Murder at the Museum

Step into the shadows of 1950s Sanford for a night of mystery, secrets, and retro tales, all while supporting a great cause! Join us at the Sanford Museum for a one-of-a-kind murder mystery fundraiser where the exhibits aren’t the only things hiding secrets. As night falls across Sanford on September 27, a chilling crime unfolds and it’s up to you to solve the case. Who killed our Museum Curator? Solve clues, question suspects, and piece together a chilling tale set among century-old family secrets. Will the murderer be discovered? All proceeds support the Sanford Historical Society.
 
 
THE PLOT – The year is 1957, in an alternate Sanford, one with a host of characters equally as interesting as the characters who helped make this here today city. We’re celebrating the “opening” of the Sanford Museum with a great gala hosted by the Sanford Historical society, inviting all the “major donors” of the museum – people who have donated time, artifacts, oral histories, and especially money, in order to make this museum a reality. What these distinguished guests do not realize is that it does not matter how much one donates, it is the job of a museum to curate the truth accurately: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Sadly, some will do anything to protect their family’s legacy… even murder.
