and unwind and rediscover the actor/actress within.
Excuses to play a Halloween Murder Mystery party do not need to be substantial or groundbreaking. You do not need to have a baby, reach the age 50 or meet the President of the United States. Instead you could celebrate a birthday, have a fun house-warming party or try out your mother's famous stew recipe. In fact, one of the best ways to make your co-workers jealous in March is to let them know that this weekend you're hosting a murder mystery party.
So take action and become the hero of the next dinner party. Show them how well you can cook and remind them that getting together with friends doesn't require a special spot on the calendar.
