‘Death on the Nile’ Murder Mystery Evening with The Alverton Hotel
14 March
Take your seats as we transport you to 1950s Egypt at this very special murder mystery evening in Cornwall.
Join us for our murder mystery in Cornwall. On Saturday 14th March, step through the grand oak doors of The Great Hall, into the heat of 1950s Egypt, for an unforgettable night at the luxurious Presidential Hotel in Luxor.
Join an extraordinary gathering of elegant hotel guests, charismatic locals, and glamorous passengers from a cruise liner docked overnight in the harbour. Beneath the warm desert evening and glittering chandeliers, cocktails flow, conversations spark, and tensions quietly simmer.
Whispers of intrigue, jealousy, and revenge weave through the crowd. Rumours swirl around a prominent Luxor resident—accusations of corruption, hidden motives, and dangerous secrets that refuse to stay buried.
As the night unfolds, revelations will surface, alliances will shift, and before the final toast is raised, someone will be murdered.
What to expect
Our opulent Great Hall will be totally transformed into the luxurious Presidential Hotel in Luxor, for our murder mystery in Cornwall. For £65 per person, mingle with the other attendees over an arrival tipple, before taking to your seats on shared tables for the main event. Enjoy a four-course dinner, served with a side of scandal, mystery, and plot twists.
Keep your eyes on the prize, as a new dramatic scene will unfold between courses, adding more puzzle pieces, clues and potential theories to the explosive plot. Corruption, hidden motives, and dangerous secrets will all be revealed. Who can you trust? It’s your job to crack the code, deliberate over the clues, and unmask the killer.
