1954, secluded New England mansion. Six people have received letters from a mysterious person with the pseudonym Mr. Boddy that invited them into the mansion on a certain date. They soon arrive and each was given a pseudonym. They are Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock, Colonel Mustard, Miss Scarlet and Professor Plum. As they arrive, they all recognize Mr. Boddy, but not each other.
Mr. Boddy reveals that he was working with each and every one of them and was proud of it. However, he is dying of terminal cancer and has no one who could inherit his wast wealth and power besides them. So he ordered his lawyer to make inheritance in a competitive manner. If any of the six guests kills him and gets away with it, he will get all his possessions. However, if somebody catches the murderer, then all the inheritance will be his and the murderer will be arrested.
Although everyone claims that they won't murder Mr. Boddy, nobody buys it. Mr. Boddy gives them all a time limit: they must murder him or discover the murderer until morning. Until then, the mansion is closed. He shows them six weapons: a candlestick, a dagger, a lead pipe, a revolver, a rope and a wrench. Mr. Boddy allows them to use any of it for murder. Then he orders them to spread around the mansion, until the clock hits midnight. When the clock hits, all they should meet at the entrance. If Mr. Boddy is alive by then, nobody will receive the inheritance.
Two hours pass, and the clock hits midnight. Everybody meets each other at the entrance. But Mr. Boddy is missing. Five minutes after, everyone knows what has happened: Mr. Boddy was murdered. And now they need to discover who has done it, where and with which murder weapon. The game has begun.
