I think my table cloth would be that banquet paper on a roll....decorated with things like outlines of bodies....fake bullet holes, blood stains etc.
Perhaps a height chart and have everyone photographed in front of it...
Maybe people could be assigned names like Col. Mustard and Mrs. Peacock....and there could be a large brass candle stick on the table....as well as a knife, a gun a wrench etc.
Yep been to a Murder Dinner....but the script for that comes with all ideas for the menu etc.
How about a cake with a hack saw blade baked in it?
Have fun!

Thanks, Lindac.
I was just in a shop the other day that sold bullet holes.
The weapons centerpiece is a great idea.
I'm not actually having the Murder Dinner. Mine is a simple Bunco Night with a little extra who-done-it thrown in for fun. Saw the idea on another site.
Now, I off to the garage to look for a wrench, some rope, and a length of pipe.

That's so funny, I just watched Clue last weekend. Love that movie. Don't forget the candlestick!
