Tokyo Halloween Mystery: Solve the Case in Nihonbashi 🔎🕯️
About this event
🗓 Date: Sunday, October 25, 2026 ⏰ Time: 3:15 PM – 5:45 PM 📍 Location: 〒103-0027 Tokyo, Chuo City, Nihonbashi, 2 Chome−1−17 Niu Bldg., 5F (https://maps.app.goo.gl/e29Dms2CZbZWXjJu6) 💴 Fee: ¥3,000 per person Event Details: Something has happened in Tokyo. The evidence is on the table. Your job is to figure out what actually happened. For this special Halloween-month event, Tokyo Expat Social Club is trying something new: Tokyo Mystery Night, a team-based fictional case-solving experience where you’ll work together to examine clues, question assumptions, and build a theory before the final reveal. You’ll be placed into a small team and receive a case file containing different pieces of evidence — such as suspect profiles, timelines, messages, receipts, photographs, statements, and other clues. Over the course of the afternoon, your team will need to compare information, spot inconsistencies, connect details, and decide: Who did it? Why? And how? At the end, each team will submit its final theory before we reveal what actually happened. This is not a roleplaying event, and you don’t need to act, perform, or come in costume. It’s closer to solving a mystery together around a table with enough structure to keep things interesting, but plenty of room for discussion and debate. No mystery-game or puzzle experience is needed. You also don’t need to come with a team. Most people attend TESC events alone, and we’ll organize everyone into groups when you arrive. 📸 Instagram: @tokyoexpatclub (https://www.instagram.com/tokyoexpatclub?igsh=MWc3Zmc4eDFjaDh0OA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr) 🪩Discord: Tokyo Expat Social Club (https://discord.gg/E9wS8da5bS) 🌿Substack: Tokyo Expat Social Club (http://tokyoexpatsocialclub.substack.com) 💬LINE Group: Tokyo Expat Social Club LINE Group (https://line.me/ti/g2/59cCXk2LJxd9QKnnDpgQZgZJ8Od9d0GK8c3fsw?utm_source=invitation&utm_medium=link_copy&utm_campaign=default) What to Expect: 🔎 A fictional mystery case created for the event 📁 Case files, suspects, timelines, messages, and physical clues 🧠 Team discussion and deduction 👥 Small groups working on the same mystery 🌍 Mix of expats, locals, internationals, new and returning members Why You’ll Enjoy It: • Meet people naturally while working toward something together • Easier for solo attendees because your team gives you an immediate group • No puzzle-solving experience required • Great if you enjoy mysteries, escape rooms, detective stories, or logic games What to Bring: • Something to drink if you’d like • A phone for notes/photos if useful • Your best detective instincts 🔎 Pens, case materials, and everything needed for the mystery will be provided.
