Company details

  1. Corporate Entertainment Service

Written by the company

The Murder Mystery Meals Company have been in business since 1996 offering fun Murder Mystery evenings and weekends. We run over 450 events a year and offer a nationwide service. We can organise a venue for you or we can come to your home, a holiday cottage, office, hall, hotel. We are completely flexible. With our smaller events up to 35 guests with two actors we can offer an event where you all get a character and one of you is Murderer!! We do not tell the Murderer who they are so we don't spoil it for one person having to keep a secret. You all follow the clues and think "Do you know what, it might be me!!" For larger events for up to 140 people we will still try to involve some of the guests as characters alongside our 5 actors. All of our events provide a fun filled evening that you will be talking about for days.

Superb evenings entertainment!

Both actors arrived on time and got into part quickly. They made the evening run extremely smoothly, whilst still allowing time for fun and jokes. This was the second time using this company and they were equally fantastic as before. We would highly recommend them to anyone.

Highly recommended!!

Professor Howard Carter and his assistant Nefertiti were the most incredible hosts, to my Dads 60th 1920’s murder mystery event at Chilston Park Hotel. The evening was so much fun, and very organised, despite the rowdiness of our group!
Thank you, thank you!!

Absolutely fantastic time celebrating Dads 60th birthday in fancy dress.

Absolutely fantastic time celebrating by dads 60th. The two actors were amazing, they kept the storyline going throughout the evening bringing both drama, suspense and comedy. We simple had the best time and Steve who organised everything by email was also great. Thank you so much. Highly recommend for any special occasion. We had a smashing time solving the murder of solomons ring in our 1920s costumes in the beautiful backdrop of Chilston Park Hotel in Kent.

What a great evening

I’d just like to pass on our thanks to professor Carter and Queen Nefertiti for looking after us so well last night. We had such a laugh. Everyone had a great evening. We were all a little nervous but they were well organised and kept the show on the road. Well done and thank you.
Best wishes

Highly Recommended

Booked these people for my 30th birthday and they didn't disappoint. The actors were brilliant, very friendly and made the night flow with ease. They stayed in character the whole time, which made our job as guests to stay in character easier too! There were lots of jokes and fun banter between the actors and the guests, making the night more enjoyable. Prior to the event, any questions I had were answered without judgment of how silly the questions might have been!

Absolutely fantastic evening

We recently booked Murder Mystery Meals for a hen party and they did not disappoint! The actors were wonderful - very friendly, enthusiastic and great fun. Arrived on time and helped explain everything with ease. We laughed from beginning to end and had a great evening. We never caught the killer (too much wine!) but that did not detract from the enjoyment and the brilliant script. I cannot recommend MMM highly enough and will definitely use them again!

Murder Mystery Dinner

From start to finish the correspondence from Steve was exceptional. We booked months in advance for a mixed hen party of 20 guests. We were told our characters two weeks in advance and left to our own devices around costumes. The actors tuned up promptly and we started the night. We were all given parts to play and it was hillarious. The actors kept everyone on track and it was a surprise to everyone who turned out to be the murderer. I would highly recommend this company they were not only great actors, but also highly professional.

Hen party murder mystery

We really enjoyed our murder mystery! They made some great personalisations for the hen party and kept us all on track. The hen party plot was silly fun and great value for money. Steve was accommodating to all our requests prior to the event and I would recommend murder mystery meals.

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Steven was very prompt, polite and organised. The actors on the day were fantastic and drummed up lots of excitement. Everyone commented on how different it was but also how funny it was. There was a big group of 20ish women and it definitely broke the ice and has given us all something to remember. Thanks so much to the team, we loved it!

We had our Murder Mystery at the Village Hotel Bournemouth

We had our Murder Mystery at the Village Hotel Bournemouth last weekend as part of Emma's hendo and had a fab time. The actors were funny, the storyline kept us engaged throughout. The breaks with food in between gave us time to discuss the plot. We had a great time and plenty of laughs when everyone got into their characters!
