Can you and your friends uncover the truth before the final drink is poured?
Step inside the Ghost Light Bourbon Bar for an intimate, fully immersive murder mystery where the story unfolds all around you.
It is the 1920s, and behind the curtain of the theatre, ambition, jealousy, money, and secrets are beginning to collide. Vaudeville star Mary Alexander has dreams of escaping to Hollywood. Her controlling manager, Victor Collins, has other plans.
The evidence seems obvious. The truth is anything but.
With only a small group of guests inside the Ghost Light, there is no traditional stage and no safe seat in the audience. Clues appear where you least expect them, and everyone in the room becomes part of the investigation.
Even your bartender is part of the story. Order a drink, listen carefully, question what you hear, and keep an eye on the clues around you.
At the Ghost Light Bourbon Bar, you won’t simply watch a murder mystery. You’ll step inside one.
The drinks are real. The suspects are within arm’s reach. And somewhere in the room is the truth.
