We just got back from the Seattle Web Fest where we had an amazing time! A lot of you from the PNW came out to say hello and see our screening, which was awesome, and Poe Party ended up taking home more awards than any other show at the festival! Congrats to Joe Stribling for our Best Editing award, Sean and Sinead for Best Writing, and the whole Poe Party cast and crew (and fans!) for our Audience Choice. We had a wonderful time at the fest and exploring Seattle. Thanks for making it so special!
I’d love a followup short where she’s back home after the party decompressing with a glass of wine. Then I realized that would be difficult. Then I realized no, that complicating circumstance would make it even *cooler*.
Then I wondered, what if she’s been that way the whole time? Maybe the others at the party are always overlooking her because she’s only intermittently visible. Her Guide to Spending the Holidays Alone takes on new meaning.
Great news! The feature-length cut of Poe Party and almost all of the Behind The Scenes content made for Kickstarter backers is now available to the public via a digital download on VHX! Whether you’ve been dying to take a peek at the bonus features or want to have Poe Party available to view from start to finish without interruption, we’ve got you covered!
We’re offering three different packages for rent or purchase:
– Edgar Allan Poe’s Murder Mystery Dinner Party: The Complete Series – our feature-length cut of the show
– Edgar Allan Poe’s Murder Mystery Dinner Party: Bonus Content – this package boasts around five hours of bonus content, including:
2 feature length commentaries with cast and crew
Camera test
Blooper Reel
Six exclusive behind the scenes features: Writing Poe Party; Designing Poe Party; The Guest List: Meet the Cast of Poe Party; Inviting You to Set: Meet the Crew of Poe Party; How to Die: Fight Choreography, Deaths, & Special Effects; and the one we’ve released on YouTube (above)–From Action to Cut: Filming Poe Party
– Edgar Allan Poe’s Murder Mystery Dinner Party: Deluxe Edition – this package includes both of the previous packages and saves you $5!
We’ve put a lot of work into all these bonus features and wanted a way to share them with others who might not have found us until after our Kickstarter. We hope this satiates your BTS cravings and we are so excited to finally be able to offer you the feature length cut of the show as well!
Hey all! We worked super hard on all of these BTS features and we wanted to find a way to share them with more than just Kickstarter backers. I, for one, have been editing them pretty non-stop for about the past six weeks. And there’s about an hour and forty minutes of them, total, which is a whole ‘nother Poe Party’s worth! Plus two commentaries and a couple other things.
We also wanted a way to give you the feature-length cut of the show so you can watch it without interruptions and without the title sequence eleven times. We really hope you enjoy the download packages we’ve made available! A DVD just hasn’t been logistically feasible for us yet, but we hope this is a good solution.

Friends! We are so excited to announce that Edgar Allan Poe’s Murder Mystery Dinner Party will be making its US festival debut at the Seattle Web Fest on March 11, 2017!
We’re honored to be among this year’s official selections and we will keep you updated about whether or not we’ll be attending in person. Either way, if you’re in the PNW, we hope you’ll don your dinner party finest and come support Poe Party at the fest!
