5 Ideas for A Killer Office Holiday Party in 2023
The holiday season is fast approaching, and what better way to celebrate with your colleagues than by hosting an unforgettable office holiday party? If you're tired of the usual cookie-cutter events, why not infuse some intrigue and excitement into your gathering? Murder mystery parties are a killer way to engage your team, spark conversations, and create lasting memories.
Host an Ugly Sweater Murder Mystery Party
Our “Murder at the Office Ugly Sweater Holiday Party” is a best-seller and favorite among corporate groups. This theme was written for an office setting and is “safe for work” while still providing thrills and festive costume possibilities (everyone is encouraged to wear an ugly holiday sweater)! Play with your whole team on Zoom or in person!
The Tasty-Ful Design Company’s holiday office party is swinging—as well as a party can when it’s held in the breakroom on a Friday afternoon. And when everyone, from the VP down to the Security Guard, is decked out for an “Ugly Sweater” contest.
But things are about to get uglier, as someone peeks into the copy room and finds Nepo Tasty, the owner’s nephew, strangled with the sleeves of his own sweater.
Who would do such an ugly thing on such a festive occasion? It could have been one of the employees that Nepo had insulted. It could have been someone who was jealous of his place in the owner’s affections.
And ugliest of all—it could have been YOU!

Host a Totally Tubular 80s Themed Party
Our “80s Mall Murder Madness” murder mystery theme is an all-time favorite because who doesn’t love the 80s?! If you’re looking for something fun with a hint of nostalgia, this is the game for you! And everyone loves dressing up from the 80s :-)
It’s 1985, and real estate developer and “entrepreneur” Whit Wiley has just cut the ribbon opening the newest marvel in his shopping mall empire: the Wiley Waterside Galleria Mall in Malibu. Whit was to top the Forbes list of most rich and powerful men of 1985 - until he washed up in the mall fountain, strangled by his skinny tie.
Who could be responsible for the murder of this influential businessman? Was it his first wife Willhemina Wiley, seeking revenge for Whit Wiley's many extramarital affairs? Was it local super shopper Connie Sumer, angry over the Galleria’s inflated scrunchie prices? Or was it fashion designer Cal Von Cline, who objected to Wiley's appallingly gaudy bad taste?
Time to whip out that credit card and tease that hair as big as it can go - we’re shopping for a murderer in 80’s Mall Murder Madness!

Host a Murder by Midnight Themed Party
Consider hosting a New Year's Eve themed holiday party for your office! Murder By Midnight is set at a French Vineyard with lots of fun accent potential, and an excuse for great hors d'oeuvres and bubbly!
It’s New Years Eve at the DeBubbles Champagne Vineyards and Distillery in Champagne, France. The DeBubbles mansion is always the place to be at the stroke of midnight - the champagne flows as easily as the conversation. That is, until patriarch of the DeBubbles family fortune, grandpa Delroy DeBubbles, winds up dead!
Who could have executed such a dastardly plot on such a happy occasion? Was it Delroy’s second wife, Babette DeBubbles? Or perhaps the head winemaker for the rival LeCorque family, Monte Pulciano? Could it have been a disgruntled patron, like Reese Ling or employee, Mary Tage?
There’s only one way to find out - play Murder By Midnight! But hold onto your champagne because the killer could be YOU!

Host a Death and Taxes Themed Party
Looking for an office holiday party that's reminiscent of "The Office?" Our game Death And Taxes is perfect for any office environment and work appropriate!
It’s Tax Day at R&H Cube- their biggest day of the year! In the town of Skirmish, PA, folks aren’t too trusting of the digital age, so R&H Cube, a paper-based tax accounting firm, is packed with customers-with a line down the block! They’re the only paper-based option in town, so it’s all staff on deck. This includes Jimmy Halbert, Pom Steely, and Dwayne Flute- he’s the Assistant to the Regional Manager.
Every Tax Day, R&H Cube throws a huge party to recognize the hard work of their team. This year is no different, and Fiona Vee from Accounting has used every bit of the budget (and then some) to ensure this night goes out with a bang!
Unfortunately, it seems that Fiona herself was the one to go out with a bang.
Who killed Fiona in the conference room, and why? Did Fiona push one of the party planning committee members too far? Did she eat someone else’s lunch one too many times? Was she a spy, sent here by corporate?
There’s only one way to find out the answers to these questions- play “Death & Taxes” from Broadway Murder Mysteries!
