Amatuer sleuths and history buffs should sign up for a Victorian murder mystery night with a difference at Nantclwyd y Dre, Ruthin, on Friday 24 June from 7pm – 9.30pm.
Headed by Ruth Moore Williams participants can explore the house and investigate each room for clues as part of this Victorian melodrama.
She explains: “In the few hours of darkness that separate June 21st, Midsummer’s Day, and June 22nd in 1851, a foul and terrible murder is committed in one of Ruthin town’s oldest and finest houses. In the garden of Nantclwyd y Dre lies the body of Mari Morris, murdered by an unseen hand.”
But help is at hand, budding detectives of the 21st century will be given the opportunity to
- Come in your best Victorian dress and roam the lovely historic building in your search for clues to this hideous drama,
- examine evidence that may lead to the discovery of the murderer or murderers and, even more than this, to
- participate in the re-enactment of some scenes in the story which may, or may not, bring the glow of 21st century enlightenment into the dark recesses of Nantclwyd’s mysterious past.
The cost of the evening is £10/person, £30 per team of 4. Pre-booking essential
