"The Haunting of the ISLAND MAID!" A Murder Mystery Dinner

Step into 1923 for an evening of mystery and intrigue at the Howard Steamboat Museum. You and your family will become detectives trying to solve a murder aboard a historic riverboat. The evening opens with a guided walkthrough through the museum's first floor that sets the scene for the drama to unfold. Costumed actors will perform the story—complete with ghostly happenings, lost treasure, and a suspicious death—and guests are invited to wear 1920s attire to really get into the spirit of things. The person who correctly solves the mystery wins a prize, and your dinner ticket supports this important local historical institution. Dinner is included with your admission, prepared by Mark's Feed Store, and a cash bar is available for beverages. The Murder and Merriment production company has performed these interactive mystery shows across five states and maintains a strong reputation for entertaining groups. Whether you're looking for a unique family outing or a group activity, this event offers a blend of history, entertainment, and the fun of working together to crack the case.
