Leicester – Strange Britain’s Unsolved – True Crime Night

UNSOLVED: Back for Summer 2026

Hot nights. Cold cases.

Join storyteller Adrian Finney for a brand-new collection of unsolved murders, baffling investigations, and mysteries that have refused to stay buried. No repeats, no recycled stories, and no dusty old case files dragged out for another airing. Every case in this summer edition is completely new.

These are the crimes that still linger in the shadows of British history. Cases where justice never arrived. Investigations that left more questions than answers. Murders that remain stubbornly, infuriatingly, unsolved.

Along the way you’ll encounter suspects who seemed certain to be guilty, detectives chasing impossible leads, official explanations that make less sense the more you think about them, and twists so unexpected they sound like something from a crime novelist’s fever dream.

But this isn’t a night of doom and gloom.

If you’ve been to a Strange Britain event before, you’ll know that history’s darkest stories are often accompanied by its strangest moments. Expect Adrian’s trademark blend of storytelling, historical oddities, and razor-dry humour as he guides you through some of the most perplexing crimes ever committed.

There’s comedy amidst the crime.

Plus, as a special moment, there will also be a city-exclusive crime quiz, giving you the chance to put your detective skills to the test. Will you solve the mystery? Or become the kind of witness detectives quietly complain about for decades afterwards?

It’s a night of history, mystery, and macabre mischief. A chance to step into a world of unanswered questions and impossible puzzles, where every theory seems plausible until the next one comes along.

Because while summer may be the season of holidays and happy endings, some stories never reach a conclusion.

And that’s where things get strange…

Adrian’s previous tours have sold out events all across the country so you do not want to miss Strange Britain’s Unsolved.
