Stephen King Trivia Quiz! (Please see first post)

[HoopyFrood]

Yes, I am blatantly stealing this idea from other author sections...and I'm proud of it!

So, as the title suggests, this is a Stephen King Trivia Quiz, a nice little thread to test the knowledge of King fans and followers.

As usual with these quizzes, a person will submit a question, someone will answer, who will please wait until the answer is confirmed and then submit a question of their own. And so on and so forth!

I think that perhaps we should just stick with King's novels, at least at first, as then people who perhaps aren't devout fans but have read some of his books will be able to join in.

- So no short stories or his books about his craft.
- But the Richard Bachman books are fine.
- And yes, I think the novellas like in Different Seasons or Four Past Midnight are fine too.

I think it will be interesting if people try to answer the questions without immediately skimming through the books, but of course for really tough questions I think it'll be necessary!
And all that is left to say is enjoy, people!



Oh, and of course, a question. Start off with quite an easy one: In The Eyes of the Dragon, what are the two things that Peter asks to be provided with in his prison?

[Nesacat]

His mother's dollhouse and a cloth napkin for every meal.

[HoopyFrood]

That is correct, Nesa! Your go!

[Nesacat]

Thanks Hoopy...

Who was the first person in the Lot to become a vampire?

[Connavar]

Danny Glick was the first one!


Thanks for the question Nessie thats the only SK book i have read so far so hehe

[Nesacat]

Indeed he was and he's a fuschia sugar skull for you. Your go Connavar.

Salem's Lot is one of my favourite King's. Maybe this thread will set you to reading more of his work.

[Connavar]

What is the name of Johnny's favorit Doctor in The Dead Zone ?



Im reading my second SK book right now The Dead Zone Right now so

[HoopyFrood]

Well, quite some time has passed now and no one has answered. Anyone know it? If not, perhaps you could ask another question, CR?

[Connavar]

Man what kind of SK fans are you guys i thought that was an easy question


Okay here goes an easy one.

Whats the name of the guy that Roland hated for what he did to Roland's mom in The Gunslinger?


Thats even easier since so many of you like DT specially you Hoopy.

[HoopyFrood]

(I've never read the Dead Zone, it's one of the few King books that I haven't perused )

Anyway...Hmm, I think this is the guy (been a long time since I read The Gunslinger...)

Marten or, as he's otherwise known, Walter. Or even the man in black.

[Nesacat]

Connavar ... Dr Sam Weizak .... go ahead with the next question.

Just thought I'd answer this one, especially since Connavar is exploring the King books.

[HoopyFrood]

Oh, well, seeing as that was the earlier question, then by all means you can have the next go, Nesa! (Providing that the answer is right, of course )

[Nesacat]

Eh no no Hoopy. Was just wanting to keep Connavar reading. Am not good at keeping track of these quizzes especially from work. It's all wonky now.

[Connavar]

I wanna answer a question too so let one of you post a question this time.



I have several SK books that i wanna read but Conn Iggulden Emperor series has got me by my....well you know

[HoopyFrood]

Well, if my answer to your question about The Gunslinger is correct, I'd be more than happy to post a question of my own
