An 'incredible and compelling' murder mystery event is coming to Glasgow this Spring when The Post-Mortem Live arrives in town.
Working alongside award-winning human anatomist Sam Piri, organisers say attendees 'will get into the bowels of CSI, pathology, and forensics' to determine how victim Rachel Harris met her death.
Giving a rare public insight into a post-mortem, those taking part will actually dissect the human body to learn about the organ systems including a real kidney, stomach, intestines, lungs and heart.
Meanwhile, in a bid work out how long the body has been left for dead using forensic entomology and the study of insects attendees will pull live maggots and pupae casings from the dead body using forceps which have been specially prepared and use expert guidance to work out how old they are.
The show had a sell-out run in 2021, with Claudia Lewis of the BBC describing the experience as: "incredible and compelling", with a Surgical Lead at Cambridge University adding: "Every student should learn anatomy like this".
Describing what ticket holders will be tasked with uncovering, organisers say: "The interactive show sold out across the country in 2021 and is back with even more of a gross twist.
"Rachel Harris was last seen at around midnight on October 1 and her body was discovered on the December 18, 2021. The sequence of events leading to her demise will be unveiled in this unique live show that’s not for the faint-hearted."
The Post-Mortem Live comes to Glasgow's Merchants House on March 30 and 31.
