Till Death: Murder at the Ashcroft  Estate

Saturday, October 24, 2026

6:00PM - 9:30PM

Join Last Call Animal Foundation for Till Death: Murder at the Ashcroft Estate, an interactive murder mystery dinner inspired by the classic game Clue.

You are cordially invited to the engagement celebration of Scarlet and Julian “Ash” Ashcroft at the Ashcroft Estate (aka The Bad Apple). There will be cocktails, secrets, scandal, and by the end of the night, murder. This is not a show you’ll sit back and watch. Guests will choose a character, step into the story, question other suspects, follow clues, and work to figure out who killed Ash and why.

What to expect:
  • An interactive murder mystery experience
  • Your choice of one of six characters to play
  • Welcome cocktail
  • Three-course dinner with salad, your choice of lasagna or eggplant parmesan, cannolis, and coffee
  • Character materials, investigation sheet, building map, and name tag
  • Additional themed cocktails available for purchase
  • A chance to choose which local animal shelter or rescue benefits if you solve the murder

Guests are encouraged to dress for the occasion. Think elegant country estate, old money, family drama, glamour, and scandal. Costumes are encouraged but not required.

At the end of the evening, each guest will submit their final accusation and choose a local animal shelter or rescue. If you correctly solve the murder, a portion of the proceeds will go to the organization you selected.

Your invitation to the Ashcroft Estate awaits. Step into the story, choose your character, and see if you can solve the murder.

Cocktail Classes

Cocktail classes are such a fun way to get together for a good cause. We discuss tools, techniques and components, and we craft cocktails . These are interactive classes, so you have all of the tools to make the cocktails yourself. These classes are an absolute blast! Stay tuned for the next class - be sure to follow us on facebook and instagram!

Proceeds benefit the Rotary Club of Giles County.

Included with every class:

  • guided instruction and three different cocktails (full-sized cocktails that you get to enjoy)
  • snacks
  • take-home gift and recipe cards
