Who we are:  That Murder Mystery Girl was formed from a passion for creative entertainment and grew to encompass the greater Piedmont area. We create murder mysteries based on your group needs.  We've been solving Murder Mysteries for 26 years.

What makes us different:  Our characters are based on real-life historical figures and their stories.  Your guests personalities will shine through in their historical character.  

Why we do it: Fun! Fun! Fun!  Who doesn't like to dress up, be someone else, and escape from reality?  

How it works: You choose your theme from a selection of available plots, and we tailor it to your guest list.  Each guest receives an individual character dossier ahead of the mystery so they have the opportunity to study their character and choose their costume.  Guests arrive in character at the event and interact with other guests, sharing information about themselves and collecting information.  Vignettes will be acted during the evening by attendees that increase the drama and the fun. Sometime in the event, there will be a murder.  Guests will then use the information they have gathered to solve the murder and make an accusation.  There are no professional actors.   You may be the murderer.-YOU may be the victim.

Watch your back.  Because...
