Murder Mystery Takeover: Halloween Edition

30 October, 2026
From 6:00PM

Step into a night of intrigue, deception and otherworldly creatures.

This Halloween, Murder Mystery Takeover returns to Esca Restaurant for a frightfully entertaining dinner in the Haunter Valley.

Halloween Murder Mystery event graphic for Esca Restaurant featuring a shadowy castle, vampire silhouette and flying bats.

Let’s set the scene…

Something strange is happening in the quiet town of Jugular Springs.

The good citizens are mysteriously being turned into bats, and suspicion is spreading faster than a vampire at sunset.

Rock superstar Killian Killagan has invited you to a barbecue at his spooky castle on Dead Man’s Bluff. But beneath the food, festivities and fang-tastic company, something sinister is unfolding.

Who is responsible for these batty transformations? Could one of your fellow diners be a vampire hiding in plain sight?

Question the suspects, follow the clues and unmask the culprit before it is too late.
