SYNOPSIS Christmas City is a charming city in the North Pole dedicated year-round to the Christmas holiday. Popular
businesses include Santa’s Workshop, which is the largest toy store in the world. Another fabulous hot spot is The Gingerbread Shop, which is known for the most fashionable Christmas couture, and of course, people flock from all around the world to spend a day at the awe-inspiring Winter Wonderland Amusement Park. Last but not least is The Egg Noggery which is a sweet shop world-renowned for their scrumptious gingerbread cookies and eggnog. Christmas City is also a popular vacation spot for the rich and famous as their ski slopes are the absolute best in the world.
Noel’s Tavern is the place to be in Christmas City where the locals relax and unwind from the hustle and bustle of their lives in the city. Each year, Noel’s Tavern hosts the annual Christmas Jamboree to celebrate the hard work of the laborers in town that make Christmas around the world possible.
This year, an exciting list of guests have RSVP’d for the party, and the manager of Noel’s Tavern has high hopes that this will be the biggest holiday celebration ever!
Unfortunately, the spirits of the citizens are dampened in Christmas City with the recent news of a heinous murder on Snowball Street. None other than Old Saint Nick was gunned down in cold blood! Currently, a vigorous investigation is underway, and the residents of Christmas City have become increasingly suspicious of each other.
Mayor Rudolph held a press conference and mandated the townspeople maintain business as usual. The mayor announced the annual bash at Noel's Tavern must go on, as Santa would have wanted it that way.
You have RSVP’d for the party and have your perfect holiday inspired outfit picked out. This is where your story begins.

Everyone will have a pre-game task card in the purchased game. Names removed to minimize spoilers

Character name is here in the purchased game – round one clues to reveal while mingling with other guests:
Character Y and Santa Claus were fighting about a recent inheritance from their late great grandfather. Find out what was going on – this gives her a big motive to kill Santa. Character J fights with her foes on her reality television show all the time. If she is that used to violence, and if Santa Claus did anything to anger her, she may be a suspect in his murder. Santa Claus had two out of town guests visiting him recently for a few days, (i.e. Peter Easter and Jack Pumpkin) and they stayed at The Claus Plaza Hotel. Santa called you five times per day to make sure you were taking care of them. You were very insulted and glad when they finally checked out. They checked out the day that Santa was gunned down on Snowball Street.
clues that you may conceal if you wish You did not kill Santa and have no idea who did such a thing! You and Carney Vale were in the same class during elementary school. You two never got along and you always felt as though Carney was a bully. Carney used to steal things out of your lunch and threaten to beat you up if you told anybody.
Everyone will have a round one card in the purchased game
Copyright © mymysteryparty.com Page 10
Character’s name is here in the purchased game – ROUND TWO PRE-MURDER CLUES:
It completely does not surprise you what Character G did to Santa Claus. She is such a low life; you haven’t gotten along with that scumbag since you both were kids. She needs to leave Christmas City…in a body bag! But that’s just your opinion. Tell a few people that you didn’t think that Santa deserved to die, but you are not sad that he won’t be busting your chops over taking care of his friends that stay at The Claus Plaza Hotel. Ask Character W why Axi Dente is suing him/her.
POST -MURDER CLUEs: The murderer must be the one with the biggest
motive. You don’t remember seeing the murder weapon
tonight. You would be shocked if your fingerprints are found on it.
You never left the party room the entire party. You did see Tator Salsbury leave the party room
only about 4 minutes prior to discovering the body in the hallway. Tator went into the kitchen and then went upstairs to the restrooms. This could be a brilliant cover-up if Tator is the one who murdered the victim.
Everyone will have a round two card in the purchased game
