Step 1: Choose Your Mystery Theme

Want to write about a classic murder in a locked room, like in "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd"? Or maybe you’d like to make a psychological thriller, where the criminal and the victim are in a dangerous game of minds? Talefy lets you choose the theme, era, location, and even the style of narration. Are you interested in a legend from the perspective of a private detective in the style of Philip Marlowe or a calm observer like Dr. Watson? Just enter your prompt, and our top-notch online tool will create a detective story based on your requirements. 

Step 2: Generate Unique Detective Story Ideas

Once you’ve decided on the theme of your story, Talefy will start suggesting original detective story ideas for you. It may combine classic genre elements with unexpected twists to make your story instantly captivating. You can let Talefy surprise you completely or let it follow your prompt. Each new idea can be the beginning of a novel you’ll want to read to the end. 

Step 3: Create Your Mystery Story

Talefy turns a short plot into a full-fledged story with vivid characters, atmospheric descriptions, and tense scenes. Our detective story plot generator skillfully builds intrigue, throws up false clues, leaves small clues, and leads the story to the climax, when all the puzzles fit together into one picture. You can stay with the ready-made version or add your own touches.

Tips for Writing Engaging Detective Stories

  • Ignite readers’ suspicion. Give them several potential culprits so they can try to solve the mystery on their own.
  • Create atmospheric settings like the night streets of London, foggy marshes, or a bustling café in the heart of the city.
  • Pay attention to small details. Little hints that seem insignificant at first may later become paramount.
  • Alternate moments of tension with quieter scenes, so the reader has time to catch their breath before returning to the intrigue.
  • Don’t be afraid of twists. The best detective stories are the ones where the ending makes you want to reread the whole story.

Don’t worry if you’re writing your very first detective story. Talefy will help you combine all the main elements.
