Behind the scenes: The Blue Suede Retirement Home

Updated: Oct 2, 2023

Hey there, party people! Guess what? I stumbled upon this gem of a murder mystery idea while indulging in Richard Osman's fantastic Thursday Murderer Club. Seriously, if you haven't read it, you're missing out. Plus, can we talk about the font size? Bigger fonts, because who needs to squint when you can dive into a murder mystery with your eyes wide open, right? (I might sound like the poster child for people with questionable eyesight, but who cares, it's comfy!)


Now, back to our own little masterpiece. I concocted this retirement home murder mystery plot, fully expecting it to gather dust on the virtual shelf. But guess what? Meara Owen-Griffiths, one of our talented writers, not only embraced it but sprinted with it like they were on a caffeine-fueled writing marathon. Suddenly, there he was in the first draft – Teddy Prestley, an Elvis impersonator extraordinaire. And just like that, our story took a rock 'n' roll turn.


Elvis, my friends! The King of Rock and Roll invaded our scriptwriting sessions. Our office became an impromptu Graceland, with Elvis tunes filling the air. Now, I wouldn't call myself the ultimate Elvis aficionado, but let me tell you, by the end of our writing escapades, I was swiveling my hips and crooning along with the best of them.


So, if you're itching for some puns that are as smooth as Elvis' dance moves, songs that'll make your hips sway involuntarily, and a murder mystery that'll keep you guessing until the last note, then dive into our Death at the Blue Suede Retirement Home game! Get ready to shake, rattle, and roll your way through a killer time! 🕺🎶🔍
