Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. When the gang are getting into the rust bucket of a car, Pike tells them to buckle up. They complain that there are no seat belts and Pike tells them to sue the manufacturer. Who manufactured the car?

Answer: Pike

As described in the book:

My heart's ramming against my ribs. "Buckle up" Pike calls out. "There are no seatbelts." "So, sue the manufacturer. Oh wait. That's me!" Pike's the mad mechanic who built this car from the graveyard of dead and mangled cars out by Sunset Speedway.
2. What was the name of the place that Pike set alight?

Answer: Fat Bill's

Fat Bill was under house arrest at that moment and not allowed to run his shop. He was a heavy smoker and Pike knew this. He knew the police would think he had not put out his cigarette properly and that had caused the blaze.
3. Where does the Bonechiller sting Danny?

Answer: The back of his hand

Here is the description from the book:

"In a whipping blur the tongue stabs the back of my hand with its sting, so deep it feels like it's going to come right through my palm. A jolt of pain shoots up my arm and into my chest, a hundred icy needles jabbing into my heart."
4. Danny described the night when he was attacked as what kind of nightmare?

Answer: Psychotic

Here is another quote from the book:

"Sleep. The big eraser.
Cutting off one day from the next. Making yesterday history. Giving you enough distance to shake your head and say--what was I thinking?
Last night was a really bad dream, a psychotic nightmare. Judging by my headache hammering my skull to the beat of my heart, I might even have a concussion.
My memories are broken. What's real--and what's a hallucination?"
5. Who was the first person Danny told about the attack on him?

Answer: Howie

Howie's the brainiac of the group. Danny told Howie first because he was sure that Howie could explain to him what this creature was. But even Howie could not do this.
6. What was the name of the cartoon character that Danny and his mum created?

Answer: Stinkboy

Stinkboy survived being shot, stabbed, burned, bombed, decapitated and nuked, but he still kept coming back!
7. Name the first disorder that Howie thinks he has.

Answer: Seasonal Affective Disorder

One week Howie has SAD, the next he has got pneumonia. He always has one thing or another going on. And it is always self-diagnosed.
8. What is the name of the local paper?

Answer: Examiner

The name of the paper is said when Howie begins to research about hundreds of kids who have just up and left their houses wearing nothing but pyjamas or tracksuits. None of them were ever seen again. It is said that they had gone a bit strange in the two weeks leading up to the disappearances.
9. Who was the next person in the book, after Danny, to be attacked by the Bonechiller?

Answer: Howie

Howie is stung when he and Pike are out on the frozen lake ice fishing. Danny lives on the edge of the lake and Pike comes in for a bit to find something for himself and his brother to eat. That's when they hear a scream. They both know it was Howie, so they rush out of the house and Pike finds him lying beside a giant hole in the ice. He is soaked to the skin and shivering like crazy.
10. What tattoo does Pike get in the end?

Answer: A stick of dynamite

Danny and Ash think it looks like a candle. Pike claims that it is a stick of Dynamite with the fuse lit and TNT written on it.

In the end they all get tattoos and form their own 'tribe'.
