Put yourself in the detective seat with a Murder Mystery Box. Within your box, you'll receive a journal summarizing the crime that has been committed. Additionally, you will be provided with evidence and clues that have been obtained. At specific points of the adventure, you will be prompted to open the clues and review the evidence. Review evidence such as police reports, crime scene summaries, and other evidence to help you find the prime suspect. Follow the journal and evidence to unmask the criminal and their motives. Do you have what it takes to solve the murder mystery?
Each new quarter brings a new case to your door. Or, you can choose from more than two dozen standalone, one-time mysteries. Turn anywhere into detective headquarters with our self contained mysteries. This means that everything you need to solve any of our mysteries is contained within the box. You don't have to go online to obtain clues. It all comes down to an adventurer like yourself and the box. |
All mystery boxes are hand-packaged in-house in the southern United States . Each box is packed with care and consideration by dedicated Murder Mystery Box staff. We do not use co-packers, as a result our accuracy rate is 99.99%. However, if you are missing any component, we welcome you to reach out to us and let us make it right.
Yes. We are a family-owned small business that strives to deliver an enjoyable and intriguing mystery experience to the solo sleuth, duo of detectives, or small group of mystery-solvers. We greatly appreciate your patronage. As a small business, every customer is our most important customer and has been since day one.
We’ve been up and running since 2016 and appreciate our customers today as much as we did on the first day.
Occasionally, we offer free shipping on select items. Additionally, our subscribers are offered free shipping. You can subscribe to our quarterly mysteries by visiting our Subscribe page or check out our One-Time Annual Subscription page for an even deeper discount.
The box contains adult themes, meaning, murder. The box is not recommended for children for this reason.
In some form or another, at least one character is murdered along the course of the Murder Mystery Box adventure. Beyond that, the box is meant to be an adventure, and is not overly explicit with regards to gore, language or sexual content. Use or gift at your own discretion.

It all depends on the investigator. It's like asking how long will it take to beat a video game or read a book. A rough estimation would be an hour or two if the dedicated sleuth really dove into it to finish it all at once. We recommend going though the box at your own pace. It's not a race. It's a mystery to solve.
When ordering a gift, be sure to enter your gift recipient's name and address as the mailing address. If you have any difficulty, reach out to us via our contact page, we're here to assist you. Might we recommend our One-Time Annual Subscription as a gift option? Or a One-Time Mystery? Either option is a one-time purchas- so, no recurring billing. No strings.
