Murder Mystery Party at Ford House

About This Event

An interactive evening inspired by Eleanor Ford's legendary murder mystery parties inside the historic Main Residence.

What to Expect

• 1.You'll move through the historic Main Residence as actors drop in with clues and scripted moments. Pay attention to small details and share your theories during the reveal.
• 2.The vibe is intimate and interactive, but not a full improv marathon; most of the action happens in a few rooms, so you won't be wandering aimlessly.
• 3.Expect light refreshments rather than a full seated dinner; if drinks are offered, pace yourself so you can focus during scenes.
• 4.Plan to arrive a bit early to park along Lake Shore Road and follow museum staff into the mansion entrance; the starting point is in the Main Residence.
• 5.First timers should wear comfortable shoes since you may be standing and moving between rooms; bringing a small notebook to jot suspects and motives can help you keep track.
