Death at the Silos: An Electrifying Murder Mystery Dinner

Step back into 1896 where innovation is booming, tensions are rising, and one shocking murder changes everything.

After selling out every show last year, Death at the Silos is back! This immersive experience transforms Buffalo RiverWorks into a living, breathing crime scene where you are part of the investigation.

Nikola Tesla is dazzling Buffalo with revolutionary ideas and dangerous new technology. But when a reform-minded mayor is mysteriously killed, suspicion spreads like wildfire.

Was it Tesla himself?
A corrupt Irish cop lurking in the shadows?
A tipsy boat captain with something to hide?
Or the powerful madame running Buffalo’s most notorious house of ill repute?

Your mission: explore the historic silos, interrogate suspects, uncover clues and decide who done it.
