Get Lit: M**der Most Heartbroken

Who doesn't LOVE a M**der mystery?

This Valentine’s Day, join us for Get Lit: M**der Most Heartbroken, an exciting M**der mystery event where heartbreak takes a deadly turn. Whether you're single, coupled, or somewhere in between, you'll step into a world of literary intrigue, unraveling a tale of love gone wrong...

Work solo or team up with fellow sleuths to decipher clues, navigate surprising twists, and piece together the truth behind the crime of passion. Test your strength at the Shatter Your Sorrows station, where you’ll decorate a plate with vibrant expressions of your emotions before ceremoniously shattering it in our love-themed pop-up rage room.

Enjoy beer, wine, and the night’s specialty cocktail, The Breakup Letter, a delicious tequila based drink! Non-alcoholic options are also available.

Bring your curiosity and a sharp eye—this is one Valentine’s Day you'll never forget. Will you crack the case, or will the heartbreak remain unsolved?
