Halloween visitors to Gloucestershire’s Sudeley Castle are being invited to step back in time to solve a fully immersive Victorian murder-mystery. 

The special event, taking place on Halloween itself (Saturday 31 October) includes exclusive after-hours access to the castle and gardens, a themed cocktail and three-course bowl meal, and the chance to engage in a Q&A with the murder suspects. 

As darkness descends over Sudeley Castle on Halloween night, you're invited to step back in time to Victorian England for an unforgettable evening of intrigue and deception played out within the Castle and grounds.

A shocking murder has been committed, and the killer remains at large. Guests will follow clues through the atmospheric gardens, historic rooms, hidden corridors and the Chapel, where Queen Katherine Parr lies entombed. 

Along the way, you'll encounter suspicious Victorian characters, uncover long-buried secrets and piece together the evidence in a race to identify the culprit and solve the crime.

Once the investigation is complete, guests gather for victuals in the Castle Coach House, a final opportunity to compare theories, question the suspects one last time and decide who you believe is guilty before the dramatic reveal.
