Murder Mystery at Feathers Hotel

25th October 2025

A classic whodunnit murder mystery in Shropshire at the Feathers Hotel, Ludlow.

The Story – The Mucklington Murders

The year is 1937, and all is not well in the English village of West Mucklington Parva. The widow, Rose Stimper, has passed away, leaving a substantial amount of money. As per her last Will & Testament, the villagers get together to decide how the money should be used, with the winner receiving the funds. To some people, the idea of using the money for something was nothing more than a bit of fun; however, others took it very, very seriously; indeed, you might say some might even commit murder.
