    The 80s Slasher – Plymouth

    EVENT: The 80s Slasher
    WHERE: Boringdon Hall Hotel, Plymouth
    WHEN:  Friday 27 March 2026
    ————————————————

    Cheeky Reaper is extremely proud to have been invited to provide regular murder mystery events at Boringdon Hall Hotel in Plymouth.

    The Plot

    A ruthless slasher is terrorising the city in the 80s and their victims all share one thing in common: every murder happens at an exclusive dinner party.

    When the trail of blood leads nowhere, unconventional undercover cop Dirk Lovelady decides to set the perfect trap.

    His bait? A grand dinner unlike anything the city’s elite has ever seen.

    As champagne flows, tension simmers beneath the silverware. Every guest hides something, every toast could be their last, and somewhere beneath the laughter, the killer waits to strike again.

    Before dessert is served, Dirk must unmask the murderer – or become the final course in their deadly feast.

    WHEN:  Friday 30 January 2026

    Cheeky Reaper is extremely proud to have been invited to provide regular murder mystery events at Boringdon Hall Hotel in Plymouth.

    The Plot

    It’s Paris, 1921, and after years of silence and ashes, the Moulin Rouge rises once more from the embers of tragedy.

    As the city dances into the jazz age, its famed red windmill spins again – promising glamour, freedom, and resurrection.

    Behind the music and glitter, however, whispers of sabotage linger. A new starlet’s sudden disappearance threatens to unearth secrets long buried beneath the stage.

    In this world of smoke, sequins, and shadows, everyone has something to hide – and the show must go on.

    We are absolutely delighted to announce that Boringdon Hall in Plymouth has invited Cheeky Reaper to provide its regular murder mystery events.

    We’re hoping that our performance of “The Twisted Victorian Christmas” will leave guests saying: “Please Sir! Can I have some more?”.

    The Plot

    Step into the heart of Victorian London this Christmas, where snow dusts the cobblestones and The Victoria Tavern glows with festive cheer.

    Proprietors Lionel and Peggy Nubbins greet guests with charming smiles, but shadows linger behind their respectability. With their wards Archie and Lavender at their side, the tavern promises warmth, laughter and more than a few secrets that come to light.

    But as the night progresses, merriment gives way to shock: one among them falls, victim to a sinister crime. Was it jealousy, revenge, or something darker that turned the season of goodwill into a night of betrayal?

    Who will survive to see Christmas morning? Unravel the twists. Reveal the truth. And remember: in this tavern, nobody is what they seem.

    Dress to impress

    Although it’s not compulsory, you are encouraged to dress to suit the theme so that you can fully immerse yourself in the evening’s entertainment. Join the cast of Cheeky Reaper for a fun evening of murder mystery.

    The evening includes a delicious three-course meal. For full details and to book your tickets, please contact the venue.
