Murder Mystery Party Kit Details
Description
Zombies everywhere! But this is no ordinary killing...
Backstory
You and your guests are the unfortunate inmates and staff at Penderghast Asylum, a facility for the criminally insane that has been turned over to the tender care of Dr. Abraham Weiler, who is using the inmates as research subjects in his quest to find a cure for the zombie virus that is ravaging the world.
Murder!
It appears that someone—or something—doesn’t approve of what’s going on at Penderghast. What should have been a night of routine research turns deadly, resulting in one of the unfortunate staff members to join the ranks of the living dead.
Solving the Mystery
The murder was witnessed by a room full of zombies; piecing together the puzzle would be simple were it not for the fact that each of these witnesses is irredeemably insane. Now the remaining staff will need to separate what really happened from the delusions and hallucinations of the undead inmates!
Characters
There are 32 primary suspects in this mystery, however only 10 are required to play the game. The host or hostess will play the role of the narrator and run the game. Read the "How To Play" section for more information on how to play an expanded game with more than 32 guests.
* = Optional character
Human Male Roles
- Dr. Abraham Weiler: A renowned biologist and psychologist, Dr. Weiler is actually something of a mad scientist.
- Dr. Gerald Featherton: Dr. Featherton is Dr. Weiler’s research assistant.
- Dr. Mordecai Fern: Dr. Fern is one of the founding staff members of the asylum, originally hired by Dr. Penderghast years ago.
- Jeremiah Marsh: Jeremiah is one of the orderlies, responsible for maintaining security and keeping the patients and staff safe from themselves and each other.
- *William Worth: William Worth (“Old Willy” to most of the staff) is the groundskeeper and janitor of the asylum.
- *Morgan Byers: Morgan is another orderly, generally tasked with escorting inmates to and from Dr. Weiler’s lab.
- *Alex Johnson: Alex is the third orderly. He is a large, quiet man whose soft voice and easy smile belie his scarred and fierce exterior.
Human Female Roles
- Dr. Erica Orville: Dr. Orville is Dr. Weiler’s second research assistant.
- Delilah Morrison: Head Nurse Morrison is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day maintenance of the ward.
- Eliza Satchet: Nurse Satchet is one of several original staff members who continue to work under Dr. Weiler.
- Mia Chekov: Mia is the Penderghast cook, a position that has become particularly unenviable given the rather bizarre new dietary requirements of the inmates.
- *Deanna Mason: Deanna assists Old Willy in the upkeep of the Asylum.
- *Carolyn Sinclair: Carolyn is an intern from a prestigious medical school on the inland.
Zombie Male Roles
- *Alfred Fitzgerald: Diagnosed with Schizophrenia with Delusions of Persecution.
- *Curtis Buchanan: Diagnosed with Kleptomania and Antisocial Personality Disorder.
- *Dylan Manning: Diagnosed with Schizophrenia and Cotard Delusion.
- *Gregory Bates: Diagnosed with Suicidal Depression.

- *Quentin Montgomery: Diagnosed with Schizophrenia with Grandiose Delusions.
- *Brady McCormick: Diagnosed with Schizophrenia with Grandiose Delusions.
- *Lucas Bishop: Diagnosed with Schizophrenia with Delusions of Control.
Zombie Female Roles
- *Kendra Chapman: Diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder coupled with Bibliomania.
- *Alison Townsend: Diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder.
- *Cassandra Adkins: Diagnosed with total Amnesia.
- *Heather Pittman: Diagnosed with Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
- *Isabel Gomez: Diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder.
- *Lillian Ericson: Diagnosed with Schizophrenia with Parasitic Delusions.
- *Sabrina Ingram: Diagnosed with Schizophrenia with Paranoia.
- *Vanessa Copeland: Diagnosed with Schizophrenia with Grandiose Religious Delusions.
- *Wendy Barnes: Diagnosed with Schizophrenia with Delusions of Persecution.
Extra Players
- *Investigator (male or female): Additional players have the option of playing the role of "Investigators". In this role the players are not suspects and do not have character backgrounds but can question the suspects and try to solve the mystery along with the other players.
How to Play
Follow these steps to host this mystery:
- Each guest will each assume the role of a particular character
Mystery Parties involve a combination of improvisational acting, storytelling, and creative problem solving. Each guest will play the part of that character throughout the course of the game. Each character has specific personality traits, goals, secrets, and information, all of which are included in the character sheet; a big part of the fun is getting into character and taking on a new, exciting role.
- A mysterious Event will occur
At some point during the party, an Event will occur that will force the players to come together in order to solve a problem or unravel a mystery. Traditionally, the Event in question will be the murder of one of the characters (as played by a guest), but the parties crafted by Playing With Murder often use this basic framework to accommodate different types of Events, thereby ensuring that your guests will be surprised and entertained (even if they are veteran murder mystery party players).
- Solve the mystery!
Your guests will need to use the information that their characters know (as well as additional clues that are provided during the game) to solve the mystery or overcome the problem posed by the Event. Typically this culminates in the guests voting on the identity of the murderer, but again, different parties will have different specific goals. All of our parties also come complete with additional subgames (treasure hunts, unique character goals and special puzzles) that are guaranteed to keep the action intense and your guests motivated and focused.
Expanded Game For Large Groups
If you have extra players, there are two ways that you can accommodate everyone:
- Investigator Role - Additional players have the option of playing the role of "Investigators". In this role the players are not suspects and do not have character backgrounds but can question the suspects and try to solve the mystery along with the other players. Expanded Games include a PDF guide that explains how to use the Investigator role, as well as printable character sheets and name tags for anyone that is playing an Investigator.
- Multiple Groups - It is also possible to break your guests up into groups and play multiple instances of the game at the same time. The game will more or less happen the same way; the host makes announcements and each group moves their game forward simultaneously based on the host's instructions. It's good to have one assistant in each group to answer questions and facilitate gameplay within the group. This method provides a more intimate experience for your guests, who get better acquainted with a smaller group and participate in a more digestible story.
Please contact us if you'd like more information about how to run your party using the Multiple Groups method.
Both the standard and expanded games are included with the purchase of any game kit.

