The Top 5 Reasons to pick a 90s theme for your Murder Mystery Party

If you are looking for the perfect retro night in with friends and family, look no further than the 90s for a fun and punny mystery that will have you dying to get the party started! The 90s was a decade of boy and girl-bands, fabulous outfits, and plenty of celebrity goss to keep you entertained, all of which makes it an excellent choice for a murder mystery.

Here are some of the key reasons why you should choose this era, and our games, for a majorly awesome night!

 

1 – Our favourite game: Spice Up Your Death – a Totally 90s Murder Mystery party game

I tell you what I want, what I really, really want! To introduce our most popular murder mystery Spice up your Death, a 90s music awards themed mingling murder mystery party game…

This game has outsold all our other games and garnered us some of the best reviews from incredible customers who have loved every minute of playing this game. It is a huge night for hit girl group the Space Girls as they sweep the music awards, and yet before long there is a murder on the dancefloor.

With more murders to follow, it is up to you as one of the musicians, celebrities, and other attendees of the after party to find out who the killer is among you, and who is just a wannabe.

 

2 – The outfits

One of the best parts of a murder mystery party with friends is getting your clobber sorted. Clothing items like bucket hats, plaid minis, and baggy trousers can be fun and easy to source and even more fun to wear. Head to the local charity shop, search the back of yours and your mum’s closet, and get ready to put together an outfit that Cher in Clueless would be proud of.

Can you get a better decade for fabulous outfits? As if!

 

3 – The tunes

With our popular poppy playlist on Spotify, all of your favourite tunes from the 90s are waiting for you to get jiggy with it and bust a move! From the Spice Girls to Destiny’s Child to Will Smith, there are plenty of songs out there that you will think are da bomb. See if you can remember all the dances that you used to do and get ready for a night that you’ll never forget.

 

4 – The characters

Some of the characters and celebrities in the 90s are still held dearly in our hearts today. With our totally 90s game you can get dressed up and enjoy playing roles inspired by some of your old heroes, crushes, and familiar faces. Get your union jack dress on, whip out the leopard print, and get ready to sing, dance, and act out all your favourite 90s friends.

 

5 – The extras

No retro sleepover would be complete without a game of truth or dare. With our 90s games you will find a series of extras including cocktail suggestions, invitations, and pretty fly games to keep the party going all night long. If you still need convincing about all the fun you can have playing a 90s murder mystery, check out our reviews and see what the dealio is for yourself!

This game was so much fun for my 30th birthday party. I had never participated in a game like this before so I was nervous how it would go. It went really smoothly and everyone had a blast!
