Murder Mystery Night at Ormesby Hall - Murder at First Bite: SOLD OUT

On Friday 3 October, in partnership with Tall Tales Mysteries, Ormesby Hall plays host to 'Murder At First Bite'.

  • Booking essential

A stormy night brings you to the home of a young couple. Just a few months ago they inherited the house from an ageing relative but what if there is someone secretly living in the cellar? Worse still, what if that person sleeps in a coffin and claims to be a vampire? Cue a knock on the door and a murder!

You’ll join Tall Tales Mysteries in the marquee in the grounds of Ormesby Hall, then you’ll be taken in your teams around the mansion, as you become detectives to help solve the murder! This is a night out not to be missed and perfect to enjoy with family and friends, with tickets including a 2-course meal. The evening begins with a 7pm arrival for a 7.30pm start.
