DESIGN CONCEPT · THE PHYSICAL VENUE DOES NOT YET EXIST
The Vision
The Inquest is being developed as a future Art Deco supper club, cocktail lounge, retail mercantile, and immersive case venue in Northern Colorado.
The building has not been chosen. There is no opening date to announce. For now, you can explore the fictional world, examine the first case briefs, and follow the development of a place we hope you’ll want to show your friends.
The Mercantile
A small street-facing shop and check-in area: mysteries, branded items, case files, notebooks, collectibles, and pieces of the story to take home.
Explore the MercantileThe Supper Club
Premium Art Deco dining, cocktails, live jazz, and optional table cases. Food and hospitality should be exceptional in their own right; the mystery is an invitation, not an obligation.
Dunham & Dunham Investigations
The fictional agency becomes a gateway to deeper case-room experiences at the future flagship. Dark wood, frosted glass, green banker lamps, and an investigation waiting on the desk.
Case Rooms
45–75 minute investigative experiences focused on solving what happened rather than simply escaping. Evidence, deduction, and practical problem-solving take precedence over locks and countdowns.
