Flappers, Flasks, and Foul Play – Murder Mystery Fundraiser for the United Way

Saturday, March 11, 2023, 6-9 pm

Aerie Bed and Breakfast Speakeasy

509 Pollock Street, New Bern



Join United Way of Coastal Carolina in helping to solve a murder at the inaugural Murder Mystery Fundraiser: Flappers, Flasks, and Foul Play on March 11. Please take the opportunity to attend a Gatsby-themed murder mystery party at the Aerie Bed and Breakfast and help our local community. Travel to a 1920 prohibition Speakeasy in costume and participate in solving the mystery as a murder happens. Each attendee will be given a role from the time period - from gangster, mogul, newsie, shyster, flapper, and more - and put their sleuthing skills to the test as the evening unfolds. There will be cocktails, food, and music, and the best detective will receive a fishing charter from Driftwood Charters. Prizes will also be awarded for the best costume, the most convincing character, and more.


The tickets are $100 each, and overnight packages are available through the Aerie Bed and Breakfast website for those who don't want to leave. Tickets are limited and can be purchased on the United Way of Coastal Carolina website or Facebook page.
