Imagine being invited to a mysterious costal Fort by an enigmatic host… with a room of curious guests your host never appears… the clock is ticking, and you must work as a team to investigate what happened. Well, that is exactly what will happen when you join Torchlight Mysteries for a truly immersive Murder Mystery at Newhaven Fort.
As you make your way into the heart of the Fort you will emerge into 1940s England and everyone in the Town is doing what they can for the War Effort. But behind all the facades are dark secrets and everyone is not quite as they appear. You will be tasked to interrogate the suspects in the magnificent setting of Newhaven Fort and find out which of the guests could be capable of murder.
Arrive in your finest for the 1940s tea dance... but someone will not make it to a second cup of tea. As the sound of Dame Vera fills the air you realise your host has disappeared and you will have one hour to find out what happened before the police turn up. Will you be able to solve this baffling case in time? Worst still will the tea and biscuits run out?
Use your best sleuthing skills to piece together the trail of clues as you make your way around the Fort, and after you have interrogated the suspects, you must reach your conclusion before night curfew is sounded.
Further Information
On arrival the staff will welcome you with a cup of tea so you can have your first glimpse of the suspects. When the host does not appear you will have one hour to speak to the suspects - explore the Fort and see if you can work out what happened to the host. Then with everyone assembled in the Romney Hut you will then have a chance to voice your theories. A unique way to explore the Fort by torchlight and a great family escape room puzzle on the scale of a costal fort.
Toilets are available during the event. You will be moving between floors and this will involve some stairs.
