Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Two lovers rent a marvelous old Victorian mansion and invite a group of their friends for a Murder Mystery Weekend. Things get off to a less than fantastic start, however, when, while having a glass of after-dinner champagne, one of the lovers, Gregg Rockwell, crashes to the table, dead from poisoning.
