Halloween Trivia: how to play

Halloween Trivia is a free Halloween quiz game online, hosted by Bubbles, a happy cauldron who bubbles when it laughs. Answer friendly Halloween trivia questions about pumpkins and jack-o'-lanterns, costumes, candy, bats, owls and black cats, the moon and the night sky, autumn, and where Halloween traditions come from. Pick one of four answers before the clock runs out and travel from the Pumpkin Patch to the Star Castle. The Halloween quiz questions start easy and get trickier level by level, and everyone gets the same questions each day.

How to play

Read the Halloween trivia question and tap the right answer of the four. On a computer the number keys 1 to 4 pick an answer too.
Each level needs a set number of right answers before its clock runs out. The clock waits while an answer is shown.
A wrong answer costs one of your three hearts, and the right answer lights up in green so you learn it. If the clock runs out you lose a heart too, and the clock starts again.
Every right answer lights a pumpkin on the trail at the top, and Bubbles bubbles up. Some answers come with a short fun fact.
Right answers in a row build a streak: each one scores more, up to ten times.
Three stars per level: clear it, clear it without losing a heart, and clear it under the target time.

The five levels

Pumpkin Patch: easy Halloween trivia: 6 right answers in 60 seconds
Candy Lane: sweets, costumes and more: 7 right in 70 seconds
Owl Woods: bats, owls, black cats and where Halloween began: 8 right in 80 seconds
Moon Hill: the Moon, the stars and autumn: 8 right in 80 seconds

Clear Star Castle and the five levels loop with new questions, two more right answers needed per level each lap (up to four more) and 15% less time on the clock each lap. You have three hearts for the whole run, and the game is the same for everyone each day, so you can compare scores. Press M to turn the sound off or on.

Not sure? Rule out the silly answers first, then pick from what's left.
Read the fun facts: the same questions come back on other days.
Missed one? The right answer is shown in green. The questions stay the same all day, so the next try goes better.
