Riddle me this – what do our Ravenwood Detectives love more than solving a good mystery? Doing so while wearing a cape! We believe our agents are heroes – and they’re nearly all super – so they should feel right at home in our newest mystery adventure set amidst the pages of the comic books!

Even super heroes deserve a break every now and then. And what better way to blow off a little steam than with a New Year’s Eve celebration? One hero told another. Word got around on the sidekick’s network. The next thing you know, there’s a Super Hero New Year’s Eve party at Ravenwood Castle.

But you know how these things go. Wherever there is a gathering of super heroes, you’re sure to find super villains. So it should come as no surprise – though somehow it always does – that this party has a crasher. Just as the revelry kicks into gear, the celebration is interrupted with a tremendous BANG! and a flash of light. When the smoke clears, our heroes discover a large brightly wrapped – and suspiciously ticking – box in their midst. The note on the box reads:

Tick tock, tick tock, there’s no way to stop the clock.
The world’s last New Year’s is surely going to rock!

– The Scarlet Raven

Who, or what, is the Scarlet Raven? Can our heroes disarm the doomsday device? Or will this really be the last New Year’s Eve… ever?!

Tune in December 30^th & 31^st, same Bat-time, same Bat-channel! Dust off your utility belt, pin on your cape and join the Ravenwood Detective Agency for The Scarlet Raven’s New Year’s Nightmare to answer these questions and more!

Tickets for The Scarlet Raven’s New Year’s Nightmare are $100, and include Sunday night’s dinner. As this is a holiday mystery, the event starts with dinner on Saturday. Late arrivals will be accommodated as best as possible, but to enjoy the full experience please attempt to arrive early Saturday evening.

And stay tuned for more announcements about our exciting 2017-2018 mystery season!
