Meeting Room B

Participate in a "whodunit" murder mystery set on at 1930s archaeologic dig in Egypt. Registration is required.

Have you ever wanted to solve a mystery like Hercule Poirot in Death on the Nile or go on a globe‑trotting adventure like Indiana Jones or Evie O'Connell? Now is your chance!

This is a live‑action murder mystery game set on a 1930s archaeological dig in Egypt. When the lead archaeologist dies shortly after opening a supposedly cursed tomb, every member of the excavation becomes a suspect. Each participant will be assigned a unique character with their own motives, secrets, and clues. By interacting with other characters, following clues, and piecing together evidence, you’ll work together to uncover the truth: Was it the curse—or was it one of you?

  • Capacity: Only 20 players may register
  • Registration required: After registering, you’ll receive an email with character descriptions and instructions for selecting your role
  • Costumes: Dressing in character is highly encouraged
  • Start time: 2pm
  • Game length: Approximately 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on player count and how quickly the mystery is solved

If you are unable to attend the event, please cancel your reservation so someone on the waitlist can join. If you are on the waitlist, attend only if you get a confirmation email indicating that a spot has opened up for you. Staff members will be taking attendance.

To cancel your registration, do one of the following:

  • Use the link and registration reference number from the "You're Registered" email you received.
  • Call the library's Adult Services Department at 317.814.3988
  • Email adultservices@carmelclaylibrary.org.
