Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What happens to Howard in 'Autopsy Room 4' that makes people believe he is dead?

Answer: He was bitten by a snake

A snake bit Howard while he was golfing. Lucky for him someone found the snake in his golf-bag...Sorry, no comment on how the coroner found out Howard was alive. If you can't remember, you'll have to read it again. :-)
2. In 'Autopsy Room 4', what is Mike's temperature when the coroner began the autopsy?

Answer: 94.2

His temperature was 94.2. Pete then said. "Gee, that ain't too shabby. This guy could almost be alive, Katie...Dr. Arlen"
3. In 'The Man in the Black Suit,' what was the name of the column that Gary wrote for twenty years for the Castle Rock 'Call?'

Answer: 'Long Ago and Far Away'

I don't think I'll ever go fishing again...
4. Which award did Stephen King receive for 'The Man in the Black Suit'?

Answer: 'O. Henry Award'

Mr. King won the 'O. Henry' award in 1996 for the 'Best Short Story' competition.
5. In 'All That You Love Will Be Carried Away,' what was the name of the motel that Alfie Zimmer was planning to commit suicide in?

Answer: Motel 6

The First line of the story--"It was a Motel 6 on I-80 just west of Lincoln, Nebraska." I found this story very interesting. Does anyone else think it might be based on a true story?
6. In 'The Death of Jack Hamilton,' how did Jack die?

Answer: He was shot

"Little Bohemia Shootout"
7. Who are 'The Little Sisters of Eluria?'

Answer: Vampires

This is one of the many stories linked to 'The Dark Tower' series. I can't wait until Part Five is published!
8. In 'The Little Sisters of Eluria,' what is engraved on the medallion that Roland found on the dead boy?

Answer: James Loved of family. Loved of God

The boy was found in a 'Ironwood trough' with a medallion that said "James Loved of family. Loved of GOD," in italics. I believe the medallion wound up around Roland's neck after he was admitted to 'the hospital.'

10. What is the name of the cat in 'L.T.'s Theory of Pets'?

Answer: Lucy

'Lucy' is the Siamese cat that appeared in this story. I guess this proves all theories that cat people should marry cat people and dog people should marry dog people. The only exception is that you should find out which animal likes you! :-)
11. What do the 'The Road Virus Heads North' and 'Rose Madder' have in common?

Answer: A picture that changes

These stories have a 'picture that changes'. In "Rose Madder," Rose uses hers to escape, as she was a victim of domestic violence. In "The Road Virus Heads North," Richard is an author that tries to escape his...Both are great stories.
12. In 'Lunch at the Gotham Cafe,' where is the cafe located?

Answer: Fifty-third Street

The 'Gotham Cafe' is located on Fifty-third Street. "Between Madison and Park." I'd advise against eating there, especially if it's raining.

Answer: Deja vu

Carol, the main character of the story, is subject to frequent deja vu episodes.
14. In '1408,' how often do the maids 'turn' room 1408 at the Hotel Dolphin?

Answer: once a month

The room '1408' had been unoccupied since 1978; however, the hotel manager explained that "There are maids in once a month to give the place a light turn." The room has been unoccupied due to strange occurrences that have happened in that room.
15. In 'Riding the Bullet,' what did Alan think he saw written on George Staub's gravestone?

Answer: 'Fun Is Fun and Done Is Done'

Alan looked at the gravestone and saw "Fun Is Fun and Done Is Done"; however after he had a mishap he looked again and it said "Well Begun, Too Soon Done".
