Open Road Integrated Media Launches The Murder Chronicles

NEW YORK, Aug. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Open Road Integrated Media, a digital media company curating content for a growing consumer audience, announced today that it has launched an immersive, interactive mystery experience, The Murder Chronicles, aimed primarily at the audience of mystery and thriller fans the company has developed on Murder-Mayhem.com. The Murder Chronicles provides a monthly episodic mystery for participants to solve.

"We have an incredibly loyal community of amateur sleuths who come back to the site over and over again to enjoy the mystery and thriller stories we publish there," said CMO Mary McAveney. "Our editorial team envisioned an experience that would provide an even greater level of engagement with a monthly murder mystery subscription."

Each month subscribers are guided through a new case file containing all the clues they need to solve the mystery. Journal entries, newspaper clippings, old brochures, and letters packed with clues round out the experience.

The idea to launch The Murder Chronicles came from editor Matthew Thompson, who noted that the community that had gathered around the Murder and Mayhem site had a seemingly insatiable desire to solve mysteries. "The person who will enjoy this experience loves reading mysteries from Agatha Christie to Tana French and A.J. Finn, binge-watching thrillers from Broadchurch and Sharp Objects to Luther as well as listening to true crime and mystery podcasts," Thompson said. "The Murder Chronicles is like gaming—an immersive, interactive, sprawl-it-out-on-your-kitchen-table-and-play-it experience."
