Cogs and Corsets A Steampunk Happening
Those attending the mystery event “Metal Murder” at Reality on Monroe in Bloomington, Illinois, on June 3 will find themselves transported back to England in 1898. They will learn about the heroism and tragedy that occurred during the Great Zeppelin War of 1892 and also discover the events that led to the untimely death of an eminent scientist, Professor R. U. Shure.
Each person in attendance will assume a character for the evening and be given information about themselves and others present. They will meet Professor Shure’s assistant, Algy Brahe, and his spiritualist, the enigmatic Claire Voyant. But they must be on their guard for somewhere in the people present, a murderer is lurking. It is in their best interest to solve the crime to prevent more people from dying. But, can they do it? Can they sort through the clues and red herrings and find out the truth? This event is performed by the Saint Louis Mystery Company.
“Cogs and Corsets” will be held in Bloomington from June 2 to June 4. Tickets to the mystery event may be purchased at their website:
