Murder Mystery Night at Ormesby Hall - Murder on the Menu

On Friday 30 August, in partnership with Tall Tales Mysteries, Ormesby Hall plays host to 'Murder On The Menu'.

  • Booking essential

Celebrity judges Jayne Fondant and Mario Mascarpone have arrived at the village fete to judge the cake competition, but someone has put murder on the menu and one of them won’t be leaving alive! Was it poison in the icing or a beating with the buttercream?

You’ll join Tall Tales Mysteries in the marquee in the grounds of Ormesby Hall. Then you’ll be taken in your teams around the mansion, as you become detectives to help solve the village fete murder!

This is a summer night out not to be missed and perfect to enjoy with family and friends, with tickets including a 2-course meal.

The evening begins with a 7pm arrival for a 7.30pm start.

Everything on the menu is gluten free with vegan and vegetarian options, allergens will be available at the event.
