A new murder mystery experience is coming to an 18th century Norfolk venue this summer.

The Murder Mystery Evening at Letton Hall, near Shipdham, is an immersive experience and Georgian-themed adventure which will delve into the site's history.

The summer event will take place at the grade II listed country house on June 27, with drinks on arrival in the hall's library at 6.45pm, followed by a three-course meal.

Donna Triggs, co-owner of Dreamstone Productions, said: “We are incredibly excited about this event, Letton Hall has an amazing history and I cannot imagine a better venue to hold a murder mystery.

"This is going to be completely immersive - guests are going to be part of the action the minute they walk through the door.”

Tickets cost £55 and all proceeds from the fundraising event will go to The Letton Hall Appeal.
