Teen Murder Mystery Party
In a sprawling manor in the town of Mayflower Falls, the Dread family is hosting their yearly Thanksgiving dinner for their neighbors. The Dreads plan to serve delectable food catered from none other than Dread Steakhouse. This is your invitation to the dinner on Saturday, November 15.
To pass the time until the feast is ready, the guests will catch up on the latest neighborhood gossip and play hilarious party games. Alas, the last year has been filled with treachery, scandal, and deceit. Many of the neighbors may not get along. The Dreads hope everyone can exist in harmony – at least until dessert hits the table.

Location: The Learning and Book Sale Center at 45 W. Allen St., Mechanicsburg
Registration: Register online at least three days prior to the program.
