The Case of the Missing Hippie - Can YOU Solve the Mystery?

Misty Ferryman, the town's beloved hippie, has gone missing! The carefree and barefooted local was known for his groovy attitude and love for nature. But now, his body has been discovered by the assistant harbourmaster, Stella Nine, and the local police have reason to believe it was no accident…

Chief Inspector Bo Hemian has had enough of her team's flowery attitude and has assigned the case to YOU, a top detective. Your mission? To walk the beat(nik) and solve the clues that will lead you to the culprit and any evidence linking them to the crime scene.

The Mystery of Stranraer's Castle, Harbour, and Park

Looking for a fun day out with family and friends in Stranraer? Then why not embark on this self-guided detective mystery themed Treasure Trail? As you follow the trail route, you'll solve sneaky clues set on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments to eliminate suspects and discover whodunit.

Your adventure begins on Harbour Street and takes you to the Castle of St John. From there, follow the clues along Charlotte Street, St John Street, Hanover Street, Church Street, High Street, to Agnew Park, and back to the harbour and the colourful rows of houses.
