If you were the type of kid (or adult) who liked to figure out that it was Professor Plum in the parlor who was the make-believe murderer, now you can use your wannabee detective skills while noshing on steak and sipping cocktails. The Hamilton County Park District has launched its latest season of Murder Mystery Dinners, held every Saturday night with a different theme. This week’s whodunit is “Magical Mystery Murder,” featuring a trippy early ‘70s vibe. A group of hippies discover they’re a ticket short for Woodstock, so one of the peace and love types decides to “kill” a pal to attend the concert. Participants will have to decide which long-haired freak did the dirty deed. The cost is $33.67 per person. Due to the popularity of the dinners, registration is required and seats are subject to availability. Dinner includes a variety of entrees, and a cash bar is available. Doors for the event open at 6:30 p.m., dinner begins at 7 p.m. and the show starts at 8 p.m.
