Cruise Ship Etiquette
Here are 10 ways to show you know proper cruise-ship etiquette as edited for your Cruising For Murder Cruise!
1. Pay attention at the safety drill. Don’t talk. Don’t drink. Don’t take photos. If there’s a time to be serious on your cruise vacation, this is (not) it. (If your host has gone above and beyond to include a safety demonstration, relish in it!)
2. Be spatially aware. You aren’t the only one on the ship. If there is a line at the elevators and you can take the stairs, take them. If you’re a slow walker, let the person behind you pass in the narrow cabin hallways. At the buffet, if you’re alone at a table for six, consider sharing. Make sure you are conversing and spreading the joy (and listening on other’s conversations).
3. Avoid being a deck-chair hog.Reserving a deck chair for the whole day at the pool by leaving your stuff, even when you won’t be there the whole time, is not considered courteous. Spend your time in the sun and then clear the space for someone else. Spend your time at the bar, chatting up with your fellow party-goers and spreading as many secrets and starting as much scandal as you can!
4. Don’t save seats for your band of eight in the theater. Make new friends and sit with them! Make sure to find out what secrets they may have!
5. Make choices quickly at the buffet (it helps to take a look before you get in line). The buffet line is also not the time to lecture your child or quiz a chef about every ingredient in every dish. Be sure to tell your host what a great job they did preparing food!
6. Check promptly that the luggage delivered to your room(or outside your door) your nametag and objectives are is your own.
7. Keep your kids under control. Just because you are on a cruise ship doesn’t mean you can stop parenting. The kids should not be running wild. Also, don’t try to sneak youngsters into adults-only areas of the ship – such as the quiet pool, gym, hot tubs, or spa. Follow the age rules. Make sure with your host that kids are invited, as Cruising for Murder does have adult topics within it. Murder, for instance.
8. Talk quietly (no shouting) on cabin balconies and in cabin hallways. Your neighbors can hear you, including when you let your cabin door slam. Especially if you are the murderer.
9. Arrive on time. When you are at an assigned table at a set time, it’s uncool to keep your tablemates waiting. This goes DOUBLE for your evening of mayhem and mystery— the party can’t start till you are all there!
10. Follow the dress code. Nothing gets the ire of fellow passengers more then when they follow the dress code – putting on a jacket or tie, for instance – and you blow it off, showing up in the dining room carefree in a Hawaiian shirt. If you want to go casual on a more formal night, head to the Lido buffet. Go overboard on accessories, outfits, props, etc. Nothing will delight your host and fellow guests more than a fellow party-goer that has gone all out! Not to mention, the idea of being awarded Best Dressed at the end of the night!

Costume Ideas
Cruising For Murder is a fun cruise ship murder mystery game to costume for since you can dress up as much or as little as you desire. Personally, we suggest that you go “over the top” in your outfit — whether that means a brightly colored wig or a full-fledged costume is totally up to you! Our research shows that the more you dress up, the easier it is to act out your character and be as crazy as you want to be — I mean, you are wearing a costume it is not really YOU!

