The whole evening is hilarious, engaging, and keeps everyone on the edge of their seats,” says Erica Fink, marketing director for The Sands.

Guests will enjoy a throw-back atmosphere, as well as beer, wine, and quality Italian buffet-style cuisine. Christopher Daniels, veteran Utility Player and creator of the murder mystery, says, “Pack of Rats is an immersive theatrical experience. From the moment patrons walk in, they are transported and get the opportunity to lose themselves in the ambiance of this intriguing mystery.” Guests are encouraged to dress up in 1950’s style mob outfits to add to that effect. Prizes are raffled among those who correctly solve the mystery.
