You sit in the parlor, crafting a festive Halloween flower crown, while you wait for Detective Pumpkin to review the files. After you finish, you offer the crown to Detective Pumpkin.
The candle inside her gourdly head flickers with emotion. "The Spirit of Halloween wore these," Detective Pumpkin says, her professional demeanor briefly cracking. She puts the festive Halloween flower crown on her head, then continues. "Your speed and thoroughness are most appreciated. The murder weapon is The Mask of Masking."
You feel the satisfaction of an investigation well-investigated.
Detective Pumpkin hands you three dossiers. "One of these three guests at Trick or Treat Manor is the murder. Please investigate each guest, and report your findings."
****
To investigate, create a work with the tag assigned to that guest. This can be your assignment or an extra treat for anyone whose requests lend themselves to the tag. To report your findings, post the work to the Trick or Treat 2024 collection.
Once a guest's tag reaches 24 works, Detective Pumpkin will review the evidence and announce whether that item is a red herring or the real murderer.
Some tags have a head start, with works already posted :)
The possible murderers are:
Velmarina the Vampire
Tag: Vampires
Mugwortius the Monster
Tag: Monsters
Catherine Catrina Catalina the Cat
Tag: Cats
