What our customers say
Detective Event
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.
Death in space
A fantastic weekend. Met some really nice people in the breakout rooms. The murder mystery was excellent, well thought out, wonderful costumes and make up. It was exciting receiving the physical packs and a challenge to do the puzzles, although we tried, there were some we didn’t get and groaned loudly when "Jeff" showed us how to do them and the answers as the solution was so easy. The milky bar and the space ships were needed and a nice touch.
The food workshop and the cocktail making were a first for us and we thought the food delicious. I think next time I will order one of each cocktail so we could try both.
We were rubbish at the quiz, but really enjoyed participating. Thankfully our daughter Becky helped us with the escape room and we had our best score ever.
The visit to the observatory was very interesting and next time we go to Ireland we will definitely go in search of it to visit.
Well done to everyone who must have worked so hard to put this weekend together. We really enjoyed the challenge and look forward to our next one.
Amazon - Murder Mystery
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!
Private Event
Fantastic evening! The food, hotel rooms, dining, service and without a doubt the acting/plot were fantastic. Please pass on my regards to everyone involved in making last night a success.
Virtual Detective
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!
Virtual Interactive Mystery
Firstly I want to say a massive thank you to Jo, she was a great help throughout!
We had fun, especially considering we had to hold our event remotely. The group who had Jules as their actor really enjoyed their experience, she was engaging and helped the team really get into character.

Crime Pays
For companies with an eye on trends – you’ll know that murder mysteries have remained top of the best sellers list in media since the 1900s.
With a comsumer emphasis on dining at home and entertaining friends, buying British and the increased interest in puzzle solving and escape rooms, our murder mystery games and escape scenarios are perfectly placed to fill public demand, especially for brand activation events.
If you’re looking for a unique way to get your product to market, or create an experience that will get people talking – then we’re here to help.
Brand Activation
As other brands have found, adding a dash of murder to a regular product can provide a unique upsell for Christmas, or create a "limited edition" for a product that is otherwise languishing on the shelves.
By adding in a splash of puzzles, you can also create a unique touch point for customers who provide their emails to enter competitions or want to check their answers.
We’ve worked with groups around the globe creating unique mystery emails for a digital marketing campaign too – so it doesn’t just have to be a physical product. We’ve created brand activation events this way for a number of years ourselves.
