What we’re about

Welcome to The Murder Manor Society, a unique book club for enthusiasts of mystery and detective fiction! Located in the our local murder manor, the enchanting and eerie Freddo ATX, a coffee shop set within a haunted house in South Austin, our club offers more than just a reading group—it's an interactive adventure into the heart of crime literature.

In the Murder Manor Society, each meeting is an exploration into the dark and shadowy realms of criminal stories where the lines between the observer and the investigator blur. Here, it’s not just about appreciating the narrative; it's about stepping into the detective's shoes. Each session, we'll draw crime scenes, debate the credibility of clues and testimony, and piece together the jigsaw of the criminal mind. Our goal? To solve the mystery before the final pages turn. The club is perfect for those who love to challenge their intellect, enjoy the thrill of a good puzzle, and appreciate the chill of a spooky ambiance.

Join us in the Society, where every mystery is an opportunity for Austin's sharpest minds to test their deductive skills against the criminal element. Bring your passion for puzzle-solving, your eye for detail, and your love of a good story. Let's unlock the secrets of criminal literature together!
