You’re undercover at Culzean Castle. Bring a team, or come on your own and be ready for a fun and mysterious night, Can You Catch The Killer? in this Murder Mystery Evening at Culzean Castle!

Detectives! You’re undercover at Culzean Castle, possibly the most haunted castle in the whole of Scotland… maybe even the world!

As well as the ghost legends within the caves below, or the phantom bagpiper whose mournful music haunts the night, or the ethereal maid and well-dressed gentleman that stalk the castle’s spiral staircase; now there are report of a terrifying screaming spook in a kilt!

Could this be the ghost of a long-lost Laird of Culzean? A team of ghost hunters are here to find out… However, when someone shows up mysteriously dead the question is, was this a sinister act from a disgruntled spirit, or a cold-blooded murder?

This fantastic evening includes:

  • Entry to Culzean Castle
  • A night of Murder Mystery entertainment by Can You Catch the Killer
  • A drink served on arrival
  • Use of Castle Tea Room for drinks after dinner
  • A delicious 3-course meal served within the historic and atmospheric State Dining Room, seated with your fellow sleuths at the original family table, Can you Catch the Killer? (please see the set menu below)
  • Drinks will be available to purchase from the bar all evening
