Type: 1920s theme? Some kind of memoryloss, "oh we're all in the 1920s and MURDER" and also slowly remember we are not, in fact, from that time period
How many weeks would this work best: I'd say 3 weeks!
Possible NPC host?: Consider: Phryne Fisher, whom I think you'd love if you haven't yet met her.
Any possible triggers?: Alcohol/drugs, maybe?
Any existing lore to pull from?: Ehh, beyond the usual 1920's stuff, I don't think so?
Other: listen i love noir/1920s shit i'm ngl that's the sole motivation for this, i think it's a brilliant setting and it'd work well for a murdergame

[superhungry]

Type: Steampunk?? please
How many weeks would this work best: 1 week? Maybe 2. Or 3 depending on how Involved you want it to be, idk
Possible NPC host?: make craftly wear this or if you went the "school for assassination" bit a headmaster/headmistress
Any possible triggers?: ...idk.
Any existing lore to pull from?: Just general steampunk stuff I think? ACTUALLY A PATRON JUST CAME UP AND RETURNED A COPY OF THIS AND IT REMINDED ME: inspired by the Finishing School series/the Parasol Protectorate series. Steampunk murder with vampires and werewolves what's not to love
Concerns?: just give me an opportunity to kill someone with clockwork gears ok
