5 Skills That Can Be Used at Murder Mystery Parties

Murder mystery parties aren’t like your average party. While they still offer a fun experience, quirky, themed food options, and the ability to catch up with old friends, they also require more thinking and effort from guests to work together to solve the mystery. In this blog post, East Coast Murder Mystery shares five skills that can be used at our events.

Here are 5 of our favorite skills you can use at your next murder mystery party:

  1. Curiosity: Because individuals must put on their detective hat and use their problem-solving knowledge, curiosity is always a helpful skill to have. This allows guests to always have an open mind and ask questions to figure out the mystery.
  2. Team Player: During these events, it is beneficial to work together. Other guests might be able to provide key information that, combined with your own ideas, can lead you on a path to solving. Without teamwork, it makes the process more difficult.
  3. Detail-Oriented: Missing the smallest of details can be detrimental. Therefore, we think that being detail-oriented is crucial at every murder mystery party. Paying close attention to all the clues will allow you to be able to start off on the right track.
  4. Verbal Communication: Being able to effectively communicate with the rest of the guests can be helpful as well. It might come down to trying to figure out which information you should tell other guests and which you shouldn’t. In this situation, you must choose what is better for yourself personally and the rest of the team.
  5. Positivity: Like with any problem you’re facing, it is always important to stay positive throughout the entire process. This allows you to analyze the mystery easier because you are much more likely to be open-minded about finding solutions to the problem.
