The creature or creatures have been responsible for all sorts of deviltry, including the disappearance of livestock and, most recently, of Mitchell and Susannah Miller&#8217;s youngest daughter. Now, several residents of the Barony have <b>retreated to Shufflemoore Manor<\/b>, seeking the protection of Baron Castaign. Several visitors have also appeared, including a trio of wandering Gypsies and a hunter who has offered up her services in tracking down and slaying the beasts that are terrorizing the Barony.<\/p>\n<h4>A Reluctant Protector<\/h4>\n<p><b>This party is divided into two primary segments.<\/b> During the <b>first portion<\/b> of the evening the guests arrive at Shufflemoore Manor, just as a terrible storm begins building up outside. The players in the adventure include Baron Castaign and his family and servants, villagers and common folk from the surrounding Barony, and various travelers who are passing through. Though the <b>Baron himself is a gloomy, somber man<\/b> with no love for company, propriety and decorum dictate that he must provide accommodation for those in need. With the storm gathering outside, Baron Castaign reluctantly offers to feed everyone dinner and let them spend the night.<\/p>\n<h4>Murder!<\/h4>\n<p>After dinner, the guests retire to their rooms to sleep. Shortly before midnight, they are awakened by a shriek of terror and find that <b>the maid, Luella, has been killed<\/b> in her bed, drained of all blood. Suspicions are immediately raised that one of the company is, in fact, <b>a vampire<\/b>. Now the players must use their wits and skills to find a way to escape from the castle before the monster in their midst kills them all.<\/p>\n<h4>Solving the Mystery<\/h4>\n<p><b>Guests must work together<\/b> to identify the murderer. A terrible evil stalks the solemn halls of Shufflemoore Manor, and only the most clever and lucky of Baron Castaign&#8217;s guests are likely to escape with their lives!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Add intrigue to your next party with this murder mystery game, set in a haunted castle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":163265,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[561,562,563,690,551,546,558,548,557,555,564,559,539,545,547,550,554,560,543,536,556,544,552],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-40060","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","6":"product_cat-10-or-fewer-guests-themes","7":"product_cat-11-to-29-guests-themes","8":"product_cat-30-or-more-guests-themes","9":"product_cat-add_to_contact","10":"product_cat-adults-themes","11":"product_cat-christmas-themes","12":"product_cat-church-themes","13":"product_cat-clean-themes","14":"product_cat-corporate-themes","15":"product_cat-family-and-friends-themes","16":"product_cat-fundraiser-themes","17":"product_cat-organization-themes","18":"product_cat-halloween-mysteries","19":"product_cat-halloween-themes","20":"product_cat-holidays-themes","21":"product_cat-ages","22":"product_cat-audience","23":"product_cat-guest-count","24":"product_cat-themes","25":"product_cat-mystery-party-kits","26":"product_cat-school-themes","27":"product_cat-summer-themes","28":"product_cat-teens-themes","30":"first","31":"instock","32":"downloadable","33":"sold-individually","34":"shipping-taxable","35":"purchasable","36":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
