If looks could kill, children’s parties would be a bloodbath after just one round of Wink Murder. Also known as Killer, Killer, Killer or Lonely Ghost, this serial killer-based game sees one child taking the role of the murderer. Their mission? To kill as many players as possible without being identified, of course. All other players must work out who the killer is before getting iced themselves. Don’t worry - no actual weapons are involved.

The murderer simply takes out their victims with a wink across the room. The minimum number of players is four, but the spirit of the game is best captured by groups of at least six or more. What better way to teach your children about murdering psychopaths than a parlor game at a birthday party?
