Welcome to the Arconia.
A two-day popup at the Prince George Ballroom will recreate the murder mystery world of the New York-set hit Hulu series “Only Murders in the Building,” complete with the historic Arconia building and the Pickle Diner where murder victim Bunny Folger spent her last day alive.
“The installation will take guests through a series of activities and hidden easter eggs, allowing you to take part in the discovery of who killed Bunny,” according to Third Arm Gallery, which will also host an art show with Bunny’s infamous Rose Cooper painting and Mabel’s (Selena Gomez) Instagram-famous mural.
Beyond the gallery set up in the Flatiron District, “Only Murders” fans can also dig through the apartments of Charles (Steve Martin) and Oliver (Martin Short), including the chatterbox parrot Mrs. Gambolini.
Hints and clues of the killer’s identity will be sprinkled through the entire installation.
The event will run from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday, allowing viewers to take their final guesses before the season 2 finale on Aug. 23.
“Only Murders in the Building,” created by Martin and John Hoffman, has kept viewers on its toes for two seasons with dramatic murders and a comedic tone heightened by Gomez’s deadpan sense of humor. The Hulu show has already been renewed for a third season.
