Nothing bad ever happens in a castle in Scotland…right? New Pelorus Traitors Mystery

March 2026 –When a Pelorus real-life Traitors experience is underway, you’re never far from a murder in Scotland.   

In your own private castle in the Scottish Highlands, amidst grand halls and fire-lit drawing rooms, you and up to 30 friends are immersed in a game of deception and intrigue. This murder mystery is inspired by The Traitors, the psychological reality competition television series. 

Pelorus designs your story with Traitors-style missions inspired by the wild landscape, complete with a fleet of classic Land Rover Defenders. Riddles are cracked and codes deciphered as the plot unfolds over three days, overseen by an enigmatic host who helps to seed doubt and suspicion between Faithfuls and Traitors.

At the end of each day, guests gather at the Round Table to form alliances and break allegiances. At the last showdown, if only Faithfuls are left, they share the glory; if a Traitor remains, they take it all. 

A mountainous landscape with dark rocky peaks shrouded in clouds, a small stream flowing through green and rocky terrain in the foreground.
A person standing at a church window, silhouetted against bright outdoor light, wearing a long coat and boots, with hands raised to head in contemplation.
A luxurious banquet table decorated with black napkins, gold and black goblets, and tall glass candle holders with candles. The background is dimly lit with warm lighting and floral arrangements, with a framed painting on the wall.
