Short story:

“Aiden Abet” the leader of the Tracy Gang developed a scam that netted him $1m. However, once his victims caught on, he became a hunted man. The $1m was hidden in the Tracy Speakeasy and when it strangely reappears, it leads to murder! Unravel the mystery of the dead man walking, the letters from William Shakespeare and the literary weekend.

Long story:

It is the 1920s and you are a member of the notorious Tracy Gang. It has been one year since your last gang meeting and you are very keen to brag about your swindles and heists. The thing with gangsters is they love to trick each other as much as an unwitting victim! Soon there are some pretty angry people with a grudge to bare! Travis Dee a new member of the Tracy Gang is found dead! Shot on the first floor balcony. Many gang members had a score to settle but only one is the true murderer! Whodunit? Your guests will be given the job of working that out. Decipher the suicide note, discover the Shakespearian letter swindle and unravel the mystery of who killed Travis Dee! Would you make a good gangster?

Adult themes:

Gambling, swindling and cards are all a feature of the story.

Costumes:

Guests come dressed as a gangster, cabaret dancer, godfather, flapper, pimp, F.B.I, Scarface, hit man or any other 1920s style character.

Costumes and characters:

To make the game as easy as possible to organise your guests do not need to dress as any particular character. The costume they wear does not affect the character they play in the murder mystery. You allocate the murder mystery characters on the night of the party. This means that if guests are sick and can’t make it or extra friends want to come then there is no impact on running the game.
