GALENA, Ill. - The Bed and Breakfast Innkeepers of Galena, tucked away in the scenic and hilly corner of northwest Illinois, will once again present their annual interactive Murder Mystery weekends! These two-day events take place right in downtown Galena, with participants staying with the city's finest innkeepers. Galena features a wealth of historic 19th-century dwellings, in a variety of styles, that are now cozy B&Bs and inns.
Visitors can try their hands with "Love U to Death" on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 26-27, or attempt to solve "Murder in the 3rd Millennium" on Friday and Saturday, March 12-13. "Love U to Death" encompasses the complete atmosphere of the 1940s. Complete with authentic gangster ambiance, plenty of passwords and crooked officials; it will truly be a challenge for even the most trained sleuth. The second weekend will truly be an out-of-this-world sci-fi experience. Can you avoid the humanoids, aliens, and even a robot to solve this challenge? With some help, you can unmask the killer!
Each event is $70 per person, plus the cost of lodging, and includes a Friday night reception in the Grand Ballroom and Saturday night dinner theater in the Courtyard of the historic DeSoto House on Galena's quaint Main Street. Visitors can choose between the following BBIG members: Aldrich Guest House, Annie Wiggins Guest House, Avery Guest House, Belle Aire Mansion Guest House, Brierwreath Manor Bed and Breakfast, Captain Harris Guest House, Cloran Mansion & Antonio's Cottage, Farmers' Guest House, Galena Log Cabin Getaway, Hellman Guest House, Ryan Mansion Bed & Breakfast or The Steamboat House.
Tickets are limited to 100 per event. They may be purchased from the selected innkeeper and picked up at the lodging facility. Period costumes always add to the fun but are not required. And an interactive drama gives the audience a chance to participate as performers. For more information please call Kathie Farlow at 815-777-3456 or visit bestofgalena.com.
