READ THESE DETAILS BEFORE PURCHASING TICKETS
This ain’t bar trivia. It’s research-heavy, gritty, and competitive. Know what you’re signing up for. You’ve been warned.
IMPORTANT POLICY – ONE NIGHT PER PERSON
I host True Crime Cult the third Tuesday and Wednesday of each month at Cult Classic. You may only attend one night per case.
If you show up to both, I’ll call you out, embarrass you in front of the room, disqualify your team and ban you from all future True Crime Cult. No second chances. No excuses. Don’t test me.
This is a serious competition — but it’s still meant to be fun. Grow up and don’t ruin it for everyone.
IMPORTANT POLICY – AGE DISCLAIMER
True Crime Cult is not a family-friendly event. We talk about murder, rape, trauma — the worst parts of humanity. Because that’s what true crime is.
I use strong language, dark humor, and I don’t hold back. There will be crude jokes. There will be uncomfortable truths. If that makes you uneasy, this probably isn’t your night.
Suggested age is 16+. If someone under 18 is in the room, it’s on their adult to know what they’re walking into.
Every third Tuesday & Wednesday, the truth comes out. Some crimes get solved. Others never will. And some are still happening while the whole world watches.
Each month, J. Coursey Willis cracks open a new case: unsolved, infamous, or just too twisted to forget. Once announced, you’ve got three weeks to study up and prepare for a night of gritty, case-based trivia — for prizes, pride… and the right to talk trash for a month.
The Next True Crime Cult: The Unsolved Case of Robin Pope
One woman. One night. One island that never forgot.
March 2013 — Kent Island, Maryland.
Robin Pope vanished into the dark waters off her estranged husband’s home. Her car was still in the driveway. Her purse untouched. Her Great Dane, Bella, gone with her.
The next morning, Bella’s body washed up on the rocks.
Twenty-two days later, Robin’s surfaced in the bay.
No witnesses. No clear cause of death. No charges.
Just a trail of questions leading straight into the water.
Was it an accident? A fight gone too far? Or something colder beneath the surface?
The official story is silence. The unofficial one whispers of fear, betrayal, and secrets still rippling through the island’s tides.
This November, we reopen Kent Island’s most haunting unsolved case — the one that happened in our own backyard.
Because sometimes the scariest stories aren’t from Hollywood.
They’re homegrown.

HOW TICKETS & SEATING WORK
Tables seat 4 people. If you want the whole thing to yourself, buy all 4 seats.
Teams can combine 2 tables for a MAX of 8 players. You CANNOT have more than 8 per team.
If you plan to combine two tables, make sure you buy two of the same type that are near each other.
- Diamond-shaped tables = low tops
- Circle-shaped tables = high tops
Most teams do it like this: one person buys all the tickets (anywhere from 1 to 8), then their friends pay them back and show up together the night of. Easy.
Flying solo? Grab a single ticket — but only full-table purchases guarantee a private team.
HOUSE RULES
- No phones.
- No notes.
- No cheating.
Don’t test it. I will kick you out permanently.
Come early (not when the doors close). Grab food. Get a drink. The case starts at 6:30 PM sharp.
Produced & Hosted by J. Coursey Willis
Cold cases. Drinks and deception. Mug Shots handed out along the way.
Serious competition. Dark humor. Bring your brain or stay home.
Bloodstains fade. The story remains.
