THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE GUILTY

The world record for biggest Host A Murder – 300 people in one sitting – is held by Peter Eedy. Invited to NSW Parliament House to facilitate Host A Murder ‘Hi Teas’, Peter has also facilitated Host A Murder for Tony Robbin’s training team, the Reserve Bank of Australia and Rydges hotel chain owner Alan Rydge.

Unknowingly, Peter became the first person in the world to put on a murder mystery game in a restaurant.

It was in Spring, 1988 that Peter welcomed an old friend, Steve, to his restaurant in Surry Hills, who had one request: to play Host A Murder at his restaurant.

"What the hel l is that?" Peter asked. After Steve explained, Peter asked: "Didn’t you play that in your home a couple of weeks ago?" When Steve agreed, Peter enquired: "Well, why do you want to play it in my restaurant?"

His reply both surprised Peter and got him wondering. “Have you ever cooked a meal for eight people, served them, cleared the table and hosted a game, as well as trying to play it – all at the same time?!” Steve exclaimed. "Well, we did, and by the end of the night my wife and I were exhausted plus we missed out on half the game!"

After that, Peter realised why every second home in Sydney had an unplayed box of How To Host A Murder sitting on their shelves!

"So, what do you want? " Peter enquired. "I just want to sit down and enjoy the game,” Steve said. “I want your chef to cook the food, your waiters to wait on us, and I want you to host the game!” Intrigued by Steve’s suggestion, Peter responded with: "Bring it on!”

Steve inst ructed Peter on how to host the game and, in spite of making some blunders in handing out the secret clues, the first Host A Murder went brilliantly! Guests enjoyed the experience immensely – Peter reporting that it was hilarious as well as enthralling.

A few weeks later, Peter invited Steve to host another game in the restaurant – the idea of putting on Host A Murder on a regular basis in his restaurant beginning to dawn on him.

A Game History

Following Steve’s second game, Peter decided that he would first try one out with his friends, providing the food and drinks as well as hosting it himself – leading him to become the first person to put on a murder mystery game in a restaurant. The next is history!

Within a couple of years, Peter received so much publicity that the distributors gave him exclusive permission to use the game as well as use their logo in his promotions. Then Peter knew he had d iscovered a drawcard that was original, fun and entertaining as well as appealing to all ages – attracting many people to his restaurant.

Over the years, Peter expanded o uts ide his restaurant "Humble Beginnings" to other locations, near and far – as far afield as Fiji. After recovering from Covid-19 and having his entire business wiped out in 24 hours, he is now very much in demand, with companies wanting his services for team building.

Peter and his team are back a nd available for the game that will not die – for birthdays, hens’ nights, social clubs, graduations, farewell dinners, and reunions.
