A Wild West Murder Mystery Supper at the Paradise Saloon

Welcome to Dry Gulch, 1872. It’s the kind of town where the wind never stops blowing, the secrets never stay buried, and a smile doesn’t always mean someone’s friendly.

And this morning, Dry Gulch got even quieter.

The stillness was broken by the crackle of gunfire. Moments later, the townsfolk found Sheriff Take Noble face down in the dust, shot in the back.

Who would do such a thing?

Plenty of people.
Maybe even you!

The Story

Later that day, the people of Dry Gulch gather belly up at the Paradise Saloon. Some came to pay their respects. Some came to see what they can get away with.

But everyone is here for one reason:

To solve the crime.

You’ll hear rumors, weigh motives, follow clues, and try to figure out who took out the sheriff before the night is over. Alibis will get shaky. Finger-pointing will start. And somebody in the room knows more than they’re saying.

What to Expect

  • A full evening of interactive murder mystery fun.
  • A Western-themed storyline set in 1872.
  • Guests working together (and sometimes against each other) to uncover the killer.
  • Plenty of laughs, surprises, and “Wait… what?!” moments.

No acting experience needed. Just bring your curiosity and your best poker face.
