It is Halloween night, and deep within the shadowed halls of Dracula’s ancient castle in Transylvania, the supernatural elite have gathered for a most unusual celebration. Vampires, witches, mummies, and other creatures of the night have traveled from across the immortal world to celebrate a very special birthday. Beneath flickering candlelight and towering stone walls, ancient rivalries simmer, secrets lurk in every shadow, and not everyone has arrived with good intentions.

But before the night is over, one of the guests will meet a most untimely end.

As suspicion spreads throughout the castle, everyone becomes a suspect. Was it the witch hiding a dangerous curse? The mummy protecting secrets buried for centuries? The vampiress seeking revenge? Or someone far more sinister hiding in plain sight? You must uncover the clues, expose hidden motives, and determine who among you is responsible before the night becomes eternal.

What to Expect:

• A thrilling evening of interactive murder mystery gameplay guided by a host or hostess
• Clues, secrets, and puzzles hidden throughout the evening
• Three glasses of Messina Hof wine included with each ticket
• A themed, buffet-style dinner
• A gothic Halloween atmosphere filled with vampires, witches, and creatures of the night
• Costumes are highly encouraged

For five decades, the Messina Hof story has been rooted in family, tradition, romance, and a passion for Texas wine. 🍷

Messina, Sicily, has been part of our story since the beginning. When Paul Vincent and Merrill Bonarrigo founded Messina Hof in 1977, they brought together their family roots in Messina, Sicily, and Hof, Germany – a name that reflects the family history and traditions behind their dream of making great wine in Texas.

Now, we’re celebrating those roots as we kick off our 50th Anniversary year on New Year’s Eve!

At 5 PM Texas time, it will be midnight in Messina, Sicily. Join us at 4 PM for a cocktail-style celebration at our Estate, Grapevine, and Harvest Green locations as we raise a glass to 50 years of Messina Hof.

Here’s to 50 years – and the next chapter! 🥂
