Overview
It’s supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year… but not in Ferndale! Mr. and Mrs. Claus have gone missing, the elves have gone wild, and Head Elf, Tiny Twinkletoes, has been found dead as a doornail outside The Rust Belt—stabbed through the heart with a sharpened candy cane. Santa’s top investigator, Nick Nutcracker, has flown in from the North Pole to crack this case before Christmas is canceled. He’ll need help from a few sharp-eyed holiday revelers (that’s you) as he interviews suspects at various local hot spots. But beware—the killer is among them, and the peppermint-scented trail leads straight through five of Ferndale’s most festive haunts. Guests join “Detective Nick Nutcracker” as he leads you on a walking tour to five Ferndale favorite local hot spots. At each stop, you’ll meet one of the suspects and hear their alibi, clues, and motives—all while enjoying a holiday-themed cocktail or mocktail. At the final stop, the truth is revealed: who killed Tiny Twinkletoes, and why?
