The Dinner Detective Murder Mystery Show
Every Saturday in January
Hilton Garden Inn Cleveland Downtown
1100 Carnegie Avenue

The interactive comedy murder mystery show is the largest of its kind in the United States. Sit down for a scrumptious dinner while you try to solve a crime – the tables can turn at anytime, and you might find yourself a Prime Suspect before you even know it. There will be non-costumed actors, just to add to the intrigue and unpredictability of the show.

The audience member who guesses the name of the murderer before the big reveal will walk away with an amazing prize!
