Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the name of the head doctor in the original asylum that was the house on haunted hill?

Answer: Vannacutt

The film doesn't explain a lot about the original house, it would be better if it had, as we are not told how the five members of staff managed to escape. Also the film could have done with that little extra bit of plotline.

2. Which of the following people was not related to one of the original staff of the asylum?

Answer: Dr. Blackburn

It was never really established how Blackburn got invited, if Evelyn's guest list was shredded how did her lover get an invite?

3. Which 'Buffy' star appeared in the film in a cameo role?

Answer: James Marsters

He plays a camera-man filming a report on one of Price's new rides, which makes riders believe they are plunging to the ground in an elevator.

4. At the end of the credits, which two characters are shown, being tortured by the lunatics of the old asylum?

Answer: Evelyn and Steven

I had no idea this part of the film was there until about the fourth time I watched it. It's not really the best cut off point but the little bit of mystery, as to what is going on, sort of makes you think.

5. True or false. The 'Lock-down' on the house is controlled by a power grid in the basement.

Answer: False

The characters believe they can open the house from the basement and several of them go down there to find out. The actual pulley system, controlling the lock-down, is in the attic.

6. In what year did the original asylum burn down, killing all but five of the people inside?

Answer: 1931

You have to wonder at an asylum that have a state-of-the-art devise which can close off the entire building and yet doesn't even have an alarm to let staff know when absolutely all of the inmates have escaped.

7. What reason does Eddie give for why he could not be, in anyway to blame, for what happened at the asylum?

Answer: He was adopted

Sara was the one who, we are lead to believe, stole her invitation from her stepsister, Pritchard's father was killed by the house, and Eddie was adopted, so why is the 'evil' inside the house still out to get them?

8. What kind of weaponry did Price hide in a coffin, to distribute amongst his guests?

Answer: Guns

Apparently he has used the same set up before at a party. Sara, who originally turns down a gun, ends up shooting Price, but not killing him...

9. Which character is killed and cut up, being made into a display in the basement?

Answer: Melissa

Price finds Melissa's 'remains' in the basement. It really seems that she was tempting fate by intending to use the night to get some spooky footage on her camera, if only she'd lasted a bit longer.

10. In the beginning of the film, set in the old hospital, what is the doctor in the office doing?

Answer: Sharpening pencils

I find this opening scene a little overly gory, the rest of the film is pretty gruesome, but this bit is definitely not for the faint-hearted.
