Thanks for such a wonderful variety to choose from!

Can the host also be one of the characters. I'd like to organise the evening, but also want to partake :)

My response:

Yes! Although I don't really recommend it with a Freeform Games murder mystery, as they are so involved. (At least, I don't recommend it for your first one...)

But if you really want to, I've written about both playing and hosting a Freeform Games murder mystery party here.
