Interactive Events are Soaring in Popularity
Interactive entertainment allows the audience to engage directly with the event or show, and these types of events are soaring in popularity right now, especially within the online world. Sporcle is one example, with live online trivia events. People can interact with the host, with live audience responses taking place in real time. Enchambered also offers live online escape room experiences, where people can work with a host to solve several puzzles. When you play Adventures Beyond Wonderland, you can also interact with a live show host. After you have placed your bet, they will spin a wheel, and depending on where you land, you get the option to trigger a special money wheel. This gives you the chance to win a multiplier up to 10x, with an inner and outer ring full of different outcomes.
As online events are soaring in popularity, it’s no surprise to see that more of them are being created specifically for local towns and cities. As time goes on, it seems that people want more experiences where decisions made impact the outcome of a game too. Whether it’s placing a bet on a wheel segment, choosing which escape room door to open, or figuring out who did it in a murder mystery, the interactive format helps to provide a much more engaging experience to everyone involved while providing valuable tourism opportunities for areas like Great Dunmow.
About the Murder Mystery Event
The event is taking place at Talliston House, where 12 guests will be thrown into a scenario where they’re all suspects. In 1922, Art Deco was all the rage and that’s the core theme of this event. You will be able to take part in a three-course buffet experience along with a full awards ceremony for the best performer of the night. You can bring your friends or family, or you can come alone to take part in the experience.
There are going to be numerous rounds, with your decisions impacting the flow of the story. You have the option to bring your own drinks if you’d prefer, and there are awards for the best costume and best detective. Due to the delicate nature of the wooden floors at the property, it’s asked that you do not wear high-heeled stilettos and that you do not wear anything that contains glitter.
With ticket prices starting at £49.95 per person, this is set to be a fun and exciting event for anyone who loves an interactive experience. It’s also ideal for those who want to live out their dreams of being a detective, in a fun whodunnit scenario that includes everything, from finding clues to storing evidence and unravelling the mystery of Talliston House. According to the Talliston House website, there are 8 places left on Friday evening, 3 left on Saturday evening, and 12 left for Monday afternoon. Sunday afternoon is all booked up currently, but it’s wise to keep an eye out for any changes in availability as the time approaches.
