Heart of England What's On

You're Invited: Mystery Night at BCLM

Presenting Black Country Living Museum's first-ever immersive murder mystery event!

You won't simply witness the story, you'll become part of it. Take your place amongst the villagers and join the hunt for the truth.

Hidden clues lie scattered throughout the streets, homes and workplaces of the Black Country village. Carefully concealed secrets are waiting to be revealed. You'll need your wits about you to unearth clues and piece together fragments of a story that someone is determined to keep buried.

A chance conversation might reveal a hidden motive. An overlooked detail could expose a dangerous lie. The deeper you dig, the more the village begins to reveal its darkest secrets.*
