March 13 and 14 are the date for this year's Nye Beach Murder Mystery Weekend, as locals will stage a murder and visitors will investigate "who dunnit." Each year, around 100 people gather in the historic district of this coastal town, collecting clues from various businesses and asking questions of actors/suspects dressed in period garb.
This year's mystery is "Barnie in the Rubble," taking place in 1985. It centers around the murder of a Portland lawyer named Barnie, who was found in rubble at the bottom of a cliff.
