MYSTERY DINNER: Death by Shamrock

Guests are invited to a killer St. Patrick’s Day celebration at Battlefield Bed and Breakfast during the interactive mystery dinner, Death by Shamrock. This festive and suspenseful evening combines Irish flair, dramatic intrigue, and a four-course dining experience for a night filled with secrets, surprises, and suspense.

The mystery begins over appetizers and unfolds through multiple rounds that correspond with each course of the meal. As overlapping storylines develop, guests will gather clues, exchange information, and attempt to solve the mystery before the detective reveals the truth—or before the culprit manages to escape.

Each $99 ticket includes a four-course dinner and full mystery entertainment. Guests wishing to avoid Eventbrite fees may book directly by calling 717.334.8804 or emailing events@gettysburgbattlefield.com. All attendees are assigned roles within the mystery, and guests may request in advance whether they prefer a primary, highly interactive role or a more low-profile character. While costumes are not required, dressing up is strongly encouraged to enhance the experience.

An optional Friday evening Sleuth Social will take place at 5:00 p.m. and may be added for an additional $25. Overnight guests of Battlefield Bed and Breakfast may attend the social hour at no additional charge.

Death by Shamrock is set during a lively St. Patrick’s Day celebration at the Shakin’ Shamrock Pub, which is preparing for a packed house of spirited Irish gentlemen and ladies. While the pub promises music, merriment, and celebration, many of the guests carry scandalous pasts and deep-rooted rivalries. Though everyone insists that this year will be different, old grudges and hidden tensions threaten to erupt. As the drama unfolds, guests must gather information, trade clues, and uncover the truth before the perpetrator gets away.
