"Death by Chocolate" ...the answer to living up to my reputation!

So I have this reputation to live up to with my kids....they think I'm the bomb when it comes to birthday parties. I enjoy putting them together right down to the littlest detail. So when my son's eight grade birthday came up, the last one before hitting high school I knew I needed to do something memorable for he & his friends.

This could potentially be the last time he celebrates with all his childhood friends. We get a choice of which HS to go to, not all of them will choose the same place.

So, my son & I agree on a murder mystery dinner party. We stumbled onto a kit for a death by chocolate theme.
Now who doesn't relate to chocolate?

The storyline takes place in a ritzy Paris hotel. A chocolate connoisseur'

is murdered...by who? Now that's the mystery!!! Is it the competition, employees, or perhaps a female friend.

I made a 3 course dinner menu allowing his friends to choose from 3 appetizers, 2 entrees, and 4 desserts. I went around like the waitress taking orders, dressed in black & white, tie and all! Each course I served in between rounds of dialogue. There were 4 boys & 4 girls that all came dressed in character.

We had a great time! A party to be remembered, hopefully many years from now when they bump into one another. 
Here are some other great murder mystery kits I found on Amazon you might like to try for your teens;

• They also had some wonderful adult themed parties to pick from, now that's not to say the above picks couldn't be used for adults as well.

As Well as
