It is 'Zombies in the Snow'. At the end of the book, Snicket sends his editor a copy of this film.

2. Which of these is not a name of one of the books in "The Series of Unfortunate Events"?

"The Miserable Mill" is book number four in the series, "The End" is book number 13, and "Chapter Fourteen" is a secret mini-book inside "The End".

Answer: A mechanical monster

A mechanical monster is described on the blurb of "The Grim Grotto".

4. Who is the illustrator of these books? (UK version, 2004-2007)

Answer: Brett Helquist

Lemony Snicket is the author of the franchise, Kit Snicket is his sister, and Britt is just a deliberate wrong spelling of Brett.

5. Who/what is Phil?

Answer: An optimist

Phil always looks on the bright side of life, making him an optimist. A pessimist is completely the opposite of an optimist, and neither Count Olaf or the hook-handed man has ever disguised themselves as Phil.

Triangle-Eyes is the false name given to Fiona by Esme, Captain Widdershins is Fiona's father and Sunny is the cook.
