The Inn at ONU hosts the event Oct. 27-28

Here's the lowdown on the Friday-Saturday, Oct. 27-28 comedy murder mystery event at The Inn at ONU.

Family and friends of Horatio Hornblow Haversham gather at his mountain castle on his 90th birthday. A terrible storm rages on outside but even more dire events take place inside the mansion walls. A midnight séance! Ghostly spirits from beyond! A last will is missing! Mysterious uninvited strangers. And dead bodies piling up. This funny murder mystery has lots of laughs and chills.

Appetizers are served from 6 to 6:30 p.m. and the drama follows.
