Murder Mystery Gala Presented by Muskoka Discovery Centre

For one unforgettable night, Muskoka Discovery Centre presents an immersive wartime-themed evening presented in partnership with TimberBeast

Step into 1942…

Set to a soundtrack of steamship sirens and swinging jazz the infamous Muskoka Detective, Rowena Mahaffy, is searching for a killer. The postmaster is dead…his murderer walks among us. Rowena must decipher coded loyalties, lascivious liaisons and bitter betrayal as the rest of the world questions her decency and innocence.

The air hums with 1940s jazz-style music. Shadows stretch across historic exhibits. Strangers exchange knowing glances. And by the end of the evening a shocking crime will demand answers...