How To Make A Show Girl Costume
Creating a showgirl costume for a murder mystery party can be a fun and creative endeavor. Showgirl costumes are often glamorous, flamboyant, and filled with feathers and sparkles. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you make a showgirl costume:
Materials Needed:
Base Costume: – Start with a leotard, bodysuit, or a fitted corset. Choose a color that suits your style, such as red, black, or gold.
Feathers: – Purchase feather boas in your chosen color scheme. You can find them in craft stores or online. Consider using ostrich feathers for a luxurious look.
Sequins and Rhinestones: – Embellish your costume with sequins and rhinestones. You can sew or glue them onto the leotard or corset to add sparkle.
Tulle or Mesh Fabric: – Attach layers of tulle or mesh fabric to the bottom of the leotard or corset to create a skirt. This can be either a short skirt or a longer, floor-length option.
Gloves: – Long gloves are a classic showgirl accessory. Opt for satin or lace gloves that reach your elbows or beyond.
Headpiece: – Create a glamorous headpiece with feathers, sequins, and a headband. You can find pre-made options in craft stores or make your own.
Fishnet Stockings:– Pair your costume with fishnet stockings for an extra touch of glamour.
High-Heeled Shoes:– Choose a pair of high-heeled shoes in a coordinating color. Strappy sandals or classic pumps work well.
Makeup: – Go for bold, dramatic makeup. Consider using false eyelashes, bright red lipstick, and heavy eye makeup.
Accessorize:– Consider adding additional accessories like a feathered fan, a boa, or statement jewelry to enhance your showgirl persona.
Cruise Party Decoration Ideas
Ideas for both inside and outside your party space!
Setting the Scene
Create Your Entrance
Create Your Entrance
Cruise Ship Terminal: Create a sign.
Alongside your terminal sign, put anchors, a ship’s wheel, with perhaps some fishing nets, toy ships and plastic fish.
Have your guests enter along a gangway.
You can lay down planks that lead to the doorway or you can simply use cardboard and paint it to look like planks.
Use small poles and rope to line the entrance as they’re making their way aboard.
Scatter blue cellophane along the walkway to make water.
You could even make cut-outs of fish to lay across the cellophane or make shark fins out of cardboard to have rising from the water (from aluminum foil or gray poster board
Nautical Archway: Create a large ship entrance using cardboard or wood, painted to look like the entrance to a grand ship. Hang a ship’s bell by the entrance that guests can ring upon entry.
Red Carpet: Lay a “gangplank” red carpet leading up to the entrance. This gives guests a VIP feeling, as if they’re boarding a luxury liner.
Rope Barriers: Use thick ropes and stanchions to guide the guests, giving a maritime look.
Life Rings: Hang life rings or lifesavers with the name of your mystery event or ship’s name written on them.
Ship’s Wheel & Anchor: Place a ship’s wheel or anchor near the entrance. This could be a prop or a smaller decorative piece.
Port and Starboard Lanterns: Illuminate the entrance with traditional ship lanterns, using green for the starboard (right) side and red for port (left) side.
Dramatic Lighting: Use strategic lighting, such as spotlights or colored bulbs, to highlight certain aspects of the entrance and create a mood.
Sea-themed Balloons: Consider having helium balloons in the shape of dolphins, whales, or anchors.
Seagull Sounds: Use hidden speakers to play sounds of seagulls and gentle ocean waves. This not only adds to the maritime ambiance but also creates an auditory transition from the outside world.
Fog Machine: Add a touch of mystery with a fog machine, creating a light mist as if you’re out at sea.
Welcoming Crew: Have a couple of friends or staff dressed as ship crew members (captain, sailors, or stewards) to welcome guests onboard.
Cruise Tickets: Provide “boarding passes” as invitations and have a mock check-in counter where guests can be “checked in”.
Welcome Aboard! Place a sign at the entrance that reads, “Welcome Aboard! Mystery of the Seas.” Create your own or use the one included with the mystery purchase!
Greet guests in cruise ship style with a life preserver arch and lots of balloons in red, white and blue.
(This is a perfect place for a photo spot!)
- After having a photo, direct them to the purser, who will hand them their party information (name tag, money, “a” objectives, etc.).
- See “creating a photo spot” for more ideas
- Upon entering, have your guests pose for a photo (see ‘making a photo spot’ below).

Setting the Table
Setting the Table

- Nautical Colors: Start with a color scheme that reflects the sea, such as blue and white. You can also incorporate accents of red and gold for a classic nautical look.

