The Edmond History Museum invites the public to experience a unique blend of history and mystery with Flour, Lies, & Alibis, an immersive murder mystery event held at the historic Rodkey House on October 25 and 26, 2024. This interactive, hour-long experience will allow participants to step back in time, assuming the roles of both suspects and detectives as they work together to solve a fictional crime. Lorie, the Education Manager at Edmond History Museum said, “It’s a one-of-a-kind event that combines history with a hands-on, interactive adventure.”

The Rodkey House, built in 1900, will serve as the atmospheric backdrop for this thrilling event, where participants will unravel clues and uncover secrets. While the mystery itself is fictional, the characters and storyline are based on real figures from Edmond’s rich history. A host, playing the role of a police chief, will guide participants through the case, ensuring the clues unfold in an engaging and entertaining way.

“My grandfather Earl Rodkey never told me he’d found any skeletons in our family’s closet. So, I’m eager to discover the mystery at the Rodkey house,” said Keneth Rodkey Rees, great-grandson of Isaac Rodkey who built the house in 1900.

Each session is limited to 10 participants to ensure an intimate and immersive experience. Tickets are $25 per person or $200 for a group of 10, and light appetizers are included in the ticket price. Guests are encouraged to note any food allergies when purchasing their tickets.
