It was lots and lots of fun. More fun than any mystery dinner out and about.
Everyone dressed for their part. I made the meal suggested in the party box.
It was a whole evening of fun.
It inspired me in party throwing, so now whenever I have a get together with more than just a handful of people, there is always some “theme” as it were. Not always dress up, but for example, we have dessert parties, or wine tasting parties.
In fact, when I was looking for property to invest in on a 1031 exchange, I came close to buying an old house in a primo location for the main purpose of throwing mystery party weekends. The party is just right with about eight people. There is plenty of interaction, and everyone stays engaged.
I still wish I could do that – have a fine old house with room for eight overnight guests, in a great location, to hold mystery parties. Like, if you wanted to visit San Francisco and the Napa Valley – you would stay there as in a B & B, and Thursday night would be mystery party night! Or the third Saturday of the month, or whatever combination worked with the guests.
