Eventbrite Reviews

Murder Mystery Meals are incredibly transphobic. I am writing this review to warn others so that no one else has to go through the same experience I did.

Recently I was part of a hen do taking part in the murder mystery event titled "The Jealous Bride." Apart from anything else, it wasn't really a murder mystery as there was no cohorent plot. The writing was absolutely awful with 'jokes' that were sexist and stupid, along with two very bad actors including an older man who seemed to enjoy getting as close to the young women guests as possible and leering over them/patronising them.

The whole experience was boring at best and skin-crawling at worst. Using the defense that it was 'all a joke' is not acceptable. The plot revolved around the idea that the bride's partner was hiding that he was a trans man and apparently this was supposed to be a subject for mockery.

Also, I checked a blog post from 2009 and it appears that the script hasn't changed in at least 10 years. That being said, even 20 years ago it would be considered out-dated.
