Omagh

Who Obliterated Oliver In Omagh?

Oliver O’Neill has been found murdered in the historic city of Omagh and we desperately need your help to solve the murder.

  • The Omagh Whodunit Hunt is a self-guided, walking murder mystery trail.
  • Omagh is alas remembered for the 1998 bombing that has resulted in a beautiful memorial garden being created to remember the victims. As well as visiting this garden, you’ll see quite a number of historic buildings on the clue route including beautiful churches, an old stone bridge, and the impressive courthouse. There is a musical interest too at more than one stop!
  • There are 26 clues to solve, including quite a few picture clues to spot in order to narrow down the case evidence.
  • The route is only 1 ½ miles / 2 ½ km.
  • The recommended time for this murder mystery, excluding refreshment stops, is two hours.
  • Accessibility – this is a mostly fairly flat route, with no steps, but there are some inclines near the start and end points.

Taster Trails

Short On Time? Try A Taster Trail!

Ever thought of trying a Whodunit Hunt but always short on time or weren’t sure how much you’d enjoy it? Or wondered if you’d be ‘good enough’ to solve a case (which really doesn’t matter)? Then try one of our new taster trails! We’ve specifically designed them to take around 90 minutes to complete with walking routes of less than a mile. We’ll give you help with two clues if you get stuck.

There are now four walking taster trails available: our Belfast Europa Trail, a Newry Taster Trail, recently launched Newtownards taster trail, and now an indoor one at Down County Museum in Downpatrick. There are still 16-18 clues to solve (rather less than the 30+ clues in our standard length trails in these cities) but you’ll still get to see interesting places, learn about historic sites and notable people from these areas, and discover something new!

There are also two driving taster trails too, the Torr Road Taster Trail that starts at the quaint village of Cushendun and the Harry Ferguson Trail which follows in the footsteps of the famous inventor.

So try one of these taster trails and see if you’d like more of our kind of fun… definitely something different to do, for sure! They are at a bargain price of only £3.99!!

After purchase, we supply guidance on running your event and indicate the best place(s) for your teams to meet near the starting point.
