What is a Halloween murder mystery party?
A Halloween murder mystery party is, well... a murder mystery game with a Halloween theme!
Like other murder mystery nights, groups of friends gather together to solve a fictitious murder. The game is interactive, as players take turns reading from their scripts, and it takes place over several rounds – until the players work out, who committed the murder, how and why they did it – and the mystery is solved! 🕵️♂️
With a Halloween-themed murder mystery game – the concept is the same, but the whole game is customized to be extra spooky! 👻
So dust off your witch's hat and sharpen your pumpkin carving knives – the You Dunnit personalized murder mystery game builder will help make this the best Halloween party ever (online or in real life!).

Halloween treats & party food
#4: Visiting your kitchen instead of the shops for your Halloween murder mystery party candy doesn’t have to be stressful (or even that unhealthy).
In fact, some of the best treats are super simple to make.
- Marshmallow Dead Heads – simply dip marshmallows in melted white chocolate (with food coloring for your scary greens and oranges) then decorate with frosting and put on a stick. Get a great recipe for marshmallow heads
- Rotten Apples – OK, so they’re not actually rotten. But there’s nothing like a gummy worm stuck on a toffee apple to make kids scream. Make your own gummy worm apples
- Banana Mummies – these are bananas simply drizzled with melted white chocolate with mini M&M’s for the eyes. Check out this banana mummies recipe
