SUMC enjoyed a spooky session on Friday 30th, with members dressing up to come climbing – and we had some absolutely fantastic costumes!
As part of our session, we played a murder mystery game, using skeletons hung around the walls to hide clues and riddles for our players to uncover. Teams had to work together to figure out the identity of each skeleton, how they had died and, most importantly, who was responsible! There was also a bonus question for those who could crack the case: What was the motive?
Everyone got stuck in and did a fantastic job of working through the riddles and solving the mystery. Three teams successfully figured out the identities of the skeletons and how they had died, while our winning team went one step further and managed to uncover the motive too!
There were plenty of sweets handed out, and chocolates were won by the teams who successfully solved the murder mystery. A great time was had by everyone, with lots of teamwork, problem-solving and spooky fun!
To finish off the evening, we followed the session with a spooky movie night, watching none other than Scooby-Doo!! 🐾

A fantastic evening filled with brilliant costumes, teamwork, sweet treats and plenty of Halloween fun. Well done to everyone who took part!
