This event is sold out, but tickets can still be purchased at the door. For your own safety, please bring a mask.

Come enjoy an ordinary Masquerade Ball. Absolutely nothing unusual will happen at this event. Since when has anything mysterious ever happened at a Masquerade Ball? That's right, never. I hear the Director may be doing something special though. Something about announcing a new game? I dunno. He just told me to write this, so whatever.

Costumes are strongly encouraged. Dossiers will be provided as usual, and the murder is scheduled for 6:25PM sharp. Murdering services are generously provided by ████████ LLC, and we thank them for the use of their trained hitmen. If you have need of murdering anyone, they would like to remind you that they have exceptionally competitive rates, in that they kill the competition.

Please RSVP ahead of time if you can, but you are welcome to bring guests if you like. Admission shall be $25.

Schedule is as follows:

4:00PM-6:00PM: Hope 46's Happy Hour will gladly sell you $4 alchohol of various sorts.

6:00PM: Mississippi Ballroom opens and event begins, mysterious dossiers begins filtering through the crowd by unknown means.

6:00-6:25PM: Socializing, awkward small talk, some dossiers get investigated.

6:25PM: Mr. Hennings, an heir to a large coal fortune, will be killed by his butler Keith for a mundane reason.

6:26PM: Crowd gasps, hunt for the killer is declared.

6:27-7:30PM: Crowd plays detective, tries to uncover a trite mystery, accusations and finger-pointing abound.

7:30PM-8:00PM: Ridiculously convoluted murder plot revealed, butler accused and brought away, roll credits.

We expect everything to follow this schedule exactly and have no deviations whatsoever from this script. This is to be a murder mystery that is BY THE BOOKS. That is, entirely expected and scripted and with no actual puzzle. I mean, since when have we ever added puzzles to things? That's right, never. We are not in any way associated with or known for making big, elaborate puzzles, and even if we were, we sure wouldn't use sarcasm or reverse psychology to tell you about them.

Cash/Credit bar will be available, and light refreshments will be served. Limited on-site parking available. Please RSVP so we know about how many dossiers to print and characters to write.
