Murder Mystery at Milestones Museum: Penny Dreadful

SHOCKING REVELATIONS IN BASINGSTOKE!
A town betrayed by a penny pen.

For five dreadful weeks, a scandalous serial has appeared on the book stall at Basingstoke Station, printed on cheap paper and sold for a single copper penny. Spring-Heeled Jack's Chronicle of Basingstoke claims to be written by the leaping phantom himself, and its pages are filled with villains: a Demon Milliner, a Robber of the Railway, a Wehr-Wolf of the Sawpit, a Foundling of the Forge and a Sweet-Shop Poisoness.

Each one is plainly someone we pass in the street every morning. The writer knows secrets no honest stranger could know. Someone among us is writing it.

Now a sixth instalment is promised, and it will name a Vampyre who has fed upon this town for years. Whoever is unmasked, it is said, will kill rather than see it printed.

On the night of 30 October, blood shall be spilt before the presses roll.

How it works

You are the townsfolk of Basingstoke, and no one is above suspicion.

  1. Gather your party. Come with friends or family and work as a team.
  2. Walk the streets. Roam the candlelit Victorian streets of Milestones Museum at your own pace.
  3. Question the accused. Talk to the suspects face to face and compare what each of them tells you.
  4. Name the Chronicler. Submit your party's guess, then find out at the end of the evening whether you were right.
