+ Season Concept

When Celestine Broussard, the leader of the Mystic Krewe of Marie Laveau, is murdered the night before the group’s Mardi Gras parade, her best friend Sylvia finds that there is more to this celebration than meets the eye. Digging beneath the glittering surface of the party to end all parties, Sylvia must uncover the truth about Celestine and the people in her life — no matter how shocking it might be.

+ Season-Specific Guidelines

Dedicate a space to sift through evidence.
Organize your evidence with a Murder Board.
Gather your resources: pens, highlighters, notebooks, and other investigative tools.
Be sure to hold on to every piece of evidence—you never know when a new clue might help to recontextualize something you’ve already seen!
Examine everything:
- Read through detailed documents, ranging from forensic reports to handwritten correspondences.
- Examine unique objects connected to the crime.
- Continue your investigation online with in-story websites.
To complete an episode:
- Your contact will give you an objective to complete each episode. To communicate that you've completed this assignment and to share your findings, follow the instructions at the end of her letter to send her a message.
- In her letter, she will ask you to put a specific answer to the assignment in the body of the correspondence. Be sure to do this! If you don’t, your message might get lost.
- After sending your message, you should receive a response from your contact confirming if you were correct or if you need to try again.
