Plot

Zombie Apocalypse Murder Mystery Introduction To The Theme

Zombies are everywhere. The undead, plaguing the few remaining survivors after the zombie apocalypse broke out, killing thousands and leaving thousands more living- or existing- as zombies. After the zombie virus was accidentally released into the public, the apocalypse followed, and the people have been vastly unprepared. 

No one was safe- mothers, fathers, children, politicians, soldiers, police. Going outside meant certain death, yet supplies and safety were running low, and so were fresh brains. 

When a group of survivors holed up in a bunker, they thought that they were safe. There was an abundance of supplies, and while there still were occasionally zombies, they were not able to infiltrate the walls of the bunker- yet. However, when one of their own was found with a bullet wound in his heart, they knew that someone in the bunker had turned on them. There were a few items found by the body, including a note with “a967he2u” written on it, a pair of golden-rimmed glasses, a rubber band, and a strip of red fabric. 

It is up to you to figure out who killed Brad Hershaw: and all of you are suspects. It could be any of you, and remember… no one knows who did it, not even the killer themself. It is now time for you to begin questioning in order to find out who had the motive, means, and opportunity to kill Brad Hershaw. Good luck.

Sample Characters (Actual Characters Will Vary Based on Number/Gender of Players)

Jennifer is very strong willed and intelligent. She was a lawyer before the apocalypse hit, and she was notorious for her brutality and her inability to lose a case. Jennifer is very resourceful, and she uses her skills as a lawyer in order to survive and take control of the group of survivors.

Caleb is very kind, yet in the recent fear that has been consuming the entire world, he has been struggling to keep his composure. Caleb used to be a teacher, and when the apocalypse first started his classroom was rampaged. He has not been able to forgive himself for leaving his kids behind, and ever since he has been lashing out.

Robyn’s brother, Brad, was the victim. The two of them managed to escape together, and Robyn had been relying on her brother to keep her alive. She and her brother were very close, with both of them working together as servers prior to the outbreak, and his death was heartbreaking. Robyn is hungry for revenge, and she is desperate to make it out alive.

Michaela is very intelligent and she uses her instincts in order to survive. She worked as a research professor at a local university and was in the middle of an experiment when the outbreak occurred. Michaela has been desperately searching for a cure for the zombie outbreak, and while she was close, she was not quite there yet.

Thomas is known for being lazy. He was a graphic designer who spent his days at home, rarely venturing outside of his bed. However, when the apocalypse broke out, Thomas showed a whole new side of himself. He was one of the leaders of the group and devised a comprehensive plan of safety. Thomas loves being in charge, even if it took a zombie outbreak to get there.

Justin is a stay at home father. He lost his family in the chaos and has been desperately searching for them. While Justin has yet to find them, he still has hope and continues to do everything in his power to find them. He is overridden with guilt and fear, yet it is what has driven him to become so determined and so strong-willed throughout the apocalypse.
