Notorious Irish Murder Mystery Camp

This event has ended

EPIC Museum, Wednesday 2nd November - Thursday 3rd November

In this two day camp, EPIC’s detectives are trying to solve a case, and we’re enlisting only the most brave and fearsome recruits to join us as we dive into the darker side of Irish history.

Uncover those figures who made a notorious name for the Irish around the world, like legendary Wild West figure Billy the Kid; fearsome pirate of the Caribbean Anne Bonny; William Lamport, the Wexford man behind the mask of Zorro; Bootlegger, bank robber and gangster, George “”Machine Gun”” Kelly, and more.

Participants will work together to build case studies of the suspects, as they hear the tales of the Irish that have challenged and sometimes even changed the law – for better or worse.

Mapping places and connections, solving clues, quizzes and riddles, acting out scenes, drafting wanted posters, diary excerpts and newspaper articles and more to help bring history to life, they’ll attempt to solve the EPIC murder mystery – discovering whodunit before the countdown clock expires on day two!

The question is: are you up for the challenge?

This camp is suitable for ages 7 – 12 years old. Parents do not need to accompany children to the camp. Children are asked to bring a packed lunch to the camp and anything else they need for the course of the day.
