Tarot by the Pines | Tarot Murder Mystery: Halloween Edition W/ Trick Or Treat Tarot @TarotbythePines | Uploaded October 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
I found this activity last year and did a video on it. I had so much fun - I wanted to bring it back by using one of the greatest Halloween decks - Trick or Treat Tarot. Grab a tarot deck and try this activity - I promise you that it's fun! Let me know in the comments who was YOUR victim, killer, and murder weapon.
1. Separate your tarot deck into four sets of court cards, majors (with Death set aside), minors, and a separate pile with the aces.
2. Shuffle and turn over the top Major Arcana to determine who has been killed.
3. Shuffle and turn over the top Ace card to determine the manor of killing (Ace of Cups = poison, Ace of Swords = stabbed, Ace of Wands = Shot or Ace of Pentacles = Hit over the head with a heavy/blunt object)
4. Whatever suit the weapon is from, those four court cards are your suspects. Put them in a lineup for questioning!
5. Turn over a minor arcana for each suspect to see if you can determine a motive. Do this more than once until you are confident in who you suspect is the killer.
6. Shuffle the death card back into the remaining major arcana cards, and turn them over on top of your suspects one by one until the death card comes up. Wherever the death card lands - THAT is the true killer.
