Geary County Historical Society
Tickets are on sale now for the Geary County Historical Society’s third annual Murder Mystery Event. The 2025 show, Murder on Mainstreet, will be held on Friday February 28th and Saturday March 1st with doors opening at 5:45pm and the show beginning at 6:30pm.
Step back in time to 1862 “Confluence City” KS, where a wagon train heading west just rolled into town to restock supplies and enjoy one last day in civilization before they enter the open prairie. Wagon train members have been traveling together for nearly two months, tensions are high, and secrets are starting to come out. Everyone is doing their shopping on Mainstreet when suddenly a gun goes off and the wagon master is found dead. It will be up to guests at the local saloon to help Deputy D. O. Wright solve the murder.
Tickets include: a one-of-a-kind interactive murder mystery, one drink ticket, a catered BBQ dinner with all the fixin’s, and an old-fashioned photo taken of each party. Costumes are encouraged and photos will be taken from 5:45pm-6:30pm.
Tickets can be purchased by cash or check at the museum, located at 530 N Adams, Junction City or online through the museum website, gearyhistory.org. Processing fees apply with online purchases. All proceeds from the event help support the Geary County Historical Society.
