For more than 15 years, mysterious characters have rendezvoused at our bed and breakfast in Newfoundland, Pennsylvania, where for three days and two nights, murder, mystery and mayhem seem to prevail. The cast of characters are guests who join us for a Murder Mystery Weekend, each designed around a theme or event or time period in history. We’ve entertained mobsters and molls from the ’50s, flower children and hippies at Woodstock. Who will win? Who will lose? And who will never be heard from again? All will be revealed in our next Murder Mystery Weekend!

It's 1840, and the trail from Independence, Missouri to Oregon City is not for the meek. Those are 2,174 of the most dangerous miles in the world. As your wagon train continues its perilous journey, a stopover is needed in the wild west town of Ford City. This is a chance to resupply, mingle with the townspeople and maybe even sleep in a real bed for one night. Ford City has no recognized government, but a U.S. Marshal has the authority to keep the peace, settle disputes and perhaps even try to solve a...Murder on the Oregon Trail...