Lighting
Lighting
Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the mood and atmosphere for a cruise-themed murder mystery party. To create an ambiance that enhances the intrigue and excitement of the event, consider the following lighting ideas:
Soft, Ambient Lighting:Use warm, soft lighting to mimic the gentle glow of the ship’s interior. This can be achieved with table lamps, string lights, or candles in hurricane lanterns. Dim the overhead lights to create a cozy atmosphere.
Flickering Candles: Place faux or real candles in decorative candle holders on tables, mantels, and other surfaces. Opt for battery-operated candles for safety if your event is indoors or if open flames are not allowed.
Blue and Green Uplighting: Use blue and green LED uplighting to create the illusion of the ocean’s hues. These colors can evoke a sense of being on a cruise ship.
Porthole Projections: Project porthole window scenes onto walls or screens to simulate the view from a ship’s cabin. You can find projector discs or digital files with animated ocean views and ship interiors.
Spotlighting: Use spotlights or narrow-beam LED lights to highlight important props or areas, such as a crime scene or important clues. This can add an element of suspense and draw attention to key details.
Nautical Rope Lights: Nautical Rope Lights: String nautical-themed rope lights along railings, walls, or ceilings to create a coastal and ship-like atmosphere.
Colored Gels: Place colored gels or filters over existing lights to create a sea-inspired ambiance. Blue and green gels can evoke the ocean, while red gels may suggest a dramatic turn of events.
Remember to balance your lighting to suit the different phases of your murder mystery party, transitioning from warm and welcoming lighting at the start to more dramatic and suspenseful lighting as the mystery unfolds. By paying attention to your lighting design, you can create a cruise-themed murder mystery party that immerses your guests in a thrilling and mysterious atmosphere.
Color Scheme
Color Scheme
Nautical Color Palette: Use navy, white, gold, and touches of red for linens, tablecloths, and decor.
To pull the color scheme through to your whole space consider the following:
Linens and Drapery:
- Use navy tablecloths or runners paired with white napkins.
- White drapes with navy or gold tie-backs will add elegance to the space.
- Consider red accents for smaller items like napkin rings or table number holders.
Centerpieces:
- White candles in gold or navy candle holders.
- Bowls filled with water, navy-colored stones, and floating white candles.
- Incorporate driftwood, accented with gold spray paint or gold ribbons.
Table Settings:
- White plates with navy blue rims or patterns.
- Gold flatware and chargers.
- Red wine glasses or cups to incorporate a touch of red.
Wall Decor:
- Hang navy and white striped patterns or fabrics on the walls.
- Use gold-framed mirrors or artwork with sea motifs.
Fabrics: When decorating a large area or to make an area look more intimate and festive, consider draping white or navy gossamer across the ceiling, walls, and edges of the tablecloth. Combine two colors for a fabulous appearance.
Spray Paint: A little spray paint can go a long, long way.
- Spray paint novelty items, vases, old wine bottles, etc. to help bring out the color theme and add inexpensive decoration to your party.
Create a Photo Spot!
Create a Photo Spot
Give your guests an unforgettable souvenir by setting up a photo area where they can capture a picture of themselves in character.
A few suggestions:
- Pick a place where there will be good lighting.
- You can make it as elaborate or simple as you want.
- Accessories and decorations can make the difference. Have some extra props on hand that your guests can pose with. Consider extra captain’s hats, feather boas, tiaras, lifesavers, large sunglasses, anchors, etc.
- An easy way to create a background is to use a “scene setter”. These affordable rolls of images transform your room instantly and make for a good backdrop to your picture.
- Make sure there is enough room to fit everyone in to the frame.
- For individual shots of guests, designate someone to be in charge of pictures as your guests arrive.o Consider your character list and which character would fit the role of taking the picture. Ie, if you want mug shots, perhaps ask the investigator to be in charge of taking the pictures.
- For a group picture, take one just before the introduction is read or right after the solution is read (before people may start heading out).
- These are two times when you can count on everyone being around and attentive.
BACKDROP IDEAS for your cruise ship photo spot
- Take a picture as the guests enter on the gangplank.
- Use scene setters to make a simple background. There are many that are cruise themed.
- Create a ship’s wheel for your guests to pose behind.
- Have additional props such as: captain’s hats, an anchor, life preservers, buoys, etc.
- Paint your own backdrop to pose in front of!

Tips
All of the information regarding how to run your Cruising For Murder party can be found online at Night of Mystery. We highly suggest that you take time to look over our website and download the Cruising For Murder preview file. Upon reading the introduction file, it will give you a better understanding about how the parties are run and what to expect once you purchase a full mystery file.
If you still have question, the Frequently Asked Questions page at Night of Mystery is a great resource or you can contact us.
Since our games are custom written for the size of the party (ie, we don’t just create a mystery with 8 characters and then keep adding more characters to it), each mystery size is unique unto itself. That being said, going from 10-15 version to 15-20 version, will not only add in more characters, but it will change the storylines of the existing characters, and vice-versa in going from a larger version to a smaller one.
Because of this, WE STRONGLY SUGGEST you get a guest count before formally ordering. You can do so by downloading an invitation, inviting your guests and then purchasing your mystery once you have a more accurate number of people attending. Unfortunately, if you find yourself purchasing the wrong sized party, you will have to purchase another version of the mystery for the size you want unless you are moving from the 15-20 version to the 20+ version.
You can download an invitation here before ordering.
To get in the mood, check out some old episodes of The Love Boat, or other movies where the characters are on a cruise.
