Sleuths Mystery Entertainment, which is led by Bob LeBlanc has thanked everyone who has visited the show over the years, "We loved providing Orlando with laughs for over three decades and are grateful for all of our guests who came to play with us to help solve tens of thousands of murder mysteries."


LeBlanc went on to explain the decision to close the much loved dinner show, "We wish that we could stay but as a small family-owned and operated theatre, we simply can't compete with the multi-million dollar theme parks and venues in the Orlando area."
