WHY THE DINNER DETECTIVE IS Raleigh - Durham, NC'S #1 MURDER MYSTERY EXPERIENCE

You'll tackle a challenging crime while you feast on a fantastic dinner, and the criminal is lurking somewhere in the room with you. Before the night is over, you just might find yourself as a Prime Suspect.

Dinner and a Show, All in One Ticket

Every admission includes our multi-course plated dinner, wait staff gratuity, the full interactive show, and a prize package for the Top Sleuth — no hidden fees, no surprises.
