How to Host a Teen Mystery: Barbecue with the Vampire

Product Description You are invited to attend a barbecue at the very spooky castle of rock superstar Killian Killagan. It's been a long time since Killian has had a party. He's lonely, but busy recording his new album "Spawned in the USA." You'll also be celebrating the birthday of Nora Flexion - the homecoming queen of Jugular Springs High - with a special cake. Upon arriving, you discover someone is turning helpless citizens into bats. Assume the role of one of these eight eerie characters: JACQUELINE HYDE (Jackie is a health food freak and body builder by day... a party animal by night), JUAN STEPHAN LAGRAVE (Juan is the poorest kid in school. His father is an undertaker for the local Albanian Orthodox funeral home. Juan's father often promises his son the business but Juan is not thrilled about it), FREDA EVERTIN (Freda is afraid of the dark, scared of insects, terrified by animals... yet she lives in an old mansion which is said to be haunted. Her family owned the well-known amusement park Six Black Flags, but ever since it was washed away during Hurricane Vlad, they have been shrouded in mystery), DWAYNE DENARTERY (Dwayne is a slick, handsome and incredibly conceited young prince from a small Eastern European country. He expects people to treat him like royalty, and usually everyone does), ANITA LOTTA TAI-PEI (Anita is Dwayne's girlfriend and is so completely devoted to him that she waits on him like a servant. She used to be the school's best student. Popular, confident and outspoken, she is a natural leader), HOWIE BLEDSOE (Howie was the victim of a freak lawn mower accident during Hurricane Vlad. Surgeons were forced to transplant nearly every organ. Now, he stars in every sport... he creates amazing paintings... and he melts girls' hearts with the tongue of a poet), ROBIN O'POSITIVE (A child prodigy who completed college at age 12 and medical school at 15, now the state's youngest surgeon. Everyone loves Robin's sunny disposition), Killian Killagan (Reclusive and strange, this famous recording artist lives alone in a dark castle on top of Deadman's Bluff. Killian loves all things spooky: scary movies, horror books, etc. His parents were victims of a tragic Venus' flytrap encounter during Hurricane Vlad). Imagine your home as a spooky castle on a bluff as you and your friends enjoy hours of suspense and intrigue - but mainly humor - as you solve the crime over an authentic New England vampire's feast of barbecue chicken and roasted vegetables. Ages 12 to 17, eight players. So much fun, it's almost criminal. From the Manufacturer Be there or be square, Stan A. Live
