Over the last few weeks we’ve announced some exciting new mystery themes for 2015-2016. For a change of pace, we thought we would revisit one of our most popular themes to date. Climb aboard; our next stop is Hogsmeade Station!

A year ago the wizarding world was shocked by a series of murders. No ordinary murders, these magical crimes occurred in the very halls of Hogwarts itself. Outside experts were brought in to investigate. The culprit was found and brought to justice. The matter was closed.

Or so we thought.

Then a traveling wizard was found dead in his room in the Hogs Head Inn, his face fixed in a horrified grimace. It didn’t take long before astute wizards realized the date held special significance – it was one year to the day from the first of what have become known as the Hogwart’s Homicides. A second victim was found the next night, and a third the night after that, each corresponding with a murder the year before.

The town of Hogsmeade is in an uproar. Terrified residents congregate in the Hogs Head and cast nervous glances into shadowed corners. Some claim to have sighted unusual apparitions. Some believe them to be the ghost of the Hogwarts murderer; others believe them to be the ghosts of the victims.

The townsfolk demand action, and have once again called in the Ravenwood Detective Agency for assistance.

Are these magical murders from beyond the grave? Or are they crimes more mundane? Will there be Butter Beer?

Join us February 5^th and 6^th, 2016 for the Haunting in Hogsmeade, and find out!

Tickets for Haunting in Hogsmeade are $100, and include Saturday night’s dinner. As with all of our mysteries, the event starts with dinner on Friday. Late arrivals will be accommodated as best as possible, but to enjoy the full experience please attempt to arrive early Friday evening.

And stay tuned for announcements of even more exciting mystery announcements for the 2015-2016 season!
