Hints to help you get started:



The setting, events and characters have to come alive for your guests

Tell a story! Don't just have a crime, a victim and a detective; give them a reason why they've been brought together other than the superficial solve a murder/crime.

First step: figure out what the story is and how best to tell that story

Second step: figure out what the crime is, who committed the crime and how the criminal will be caught.

PLOT. You need to come up with a plot, the cornerstone of the mystery. It will be your crime scene if you will. Why have the primary suspects gathered? What do they all have in common that brings them together to this soon-to-be crime scene? The stakes need to be high for all your primary suspects to give them a motive for murder. Most people murder for love, money or revenge. Sometimes pure insanity is the reason but mostly it's for love, money or revenge.

Have a seconds-to-be-dying chemist put out a set of elemental chemicals in order to spell out the killer's name. For example, Potassium, Aluminum, Lithium, Sodium, Selenium, and Calcium spelling out the killer's last name: K Al Li Na Se Ca. Make up your own last name, but be careful not to use inert gases or radioactive metals.
