Interesting characters and some clever dialogue in a stereotypical setting (stranded in haunted inn by washed out bridge). Needs 2 generations of actors. Action all in one day. Blackout necessary for first "murder." Many big knives that get stuck everywhere on stage. After first "murder," characters joke about it BEFORE audience knows it was fake -- no big reveal -- missed opportunity. 3 actual murders. Too dark for us.

Typical murder mystery - Agatha Christie style, but modern day. Having taken a New England bus trip tour myself, I can picture the characters quite easily; and The characters are all quite good and leave some nice development for actors to portray. The story is slightly predictable but there are fun moments and as always you find out who the murderer(s) is in the end... or do you?!
