Modules available to date:

Who Killed Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac? - This tale of trouble has many twists and turns, so let us begin by introducing you to our main character, Ms. Morgan Stillwater, an investigative reporter who often finds herself in the midst of deadly circumstances. Her unique gifts allow her to assist the police in solving the crimes in which she becomes enmeshed, carefully extracting herself from the spider’s web before the wily, dark creature can claim Morgan for her own. In this little tale of woe, the greedy, overextended married couple of Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac have been found dead in their nightclub, one of the many business ventures on which they spent your hard-earned money. You thought the money was safe in their banking system, but alas, the stock market has crashed and someone took revenge on the Cormicks. Not that most people will mourn them, but it would be good to have an alibi. (Set in the roaring twenties.)

The Ultimate Brew -
the baffling death of a wealthy business tycoon, in full view of a score of witnesses; just as the bidding war for his new, business-breaking coffee formula is about to be initiated. The people in horrified attendance to the death include the CEOs of several major coffee empires; a jealous mistress; a jilted, ambitious wife; an eccentric event planner; a disgruntled silent partner and a myriad of others - all of whom have plausible motives and opportunity. Now the race is on to solve the murder - with the added motivation that people are dropping into the Mistress Spider’s web of death like struggling flies, all of them trying find the secret formula while keeping their own dark secrets hidden - after all, just because you said you wanted him dead, doesn't mean you killed him... does it?

Will of the Witch -
Most of you are here because you received a formal invitation to a costume ball (although some of you are “crashers”) – and no one ever turns down an invitation from the Matriarch of the Mansion. Except it turns out to be a reading of a will. It seems Dame Katherine Pendergast, the Matriarch, (that’s Dame like in SAME, not what you are thinking, or will be thinking as the storyline unfolds…), died unexpectedly 2 nights ago. Now that you know the old witch is dead (yes, that’s a “w”, as in “Ding Dong, the Witch is Dead...”) you assume you’re going to get some of her vast fortune – at least, she had promised you would for years. Why else would you have put up with her and her miserable temperament? Almost everyone in this room had reason to hate her – except Michael Chamberlain, her nephew, who took care of her and actually loved the old biddy – he thought of her like a mother.

Shall We Dance? - A beloved dance instructor, Dave Dandy, is found murdered, hanging from the mirrored ball in the middle of his dance studio by his neophyte class of East Coast Swing students. Who would possibly want this man dead? His only goals in life were to spread the joy of dance to as many couples as possible. Granted, a few of the husbands expressed distaste at being dragged to a dance studio while missing Sunday football - but is that reason enough for murder? (Actual swing dance lessons are available at this event for those interested.)

The Witches of Westwick - through ritual arcane and ancient spells, have discovered a disturbance in the Ether. A bunch of souls have gotten stuck and need help to cross to the other side. These unfortunate dead are clogging up the Perpetual Pipeline, and we are the Cosmic Plumbers. This event starts with everyone already dead, but who says there can't be mayhem and murder amongst the dead? (This event is the perfect one for a Halloween gathering.)

The South Shall Rise Again! - Set just after the end of the Civil War, the rumor is that Uncle Jeb buried a million dollars somewhere on the old plantation, then dies before he could tell any of his family where the money is. Amazingly, the family has grown by leaps and bounds, once word of the fortune gets out. Now the race is on to not only find the loot, but to lay claim to the rights to it, and/or possibly remove anyone who stands in your wa - without getting caught, of course.
