Who Put An End To Donna’s Life In Downpatrick?
A staff member was devastated to discover the dead body of Donna Patterson one morning tied to the main gate at the entrance to the museum. Evidence collated by detectives confirms that she was killed elsewhere in or near Downpatrick… but who by, with what weapon, and where? The mystery behind her death can only be revealed by following the evidence trail around the museum’s exhibition areas and old jail cells!
This is a self-guided, indoor murder mystery in Downpatrick’s Down County Museum, a perfect adventure for a wet day!- Intriguingly, the mystery behind Donna’s death can be unravelled by following the trail of clues around the museum’s exhibition rooms and cells using just some of the very interesting items on display to solve case clues! Time travel through 9,000 years of history from the Bronze Age to the 1970s!
- This murder mystery trail has 38 clues to solve and a few bits of historical trivia squeezed into it too! Allow 2-3 hours to solve the clues… depending upon how much time you read about other exhibits as you go around the museum.
- If you’d prefer to do a shorter museum trail (which has different clues), if you’re short on time or want to start off small with a first Whodunit Hunt, click here to visit the museum taster page.
- You can do this trail on any day that the museum is open. Note, the museum is closed on Sundays, Mondays and of course on Christmas / New Years bank holidays.
- Accessibility – the clue route is only 1/3 mile long, or 1/2 km! Ramp and lifts are available to the different exhibition rooms.
