Question 2 of 10
2. "Oh yes," He waved his cigarette holder negligently. "Even a motion picture of the two of you in that Bayside Motel. A camera was behind the mirror. But pictures are hardly the same, are they?" Hint


Question 3 of 10
3. "I got up and went in. The kid was dead on his back. Just as white as flour except for where the blood had...had sunk. Back of the legs, and the head, the a-the buttocks. His eyes were open. That was the worst, you know. Wide open and glassy, like the eyes you see on a moosehead some guy put over his mantel." Hint


Question 4 of 10
4. "Blood relation," she said darkly. "The Mark of the Beast was on him, although he walked in the clothes of the Lamb. And on the night of October 31, 1789, Philip Boone disapeared....and the entire populace of that damned village with him." Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. "No, Mr. Morrison. You're the one who doesn't understand. You don't have any choice. When I told you the treatment had already begun, I was speaking the literal truth. I would have thought you'd tipped to that by now." Hint


Question 6 of 10

A hundred times a day I find myself standing in front of some perfectly familiar object-a spatula, a picture, even a can of beans-with no idea how I got there, holding my hands out, showing it to them, seeing it as they do, as an obscenity, something twisted and grotesque." Hint


Question 8 of 10
8. "Dear Larry,

I've been thinking about it a lot lately...and what I've decided is that it would have been better for me if the last rung had broke before you could put the hay down.

Yours,
Kitty"
Hint


Question 9 of 10

10. "Maybe it's just Hong Kong flu. Susie had Hong Kong flu. She wanted a Bible." Hint

Answer: The Ledge

Cressner says this to his victim in "The Ledge". He makes him walk around the pent house, on a ledge about 12 inches wide. Very good story, even made into part of the movie "Cat's Eye".
3. "I got up and went in. The kid was dead on his back. Just as white as flour except for where the blood had...had sunk. Back of the legs, and the head, the a-the buttocks. His eyes were open.

Billings says this to Dr. Harper in his office. He is telling him about how his children were murdered, and how he wished they would put him in prison, so he could see into all the cells. There are no boogeymen where there isn't anywhere for them to hide. Like in a prison cell.

6. "We're going to clean the whole basement level. Nobody's touched it for twelve years. Helluva mess. We're going to use hoses."

Warwick says this to Hall, regarding the Fourth of July lay off week. He wants Hall to put in some overtime. It didn't seem that big a deal, until Hall actually met the five foot rats.
7. "They used me to move him." I said dully. "They're getting the upper hand, Richard. They're forcing their doorway open, a little at a time. A hundred times a day I find myself standing in front of some perfectly familiar object-a spatula, a picture, even a can of beans-with no idea how I got there, holding my hands out, showing it to them, seeing it as they do, as an obscenity, something twisted and grotesque."

Answer: I Am The Doorway

Arthur says this to Richard, before showing him the little eyes forming on his fingertips. He brought back something from space, and now it was killing people. Opening the doorway, and using him as the body to do so.
8. "Dear Larry, I've been thinking about it a lot lately...and what I've decided is that it would have been better for me if the last rung had broke before you could put the hay down. Yours, Kitty"

Answer: Night Surf
