If you are the host/ess of a murder mystery, you'll need to download invites and booklets. It's a good idea to read through these first, so you can then assign more eccentric characters to your braver guests. Send out the invites well in advance, if one person is unable to attend, the story will not work so a replacement will need to be found.

The invites suggest your guests dress up for the occasion in costume appropriate to their character. Although this is not essential, guests should find no need to pay out for special fancy dress, as most costumes are every day things you can find at home (sometimes)
