🎤 Welcome to the Ultimate 80’s Murder Mystery Experience! 🎤WHO KILLED THE RADIO STAR?
Presented by Crime & Dine Mysteries
It’s the summer of 1987, and the Hawkins Town Mall food court is the hottest hangout in town. Neon lights glow, big hair is bigger than ever, and tonight the arcade is buzzing with excitement—because pop sensation Jesse Max is about to take the stage for his big concert!
But just as the music is about to begin, tragedy strikes. Someone in the mall won’t live to see the encore… and it’s up to YOU to figure out whodunit!
This isn’t just dinner and a show—your table becomes a team of detectives. You’ll question suspects, uncover secrets, and work through clues together. While this is very much a murder mystery theater experience, we’ve added a fun puzzle-solving twist inspired by escape rooms. Instead of escaping a room, your group will work through riddles, clues, and challenges that bring you closer to the killer’s identity.
