STORMHOLT MYSTERIES · DETECTIVE GAMES TO PLAY AT HOME
Come in. The night has a story.
Beyond the rain, a lamp is still burning. Choose a book from the Stormholt library, settle at the investigation desk and follow the evidence into another life.
A free taste of the experience. No account or card needed.
THE LAMP IS LIT. YOUR TABLE IS READY.
The Stormholt Library of Mysteries
Outside, the rain brushes the windows. Inside, the shelves hold the stories Stormholt thought it had forgotten: a letter rewritten, a crossing interrupted, a bell heard twice. Every volume opens another life—and leaves a secret for you to uncover.
Gather your fellow detectives, pour something you enjoy and settle around the table. Choose the story that catches your eye. Read the opening together, compare the illustrated evidence and follow each discovery into the next clue. Bring your theories, your curiosity and a willingness to change your mind.
Your purchase includes a complete PDF casebook in your chosen language, with hints, solutions and the ending kept separate. Read on screen or print the pages; no host or outside research is needed. Everyone can investigate, and help is there when you want it.
Choose a mystery · €9.90 per caseOne purchase. One shared evening. A secret worth solving.
COLLECTION 01
Every secret starts somewhere.
Begin with a lighthouse, a glasshouse or a ferry crossing. Each mystery follows six connected discoveries through an atmospheric story, illustrated evidence and two substantial puzzles. Allow around 60–90 minutes.
THE INVESTIGATION
Six discoveries. One story that holds together.
Meet the people behind the mystery. Solve two substantial puzzles, examine two illustrated clues and follow each answer into the next question. Your final accusation must account for the evidence.
Choose your way to play
Read the PDFs on screen or print the case papers. Hints and the ending are in a separate solution book.

The Auction at Dusk

Before the evening begins
Is there anything to print or prepare?
Printing is optional. Have paper and a pencil handy. Everyone shares the evidence; no one needs to read a secret host guide.
How does my collection grow?
The club begins with the opening trio. Each successful monthly renewal adds the next collection in order. All nine currently released cases can also be bought individually. Master Cases are separate purchases.
Is email signup a paid subscription?
No. Leaving your email is free. It does not take payment or enrol you in the monthly club. Paid membership requires a separate checkout that shows its recurring terms.
