Custom crime experiences for hotels, event venues, and tourism providers
Developed by author Alexa Glaser: Custom crime experiences for company parties, hotels, and special locations.
I create tailor-made crime formats that expand your offerings, delight guests, and make your property or venue unmistakable. Whether hotel, bus tour, historical attraction, or event location: together we create an experience that goes far beyond a classic stay.
Which businesses are suitable for a crime experience?
Whether a hotel, event venue, bus tour operator or tourist business: Wherever people spend time together, a crime experience can become a special highlight.

Historic hotels & holiday hotels
For places with character where atmosphere, history and spaces themselves can become part of the experience.

Bus companies & group programs
As an outstanding program highlight for group trips during longer journeys or special stays that should offer more than the standard.

Event venues & houses with supporting programs
For locations that want to expand their offerings with a distinctive experience and thereby position themselves more clearly.

Tourist sites & experience providers
For locations that want to make their history and special features tangible in new ways.
How you benefit from a crime experience
Competition is growing. Many establishments offer nice rooms, good food and friendly service. What guests really remember are special experiences. A custom crime format creates exactly that difference.
Easily integrable
Depending on the concept, the crime experience can be implemented with minimal staff effort. Self-playable variants or video moderation are also possible.
Reusable
The concept is developed so that it doesn’t just work once, but remains bookable as a permanent fixture.
More booking incentives
A special experience creates additional booking occasions: tickets, packages, add-on services or longer stays can be specifically supported, as well as referrals.
Clear differentiation from the competition
Your property offers not just accommodation or dining, but an experience that guests will share and remember fondly.
This is how your crime experience can be structured
No hotel is the same. That’s why every crime experience is created individually. Together we develop the format that fits your guests, your premises, and your offerings.

As an integrated hotel experience
The crime experience is directly linked to your property or offering and becomes part of the stay. Guests book the experience in advance and receive, for example, a case file. Your offering becomes part of the story and provides a permanently playable experience.

As a self-playable format
The experience can be designed so guests can play it independently. This creates an offering with low staffing requirements and high flexibility-ideal for individual schedules and different groups.

With video moderation
Targeted video clips or the entire moderation require minimal staff and create an exciting, time-framed experience.

As a package
Combinable with overnight stay, menu, wine tasting or other services - perfect as a sellable package or special highlight for different target groups.

Tailor-made
Non-binding inquiry?
How does a non-binding inquiry work?We first discuss your house, your guests, and your ideas. Then you will receive an assessment of which crime format might suit your establishment. Only if the concept, scope, and execution suit you will you decide on a collaboration.
Number of guests?
How many guests can participate?Depending on the concept, at an evening event about 6 to 80 people can play at the same time. With a permanently integrated offering, the number of guests is unlimited, as play takes place independently.
With menu?
Does the crime experience have to be combined with a menu?No. The experience can be part of a stay that guests enjoy regardless of the time of day. The offering can run like a red thread through an evening or be combined with a meal. The integration will be tailored to your establishment.
Bookable add-on offering?
Can existing offers be integrated?Yes. Menus, wine tastings, city tours, wellness services, overnight packages, or other program elements can be incorporated into the story on request. This creates a coherent experience rather than an isolated add-on.
Our premises?
Can our rooms be incorporated into the story?Absolutely. Historic buildings, cellars, gardens, restaurants, conference rooms or special corners of your house can become part of the plot. It is precisely this connection between place and story that makes the experience special.
Possible without experience?
Does our venue need prior experience with murder mystery dinners or events?No. You do not need experience with mystery events. I will support you from the first idea through implementation and develop a concept that fits your resources, rooms, and processes.
A lot of effort?
How much effort is required from our team?As little as possible. After a joint conversation I develop the case and coordinate all important points with you. Your team can continue to focus on its guests.
Offer for external guests?
Is the offer also suitable for external guests?Yes. Many properties can attract not only overnight guests with a crime mystery experience but also visitors from the local area. This creates an additional reason to visit your property.
Which target group?
What kind of guests is the offer suitable for?The crime experience is suitable for hotel guests, corporate groups, travel groups, and local guests. I even develop detective cases for children or teenagers. Together we define the target audience so that the crime experience creates attractive added value.
One-time or recurring event?
Can we offer the experience regularly?Depending on the concept, the crime experience can be developed as a recurring event, a seasonal highlight, or a permanent offering. Multiple different cases or an ongoing crime series are also possible.
Is it worth it?
Why is a bespoke crime experience worthwhile?A tailor-made crime experience provides an extra reason to book and makes your property emotionally tangible. Guests take away not just a stay, but a story. This creates conversation, memories, and recommendations.
How individual?
How individualized is the crime experience?Every story is created anew. Instead of ready-made standard cases, I develop a criminal case that fits your house, your target audience, and your atmosphere. This creates an experience that exists only with you.
Classic murder mystery dinner?
How does the concept differ from a classic murder mystery dinner?There is no stage, no audience and no standard story. Your guests become part of the case themselves and experience your house from a new perspective. Every criminal case is developed individually and fits exactly to your establishment. No murder mystery dinner with actors carried out purely for entertainment can offer that.
Murder mystery dinner as marketing?
Is a crime experience also a branding tool?Yes. A custom-developed crime experience turns your venue itself into the setting of the story. Your rooms, your atmosphere, your region, or special details of your business can be incorporated into the case. This creates an experience that not only entertains guests but links them directly to your venue.
