Welcome, Detective

It’s the middle of a cold, November night in 1938. You’ve just been woken up by someone frantically knocking on your door. There has been a grisly murder at the newspaper building downtown, and they need your help to find the killer. Can you solve the case?

This virtual experience is based on an exhibition that opened at the Greeley History Museum in September 2018. The case features both the fictional story of Archibald Longsworth and factual information about true crimes in Weld County’s colorful history. See if you can find Archie’s notebook hidden at the crime scene to explore these true historical crimes.
