Hats, Horses & Homicide

A Kentucky Derby–Inspired Brunch Murder Mystery on the Sandhills Trolley

Big hats. Fast horses. High stakes.

Step aboard the Sandhills Trolley for a Derby Day brunch like no other—where mint juleps are flowing, bets are being placed, and secrets are just waiting to spill. What starts as a glamorous celebration quickly takes a deadly turn when one guest won’t make it to the finish line.

As the trolley rolls through the Pines, guests will be swept into a lively, interactive murder mystery filled with jockeys, horse owners, socialites, bettors, and behind-the-scenes drama. Everyone has a motive, everyone has an alibi… and nothing is quite what it seems.

Dress to impress with your finest Derby flair—hats are highly encouraged! Expect playful clues, spirited characters, photo-worthy moments, and plenty of chances to mingle as you try to solve the crime before the final stop.
