Description

London 1870, the height of the Victorian Era.

Victorian London is a very evocative setting for a dark-themed murder mystery dinner. Let’s look at some reasons. Firstly, the Gothic architecture of the houses, the fog, and the dim lighting of the gas street lamps immediately immerse you in a gloomy and mysterious atmosphere.

London at the end of the 1800s is rich in history and legends. Ghost stories abound, as do the short and cheap serialized creapy tales called ‘Penny Dreadful.’ Our story is inspired by these brief serial tales and seeks to recapture their narrative style.
