Team Building Events
Murder Mysteries are the perfect team building choice.
If you’re looking to upskill your team, cement learning or just have a really fun afternoon (or day) murder mysteries are the perfect team building choice.
We can supply scripts to run “in-house” or come to you with our team to provide a live action experience.
Murder mystery games involve the team working together (or working against each other) to solve a puzzle. Which means it’s possible to achieve many learning objectives from a murder mystery.
Just for fun, or a real learning opportunity. We can help.
Whether it’s just for a bit of fun, or whether you want a real learning opportunity we can help you and your staff to create enjoyable and engaging team building event.
We can work with you to find out exactly what you want to achieve and can break down your murder mystery to explain exactly HOW you can achieve those specific objectives. We can even provide facilitator’s guides, or facilitators on request.
We can add in forensic experiences, as well as provide role play and full immersion experiences for your staff.
There is always the option to custom write something to order. We can create unique team building scenarios just for you and the team to enjoy!

We had a fantastic weekend mainly because of the absolutely fabulous murder mystery provided by yourselves on the Saturday. It was absolutely Brilliant! The actors were fantastic and a real hoot. they engaged well with all the guests in a wonderful way and we\’ve had brilliant feedback from everyone who came saying what a memorable night it all was. I particularly want to thank Emma who has worked with me in the run up to the event providing suggestions to make the whole evening such a success. I will be using your services again and I am busy recommending you to everyone and everybody I meet. Do pass on special thanks to the actors who made everything so seamless and so much fun.

Our team was looking for a way to get together for an activity this past year, and we found Red Herring Events. They hosted an interactive murder mystery for our team and it was such a great experience! All of the actors were fantastic and kept everyone engaged. The team had a wonderful time, highly recommend!

We made the right call by having you guys as the actors to walk us through the script.
It went really well and I loved it! I have already received feedback from the others that they loved it too.
Thanks to you and to the actors who played the part very well!
Detective Event
Private Booking
I thought I was going to dinner to celebrate my friend, who I had not seen in 19 yrs, turning 40. Imagine my surprise when she added this into the mix! Imagine my bigger surprise when I discovered that she, who lives in LA, had contacted Red Herring Games, run by an old school friend back here in the UK! It was only when I saw the back to the script did I realise who had organised everything. It was such fun. A very well-organised and written event, brilliantly delivered by Lydia who really engaged with a room full of people she had never met before. The story played out very well, and with only some getting \”whodunnit\”. Everyone there got into the spirit and roles and with no one knowing who had ’dunnit’ until the very end. I highly recommend Red Herring Games to everyone, for every kind of event.