Spooktacular Fun!
Teens at the Byron Public Library had a spooktacular time at the zombie murder mystery! The annual mystery event is the teen department's biggest program of the year. In fact, the Illinois Library Association featured the group pic on their social media accounts.
- Two laboratories were set up for the participants- they started in one and ended in the second.

Fantastically & Frightfully FUN!
The Zombie Mystery party was a total success? We had 25 people attend and served a buffet-type dinner of Zuppa Toscana, Taco Soup, and Pumpkin Soup with bread, rolls, charcuterie boards, veggie trays, and plenty of desserts. The decor was spooky and completely set the scene for a fun filled evening. The narrator of the party added in a few second-death murders and resurrections of zombies just to add to the excitement and include everyone. The main murder occurred after dinner and the sleuthing began. It was a fantastically fun evening right before Halloween.
- A buffet of delicious soups, charcuterie boards with meats, cheeses, crackers, breads, veggie trays in the shape of a skeleton, Red-Blood Punch with Dry ice, and a variety of delicious desserts.
- The entire basement floor was covered with paper in a dungeon-tomb like design. There were floating candles from the ceiling, spooky "heads" (masks) lining the book shelves, skeletons sitting on couches and chairs, and various glass containers filled with scientific fluids and equipment.

Impressed by my friend's commitment to their roles
We had so much fun! We got 13 people involved, and I was truly impressed at my actor friend's ability to be in character, and for the murderer to keep the secret! I highly recommend inviting friends who know how to stay in character (I'm certainly not the best at it ha!) We had one of the zombies in act 2 take some creative control over the character as well. So fun!
- We had meatballs that we used to "keep away the zombies" haha. Everything else was optional!
- We did not have a huge variety of decorations, but everyone came dressed up in their costumes, and we had some good zombie makeup!

Such a hit!
We played the Zombie Canibal Asylum party for a work function (mental health professionals lol) and it was a huge hit! Not too much work to set up, and didn't require any practicing for implemtation. Most people wore costumes which made it so great, and I used play medical supplies for props which people also enjoyed. We ended up only having 10 people attend, but I loved that you can have 30+ people as well! Would definitely recommend.

We did this as a (Sweet) Vaccine 16 party. It was a lot of fun. We had 3 people guess the killer out of 15.
- We had a lot of creepy laboratory Halloween decorations that we put up, along with a microscope and some chemistry set items. We used grey streamers to section off some of the lab for the undead inmate holding cells.

Haven't laughed like that in a long time!
Zombie Cannibal Asylum - we played this as a virtual murder mystery. It does require some pre-planning on the part of the narrator/organizer. You will need to read through the manual and distribute the character info to each player. I scanned & emailed and labeled documents by the scene or DO NOT OPEN. Your pre-planning will pay off. The game went fairly smooth.
ACT I in virutal setting is primarily an introduction of your character so everyone knows your roll at Penderghast Asylum.
ACT II is primarily interrogations. Because there is no real script for interrogations, your characters must be animated and have a great imagination. A few times I had to remind them of the evidence to get them to continue interrogating based on evidence. Since this was virtual and there was not a scavenger hunt, I made pdf of internet pictures of the evidence and assigned the evidence to a character who shared what they found and where. We laughed all through the game.
I will say that 8 players are required and up to 32 can play, but zombies are not part of your required eight. It is better if you have at least 3-4 zombies. We only had one. She was great, but more would have helped make interrogations a bit more comical. Dressing in character also will make your party so much more fun. Everyone text me and thanked me for a great evening of laughing and murder mystery. It was a success.

- Mia, the chef had kitchen and food props in our virtual murder myster. She had gingerbread cookies as human treats she made for zombies. A 5lb bag of flour with skull and cross bone label. A set of butcher knives when someone ruffled her feathers.

Zombies like brain cake
We had an amazing time! We were celebrating 2 birthdays and Halloween so we had a rather large group (about 25 people) but everyone was engaged throughout. The zombies were the highlight of the show when they took on their character and gave their account of what went down.
- We made a lasagna, salad, and charcuterie board for dinner and finished it off with a brain cake!

Played It on a Halloween party
I'm from Brazil, and none of my friends knew what a Murder Mystery Game was. Some of them also don't speak english, so I had to translate the whole game, but it was worth the trouble. We didn't dress up as the characters because it was a regular Halloween party, but everyone got in character really well. The game isn't difficult, but my folks had a hard time resolving it, probably because we were playing with 24 people. The characters are really fun, especially the zombies, and I loved the part that they're interviewed. We are planning in buying more games like this, everyone loved It.
- We didn't do anything special for the menu, just regular Halloween treats
- Regular Halloween stuff with a little bit more blood.

It was a lot of fun setting up for this murder mystery. This is the first time I’ve used this company and I liked the creativity of the story line. HOWEVER, I didn’t find that the narrative translated smoothly into the main event. I actually went over every characters instructions and added more details to it so that they would be able to obtain more information in act 2. For some of the characters, they were instructed to do nothing for act 1, and I thought that that wouldn’t be fun for them and hence i changed it up a bit.
- We made a hanging body out of plastic bag! And for the scavenger part of it, we made it into an escape room so that it will be more difficult. The clues found in the scavenger hunt were originally just pieces of paper, but I made them into real life props.
