Bitchery reader Marianne sent me the following info:
I got an e-mail from a company that I’d bought a murder mystery from….
Title was: Planned your Halloween party yet?
And one of the suggestions…
We wanted to send a friendly reminder that Halloween is fast approaching approaching. As a result, we would like to suggest a murder mystery themed event to ring in this year’s Allhallows’ eve. It just so happens, that we think murder mysteries and Halloween go hand-in-hand. Furthermore, this year we have created extra spooky Halloween murder mysteries. In
Halloween with The Hoff
, Mr. David Hasslehoff is having a Halloween party at his luxurious estate and many iconic celebrities are invited. However, “The Hoff” goes belly-up at the beginning of the soiree, allowing for all in attendance as a possible suspect. It would appear “The Hoff” has many enemies, so, solving this mystery will be no walk in the park.
Unthinkable that he has that many enemies…
No really: check it out. The Hoff has Halloween stuff hidden in all his crevices. And iconic celebrities? Like who? Who are the iconic enemies of The Hoff? We must flush them out and be rid of them!
I like this line in the ad…
“This mystery can be modified for church groups and team builders.”
hmm, church groups, murder mystery, David Hasselhoff. What a simply enticing way to spend Halloween—NOT.
OMG! I live in Seattle. That’s not too terribly far from L.A.
I should go to this. Only $8? Plus $500 airfare and accomodations? Hmmm, not seemiing like such a great deal anymore.
I love Rule #1: “He is now only to be referred to as ‘The Hoff.’”
I’m kind of appalled at how badly that blurb is writen. Ick.
That’s gold. No line of snark could possibly do it justice.
