Historic buff trivia - The Captain’s Manor Inn bed and breakfast was the first summer home built in Falmouth and E. Pierson Beebe of Boston, a director of the Androscoggin Mills in Lewiston, Maine, one of the largest cotton mills in New England, built Highfield Hall in 1878, another of the early summer homes in Falmouth.

You will experience what Highfield Hall is referring to as Musical Mayhem. In the midst of music from Robert Wyatt, a murder occurs. Who did it? The killer must be stopped and it’s up to you to find the clues. Wonderful Hors d’ouevres from the Casual Gourmet and a cash bar will complement the event.
