What is a murder mystery party?
A crime has taken place at Quintin Castle… The cream of the crop of detectives are gathered in teams to try to figure out who could have committed it, with what weapon, at what time, and for what reasons… For over two hours, you will search for clues, pore over investigation reports, examine the list of suspects, and ponder the crime scene to solve the mystery.
For the past eight years, Quintin Castle has been offering murder mystery parties in partnership with Jean Ludik, allowing you to visit while having fun.
What scenario is being played out?
We offer four different scenarios each year. After the Twins case this summer, we will resume the Masked Ball case (already played in the spring) in October, while we await a new scenario that will arrive in December.
The Masked Ball Affair: “A château, a group of friends, costumes, a masked ball, a wonderful atmosphere… but also a murder! Who could have imagined that someone would be murdered during the evening? What costume is the murderer hiding under? Put on your detective’s costume (or any other!) and come and solve this new mystery at Quintin Castle! “Murder for businessesIf you would like to participate in a professional setting, we offer private team-building packages throughout the year for groups of 20 to 90 people: contact us.

We do not accept teams composed solely of teenagers: we require at least one adult to be present in the team.
A few dates outside of summer are offered “with cocktail-style dinner”. It is served at each table from the start of the game until the end of the evening. It consists of savoury and sweet finger-foods, easy to eat while staying focused on the game. A buffet of soft drinks (cola, orange juice, water) and red & white wines is available, plus tea, herbal teas, and coffee on a self-service basis. We work partly with Traiteurs Briochins.On all other dates, we invite you to enjoy the catering options in Quintin, either before or after your game session (the schedule allows it).
Bring warm/rainproof clothing depending on the weather, as you will be crossing an outdoor courtyard several times and the interior of the castle is not heated.
