    We’re back with a brand-new murder mystery to unravel!  Step into the world of a classic “who done it?” with a historical twist! Join Parks Canada for an evening of mystery, intrigue and unexpected revelations, where keen observation and sharp wit are the keys to uncovering the truth. 

    This year, Woodside is the setting for a Fairy Tale Costume Party hosted by Mrs. King.  The characters have dressed for the occasion - and we encourage you to do the same! 

    Put your detective skills to work as you explore the historic house, interview suspects and gather clues. The mystery is yours to solve! 
    Doors open 30 minutes before the show. Enjoy some light refreshments as you meet some of characters but keep your eyes open and listen carefully to see if you can identify the guilty party before the final reveal. Prizes will be awarded for some, but fun will be had by all!

    This program includes adult themes and is recommended for ages 12 and up.
