Thou Shalt Not Kill! (Character based - large group) £20.99


Bosthorpe Evangelical Church has been a part of the community since 1766.

It is an active, people oriented, Bible-believing church, whose members strive to teach, encourage, disciple and assist one another; promoting Christian fellowship, service and growth.

Up until tonight, the church was not atypical amongst the local evangelical church community, but now it stands apart as wholly unique. There has been a murder!

Don Riting, the church secretary, has been found dead in the church entrance porch just minutes before the midweek church members meeting.

There is no doubt in anyone's mind that the murder was committed by one of the church members ”“ but the question is ”“ which one?

The Cast:

Essential Cast

  • Inspector Stan De'Sing ”“ The policeman sent to solve the crime
    Efficient in his own peculiar way, Inspector Stan Desing has an unusual method of solving crimes ”“ he involves everyone!


  • Rev. Al Ation - Vicar
    In dog collar and dark suit, Rev Al. Ation is a bible thumping vicar intent on ensuring everyone's salvation!


  • Ivora Keys - Organist
    Elderly, in nylon unflattering dresses, Ivora is hard of hearing and has very thick glasses. Given her age, it's a wonder she manages to play the organ at all, then again, perhaps that does explain things”¦


  • Ben Counting - Church Treasurer
    In smart business suit, Ben is always looking to secure gift aid donations and regularly seen with a calculator and financial paper in his hands.


  • Alta Cleff - Choir Mistress
    In floral dress and always with her song sheets to hand, Alta has perfect pitch and is known for spontaneously breaking into song.


  • Stew Ard - Part of the welcome team
    With a friendly handshake and smart casual dress, Stew is usually the first person to greet any new arrivals.


  • Lena Lesson - Sunday School teacher
    With a stereotypical school mistress air, Lena is dressed formally and is always checking people with their memory verses.


Optional Cast:
  • Mike Check - A.V. Technician
    Smothered in cabling and clutching plugs and microphones, Mike is always dressed in black so he can slip around unnoticed at the back of the church to adjust the sound quality.

  • Jenna Sis - Church Member
    Always prone to temptations, especially where shopping is concerned, Jenna is the height of fashion and dresses to the nines.

  • Len De'Hand - Church Handyman
    Never without his tool kit Len is often scruffily attired as he is always mending things or doing the gardening.

  • Anne Tique - Old church member
    In very dated clothing and hat, Anne is the oldest church member on the books.

  • Al Zeihmers - Forgetful German ex-missionary
    Never sure whether he is coming or going, Al, is dressed for any weather and any time of day all at once.

  • Dee Ciple - Christian Bookshop owner
    In a smart business suit, Dee always arrives prepared with a book list suitable for any eventuality.




Never run a large group mystery before? Then don't panic!

Hosting a Large Group Murder Mystery is time consuming, but with ample preparation and a good cast it is really quite simple and great fun!

In large group games it is impossible to give everyone a part, instead the mystery involves “cast members” who are fully in the know and act out the mystery, and the guests act as detectives trying to solve the murder.

Large group games come in several different formats, clue based, cast based, multi-room, single room, or a mixture of them all.

This particular game requires 7-13 cast, and one large room. It also has an option of a series of paper clues. Guests will also need paper and pens. This game works best as a sit down event with 6-12 tables of guests who work as a team, but the game can be adapted to suit most formats of events.

The game contains two options. Option 1: All clues are provided by cast members. Option 2: Guests receive questions to ask the suspects (cast members) on paper, and have to find out the answers to these questions from the cast.
