Montana Smith
and the curse of the Golden Crocodile
Montana Smith has snatched the Golden Crocodile of the Amazon from its South American home. Now it’s about to be unveiled at the Municipal Museum of Natural History, but everyone’s been acting rather strangely. Could it be the dreaded Curse of the Golden Crocodile? Hmm? Join us for the gala event of the season to find out (but don’t turn your back on the museum staff).

Murder Mystery at the Castle
Murder Mystery Dinners begin with seating at 7pm. Tables are set up for groups of 6 or 8 up to about 12 people. If you are a smaller group you may be seated with other guests. Being in a group setting makes the event more interesting as you share clues etc.
Once seated, the first course will be on the table which includes salad & fresh breads served with tapenade, hummus & butter. The cast will mingling in a meet & greet with the guests, in character, and you are free to ask them questions, check for clues at your table or other tables or even volunteer to yell out a line later! Or just sit back and watch the fun unfold!
Following the first act, dinner is served 'family style' with platters of roast beef, pan roast chicken, whipped potatoes, rice pilaf, penne pasta with Marinara/vegetables/basil/parmesan cheese and refills are offered.
At the conclusion of the second act we serve dessert, our flourless chocolate cake appropriately named 'Death by Chocolate' with fresh berry sauce. The shows concludes and is followed by awards for best & worst picks of "who-done-it".
The entire event lasts just less than 3 hours. It's a ton of fun and best enjoyed with a group of people.​​​
​
Tickets are only available by calling the Castle. If you are looking to put a group together we recommend one person/couple purchases their tickets first under their name. Then as your friends call in they can request to be seated with you. The dining room is mostly set up with round tables that seat 8 people. Some tables are available up to 12 people. Groups larger than 12 will be split between adjacent tables. Come join the fun!!!
