A Special Outdoor Mystery Party
5 girls and 5 boys are suspects - up to 30 can play!
Many, many
years ago, when the town of Buccaneer Valley was just a tiny settlement, a band
of pirates and thieves pulled off the most daring theft of its time. The men got
away with a fortune in jewels. With the enraged citizens hot on their trail, they
had no choice but to split up. Arguments quickly started. What would they do with
the loot? When would they each get their shares? The leader of the group, a dangerous
man named Dylan Quint, decided to bury it. Everyone agreed to meet five years later
to dig it up and divide it. Legend says that Quint had strange powers and was able
to place a frightening monster nearby to guard the spot until they were back together
again. Yet, no one ever returned. The Quint treasure is rumored to be buried somewhere
still in the woods near Buccaneer Valley - and the monster is keeping watch over
it even today.
Everyone
in town knows this story and dreams of finding the treasure. The woods where it
is supposedly hidden is now a nature reserve, Buccaneer Park - and a local tradition
has sprung up. Every six months, school teachers run a treasure hunt there as classes
compete for the chance to work together to find the buried jewels. Teachers organize
the event as a learning experience and each selected class is given a trail to follow
around the park. The students are asked questions and, if they’re able to answer
them correctly, are led to a secret location where a "treasure" is found. It's always
a lot of fun - and a great history lesson.
But today something has gone wrong. The school’s minivan arrived
at 11 o'clock, and the students anxiously went into the park to follow the trail.
Then, at 2:30, Mr. Save, the teacher, and Miss Fance, his teaching assistant, heard
a loud, blood-curdling scream. Within minutes, they were surrounded by the students
telling tales of treasure and of a strange creature in the woods.
It was quickly decided that the class should report what happened
to the park rangers and leave. But - it looks like someone (or someTHING) wants
the class to stay in the park. The keys to the minivan are missing! Nobody
knows what happened to them. Cell phones don’t work in the woods and the rangers
can’t be contacted. Since no one else is around, the minivan is the only way for
he class to escape what could be a bad situation. The only hope seems to be to unravel
the events of the afternoon.
What was the scream that caused everyone to shiver? And, what’s
happening in the deep, dark woods of Buccaneer Park? Is Quint’s monster still guarding
the buried treasure? Or, is there more to the story? Only sound detective work will
unravel what’s going on!
Now you can customize this story
for your party !!
