What can we dress up as for a murder mystery party?

It depends on the game. Some murder mystery dinner games, like those from SupperSleuths.com, include invitations for each guest that describe what the character is supposed to be like they will be playing, including what dishes to bring and costume suggestions. If the game does not include these great invitations like SupperSleuths, then some good general suggestions may be Sherlock Holmes,Dr Watson, Miss Marple, Hercule Poirot, etc. Just try to match your character to the theme and time period of the murder mystery game you are attending and you will be sure to have a great time. And don't over think it. Supper Sleuths and other murder mystery dinner games are about interacting with friends, family, and making new friends. Enjoy the gathering and company and let loose!
