The New Murder Mystery Maniacs is here!

Friday, June 5th, 2009

Today the mix and mingle murder mystery party has been reinvented. It has been a year in the making, and are proud to announce that new murder mystery maniacs is here. We have been working tirelessly for almost a year to create what we hope will provide the best tools available for both our party hosts and guests. After listening to our customers we have added some key features:

1. An online invitation platform. This will let you send email invitations to your guests to find out who can attend your event. It also allows you to track and monitor the RSVP status of each guest.
2. Online character selection – That’s right folks. You can now pick and choose every character in your event.
3. Digital Costume Delivery. This feature lets the host send the costume ideas to their guests immediately vs. waiting for the crew to print and ship the costume ideas in paper format.

What hasn’t changed is the crew will still be responsible for printing and shipping your entire event. The best part is you just pick the characters, and our team will put it together, and fedex you all the supplies.
