Exorcism and the City game quiz
"The successful exorcist needs a strong grasp of religion and ancient languages -- but a quick look at place names shows that geography can be useful, too. Please join me on an exorcist's tour of the United States."

15 Points Per Correct Answer - No time limit  



1. The town of Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina has more going for it than enthusiasm about exorcisms. It was also the site of a world-changing moment in the history of innovation, even if its neighbor Kitty Hawk usually steals the credit. Which of these events happened in Kill Devil Hills?
    The launch of the first factory assembly line
    The first detonation of dynamite
    The first telephone call
    The first powered flight of a heavier-than-air craft


2. Surely, Los Angeles, California - the city of angels - would be a good source of reinforcements if an exorcism started to go south. From its beginnings as a tiny Spanish mission to its current life as a city of almost four million, there are certainly plenty of people to step in! Which of the following famous places is NOT part of the city of Los Angeles?
    Skid Row
    Hollywood
    Pasadena
    MacArthur Park


3. Experienced practitioners, bored with normal exorcisms, might add to the challenge by pursuing exorcisms on skis! There's no better place to do this than the resort town of Seven Devils, North Carolina. In what colorful mountain range, running from Pennsylvania to Georgia and famously providing the beautiful scenery in Shenandoah National Park, is Seven Devils located?
    Sierra Nevada
    Blue Ridge Mountains
    Jemez Mountains
    Green Mountains


4. This Wisconsin city of about 50,000 souls would be an auspicious place for an exorcism: its name sounds like the object on which Jesus Christ was crucified, a holy symbol for Christians. As a bonus, its name is also shared with a sport, and athleticism is always an advantage when facing a demon. What's the name of this city on the east bank of the Mississippi?
    La Crosse
    Veracruz
    El Crucifix
    Jai Alai


5. The little community of Satans Kingdom is in Northfield, just a stone's throw away from Satan's Kingdom Wildlife Management Area. The discerning exorcist, faced with a problem in such a place, should probably play it safe and head south on the Connecticut River, to Springfield or further still to Hartford. In what region is this devilish protected area?
    Deep South
    New England
    Pacific Northwest
    Southwest


6. Exorcists who enjoy hunting or fishing might like a vacation in the city of Devils Lake, named after the largest natural body of water in the state. There aren't many flights to the municipal airport here, but it's only about a two-hour drive from Grand Forks (or three from Fargo). In what state can you find this demonic destination?
    South Dakota
    North Dakota
    Idaho
    New Mexico


7. If you're anticipating a difficult exorcism, it would probably be a good idea to start in a place like Priest Point. This hamlet is located on Puget Sound in Snohomish County, less than five miles from the big Boeing factory in Everett - very convenient if you have to make a quick getaway from a vengeful demon. What state is Priest Point in?
    Alaska
    Indiana
    Maine
    Washington


8. The unincorporated town of Hell would probably not be an auspicious place to hold an exorcism, though it is nice in other ways. The Pinckney State Recreation Area is all around, with lovely camping sites; Ann Arbor, with the university and all its cultural attractions, is just 15 miles away. In what state is Hell located?
    Maine
    Michigan
    Texas
    Illinois


9. In this Wyoming city on the North Platte River, no exorcism might be necessary: after all, the city shares its name with a famous "friendly ghost" from a cartoon television show. With more than 50,000 people, it's the second most populous city in Wyoming (after the capital), and the seat of Natrona County. What city is this?
    Cheyenne
    Casper
    Laramie
    Douglas


10. Planning a lengthy exorcism? You might go to Hell's Kitchen, a historically seedy neighborhood, to find a caterer. (Or a superhero: Marvel Comics' Daredevil grew up there.) In what metropolis is Hell's Kitchen a neighborhood?
    Baltimore
    Atlanta
    Chicago
    New York City
