WHAT MAKES THIS A PARTY TO DIE FOR?
With a Murders Inc party, even the host gets to play without knowing who the murderer is! You can choose any character who isn’t set to be murdered and you can also choose not to read the Conclusion and make your accusations at the end of the evening, just like everyone else.
Murders Inc loves for everyone to be involved as much as possible, this means that there are three murder victims instead of just one (and each will get to dramatically act out their death).

SAMPLING FROM THE INTRODUCTION
Welcome to all of our lovely guests. The year is 1920, we are two years past the ending of the brutal World War, and people finally feel free to live their lives again. Prohibition takes over the United States, leaving the hangovers to the creative. Rebellion is brought out among the people, creating a love of jazz music, flappers, and dancing. Organized crime runs rampant, and the Mafia is on the rise. The streets are filled with moonshine, bootleggers, gangsters, and, dare I say it, murder.
Welcome to the Speakeasy, which is, of course, owned by the most feared gangster in town, Marilyn Moretti. We were all chosen to be here for a reason, and we should act as her honored guests. While most of you are among the rich and the famous, there are quite a few who dabble among the conniving and the desperate. There are rich histories to be learned and scandalous secrets to be discovered. We had high hopes that tonight would go off without a hitch, but, given the morally ambiguous nature of our guest list, we understand why that simply could not be the case.
With that being said, at the end of the night, three of you will be dead.
