There’s been a M**der…& you just might be the prime suspect. Lucky for you, you'll have a custom made candle to see your way out of trouble!
About this Event

Step into an evening of intrigue, creativity, and suspense at Above Average Candle Studio, where you’ll play detective, uncover clues, and craft a candle — all while solving a mystery that’s anything but ordinary.
Your experience begins by creating your custom fragrance. You’ll blend your own custom “alibi scent” — a signature fragrance that fits your personality (or your secret motive). Choose from rich notes like Smoked Amber, Dark Rose, Cedar Noir, and Midnight Vanilla as you pour your very own candle — the perfect souvenir from an unforgettable night of mystery.
Once your candle is setting… the plot thickens.
You and your fellow guests will be assigned roles in a thrilling interactive M**der mystery game, complete with clues, character cards, and a few surprising twists. Work together (or plot against each other) to find out whodunit before the night ends.
Throughout the evening, enjoy free refreshments and light snacks, take photos in our crime scene photo booth, and vibe to a moody playlist full of mysterious instrumentals, and cinematic beats to set the scene.
Whether you come with friends, your partner, or a group of fellow sleuths, this experience is packed with laughter, suspense, and candlelit fun — the kind of night you’ll be talking about long after the case is closed.
What’s Included:
One candle-making experience
Access to our live interactive M**der Mystery game
Character role card + clues for each participant
Complimentary refreshments & light snack
Photo ops at the “crime scene” station
Take-home candle + bragging rights if you solve the mystery first
Why You’ll Love It:
Because this isn’t your average night out — it’s part game night, part candle class, and part live theater! You’ll laugh, scheme, pour, and play in a perfectly dramatic, candlelit atmosphere that’s pure Above Average.
$65 Per Person - Price is for 2
