Murder at the Juice Joint

This weekend my sister was having a Murder Mystery theme party. I have never been to one before so I was really looking forward to it. The theme of this one was Murder at the Juice Joint, it was based on the 20's prohibition, so we were partying in a "speakeasy."

Here we have the "boys" of the Juice Joint.
Left to right- Chief Cameron the Chief of Police, Mayor Biggs who is none other but the mayor, Cy Ramsey who is Nick's henchman and the bouncer at the Juice Joint, Bernie Booze who is the bootlegger, South side Sal the south side mob boss, and Notorious Nick who is the north side mob boss.
And here we have the ladies of the Juice Joint
Left to right- P.I. Pinkerton the private investigator, Molly Moll the hoochy gold digger who is Nick's lady, Lieutenant Lucille the lieutenant on the police force, Kitty Cocktail is Cy's girlfriend and loudmouth, Rosie Marie the owner of the Juice Joint, and Cindy Butt the cigarette girl.
The night started out with socializing and getting to know the characters over dinner. Then we played out the night. Well, until someone was murdered that is! Notorious Nick was shot halfway through the night. Oh no! Poor guy, but my character was not in good with him, so I was secretly happy he died... After he died, we had to talk to the different people and try to figure out who may have done it.
Only the murderer knows who they are. The goal is for everyone to figure out who did it, and for the murderer to cover his butt! The P.I.s job is to get info out of everyone and pin someone with the murder. By the end of the night everyone has lied to someone and been lied to about what they "know." Its really funny the stories that people come up with.
The murderer ended up being the Chief of Police, with my tommy gun that was stolen from my warehouse in a police raid.
It was really fun messing with people and trying to figure out who is lying to you and who is in good with who. Its almost like real life ;) Everyone had a really great time playing their part, and we hope to do it again sometime soon!
