Lubbock, TX – Monster Mansion Murder Mystery Dinner
Mystery at the Monster Mansion
Madsy Entist, the world-famous inventor, has invited all the monsters she knows to a party at her haunted mansion. And what a group she has invited! Count Dracula, the Wicked Witch of the West, the Phantom of the Opera—they’ll all be there, plus many more shambling, oozing, grunting outcasts.
At the party, Madsy intends to unveil her latest invention, “NORMALLO,” a potion that can turn any monster into a normal human being with just a swallow.
But what’s this? Someone has stolen the only bottle! Who among all the creeps and ghouls at the mansion tonight could have done it?
And speaking of monsters, maybe it was – YOU!
