Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which lighthouse was trapped under a dome from outer space in the TV show 'Stephen King's Under the Dome' that ran on CBS from 2011-2014?

Answer: Oak Island Lighthouse

The show was filmed in Wilmington and Oak Island, NC. The lighthouse can be seen in the background in some scenes that take place by the river. This is not the same Oak Island featured in the reality show, 'The Curse of Oak Island.'
2. This lighthouse shows up in several episodes of CSI Miami, as well as a couple commercials. What is its name?

Answer: Cape Florida Lighthouse

The Cape Florida Lighthouse is in lots of different things. It even turns up in my first movie lighthouse quiz. But when it shows up in CSI Miami, there is usually a dead body nearby, followed with a dry joke from Horatio Crane, followed by "YEEEAAAAHHHHH!"
3. In the 2013 SyFy disaster clunker movie 'Stonados', this lighthouse stood at Boston Harbor where the keeper was monitoring the waterspouts that were flinging boulders. It starred a bunch of C-List actors and bad CGI. It also gets obliterated in the movie. Which lighthouse is it?

Answer: Fisgard Lighthouse

While the lighthouse is in Esquimalt Harbour in Colwood, British Columbia, where the movie was filmed, the story takes place in Boston. I guess SyFy isn't too concerned with geographical accuracy.
4. Which lighthouse is in 'The Perfect Storm' with Mark Wahlberg?

Answer: Eastern Point Lighthouse

It appears a couple times in the movie in backgrounds. At least they filmed in the correct location unlike another movie mentioned in this quiz. It was filmed in Glouster, Massachusetts.
5. Another Stephen King entry, which lighthouse is in the movie 'Needful Things'?

Answer: Point Atkinson Lighthouse

I could probably do a quiz all about Stephen King movie lighthouses. Point Atkinson appears in the background several times. This lighthouse is in West Vancouver, Canada.
6. Which lighthouse appears in the 1980 movie 'Somewhere in Time' starring Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour.

Answer: Round Island Lighthouse

Round Island is in Michigan. This is one of the most intriguing lighthouses in my opinion. It has such a unique look that is even kind of menacing. Reeve and Seymour have a couple shots together with the lighthouse in the background.
7. Which lighthouse is seen in the 1980 John Carpenter horror classic 'The Fog.'

Answer: Point Reyes Lighthouse

Interestingly enough, this lighthouse was specifically built because of fog. That area of northern California is infamous for it.
8. Which US lighthouse appears in the creepy 2010 Leonardo DiCaprio movie, 'Shutter Island'?

Answer: It is not a real lighthouse

As creepy and real looking as that lighthouse was, it wasn't real. They built a 20 foot base, but the rest was CGI. Its a shame really, that would have been a great one to visit.
9. A lighthouse was seen in the 2002 horror film, 'The Ring'. But which one?

Answer: Yaquina Head Lighthouse

It appeared in the 7 days video, and the mother who is trying to save her daughter later finds it. It is located in Newport, Oregon.
10. A lighthouse appeared in the TV mafia series 'The Sopranos' when one of the cast had to lay low for a while out of town. Which one?

Answer: Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse

It was either Paulie or Junior. The Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse is shown as the character gets to Florida. Its located in Pompano Beach,FL.
