Chrismas theme murder mystery - how long do they take?

by Holly

Hi, the one you suggest on your webpage is called The Night Before Christmas.

About how long will it take for the us to work though the mystery? thank you.

My response:

The Night Before Christmas takes between 2 and 2.5 hours to play through, but I would allow some time before (as an introduction and to get everyone settled in) and after (to wind down and share stories). So I would allow at least three hours.

I hope that helps.
