A Haunted Heist presented by audiochuck

In this evening of eerie intrigue, beloved jewels (that were worn by one of the brides at the Landon sister’s double wedding on June 2, 1920) have gone missing from the IMA Galleries. It’s up to you to solve the spooky heist with the help of a custom-crafted story from the award-winning podcast powerhouse, audiochuck, known for chart-topping hits like Crime Junkie and So Supernatural. This exclusive narrative, written just for Newfields, will guide your investigation through chilling clues, supernatural twists, and shadowy suspects. 

Meet in the Efroymson Family Entrance Pavilion where you’ll receive your investigation packet. Expect help and a few surprises along the way from live characters brought to life by audiochuck talent and Newfields staff. You are encouraged to don your finest 1920s or Clue-inspired costumes (no full-face masks or weapon props) for this evening of intrigue, deception, and deduction.  

Once you’ve pieced together the case and are ready to make your accusation, head to The Tobias Theater and visit the audiochuck table to submit your guess — and pick up a drink ticket for a complimentary cocktail from the lobby bar. Then, settle in for a special screening of Clue (1985) to celebrate its 40^th anniversary.  

Your ticket also includes entry to Harvest Nights presented by Everwise Credit Union, starting at 9 PM. 

The night unfolds in three thrilling acts: 
Act I: Investigation | IMA Galleries | 6–7:15 PM 
Act II: A screening of Clue (1985) | The Tobias Theater | 7:30 PM 
Act III: Harvest Nights presented by Everwise Credit Union| The Garden | 9 PM 

Clue (1985)  

Based on the classic board game, Clue (1985) is a fast-paced murder mystery comedy that begins with six strangers invited to a mysterious mansion. As secrets unravel and bodies begin to drop, the guests must work together (and against each other) to uncover the killer among them. Packed with witty dialogue, over-the-top characters, and multiple surprise endings, Clue is a cult classic that turns murder into a madcap, hilarious whodunit. 

Directed by Jonathan Lynn, 97 minutes, PG.
