The Ghost of Murder Yet to Come

Written and Directed by Terry Smith

Produced by Jerri Wiseman

One of the Marley brothers is dead. As dead as a door nail. It’s the roaring 20s, and Ebenezer Scrooge, the miserly, crotchety owner of Bah Humbug Enterprises, is on the verge of making her greatest deal. However, three visiting drunken ghosts have their own deal in mind. Will Ebenezer be transformed or will she be terminated … permanently? You decide.

All guests are encouraged to dress up for the mystery if you are so inclined. You’ll be attending an event in the 1920s so don your favorite flapper dress or zoot suit!
