Following on from the summer hit, The Unholy Marriage of Slice and Sweetly, ImmerCity are bringing back two audience favourites from the immersive Mysteries murder mystery series.
All the ImmerCity Immersive Mysteries combine eerie, atmospheric theatre with the fun and excitement of a Murder Mystery. The shows are created based on the era the location was built, mixing history and popular fiction themes from the time to create a past that you can really step into and interact with. Following the same format, each show invites the audience to witness the events of the day the mystery took place, interview the suspects and lay a ghost to rest.

"In the present day, a child’s crying has been heard from beneath the Cornish Engine and it is starting to unnerve the tourists. The Museum has invited the master of the supernatural, Jack Daw, to resurrect the past and uncover the truth about what happened all those years ago
It was 1871 and every level was bustling with activity in preparation for the grand opening of the 100inch Cornish Engine. There was to be a huge gala to celebrate London’s answer to clean water. The violinists were tuning-up, the Manager was practicing his speech and some last minute mechanical issues were being fixed. However, two unexpected guests from the workhouse have turned up, demanding to see the small boy that was apprenticed to the Chief Engineer.
An immersive Victorian mystery about the blazing desires that lurk within cold mechanical brutality."

A new spy thriller set in the gloomy bowels of a 1960’s Library.
"The old librarian, Gwendolyn Radcliffe, never forgot that fateful night in June 1962. Esteban Moreño’s lecture on Cuban music was poorly attended. His meagre audience was composed of herself, a young journalist, his model girlfriend, a Mathematics student and a drunken vagabond. However, the event made the news when the drunk was found dead beneath the Library less than an hour later. The police never identified him, but from then on Gwen often felt she could see the haunting shadow of a sleeping man.
Now, Gwendolyn has discovered that an undercover agent named ‘Anillo Rojo’ disappeared in London that very same night. She has hired the master of the supernatural, Jack Daw, to investigate this mystery. He is looking for bright minded people to join him and unlock the dark past of the Library."
