Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. A mysterious videotape warns the viewer that he or she will die in how many days?

Answer: Seven

There is no reason as to why the viewer would die in a week, but "The Ring" does hint out that Samara was alive down in the well for a week. We can assume that Sadako also survived down in the well for seven days.

2. What is the certain, unspecified act that the viewer must perform to save his or her life?

Answer: Make a copy and show it to somebody

Asakawa doesn't realize why he lived and Ryuji did not towards the end of the book, but he does have a peculiar dream. He senses a presence whom he suspects is Ryuji. The presence is holding a book called "Epidemics and Man". Asakawa has a sense of intuition that the answer is on page 191, and he discovers the word "Reproduction".

3. What are the first four victims suspected of dying of?

Answer: Heart Failure

The four victims had inherited a virus from watching the tape that gives them all a heart attack one week later. Later in the series of books, this virus starts to mimic both cancer and AIDS.

4. Which room of the house did Tomoko Oishi die in?

Answer: Kitchen

Tomoko goes into the kitchen to get a drink because her house is uncomfortably hot. There is a pain in her chest. She knows that somebody is behind her, but is too terrified to look. When curiosity gets the better of her, she is history.

5. What is the name of the resort that Tomoko and her three friends stayed at?

Answer: Pacific Resorts

The question was obvious, yet tricky. Villa Log Cabin was not the name of the resort, Pacific Resorts was.

6. What is the name of the volcanic island?

Answer: Oshima

Sashikiji is the name of the south district of Oshima. Nijima and Kozushima are neighbouring islands.

7. What does the name Yoko mean?

Answer: Yo-ko - Sun child

Asakawa believes that Yoko, his daughter, is afraid of dark rooms because it is the opposite of what her name resembles.

8. What time did Asakawa finish watching the tape?

Answer: 10:04

The length of the tape varies with each retelling of the story. The length of the movie in the book is said to be somewhere around twenty minutes.

9. Who is the unfortunate person that discovered Sadako's remains while down in the well?

Answer: Asakawa

Kind of a giveaway, but Ryuji does go down the well, depending on which version you read or see.

10. Where does Asakawa head towards to at the very end of the book?

Answer: Ashikaga

Ashikaga is where Asakawa's parents live. He is putting their lives in jeopardy to save his wife and daughter.
