What am I? Riddle-Game

[Diana Lowery]

[María Andrea Fernández Sepúlveda]

Process of elimination: Diana was "so very close". but is she close in regard to keys, cell phones or glasses? Well, the ancient Chinese didn't have cell phones, nor did they have glasses (I don't think) so that leaves keys ... which also leaves DATo more stumped than ever.

@Diana Lowery was so close because it's glasses. Just a specific kind of glasses that get lost a lot.

The ancient Chinese had sunglasses ?

The first sunglasses were invented in 12th century China, made of smoky quartz. They were used by judges to hide their expressions while questioning witnesses.

Your turn!

Dracula's Castle?

Excellent guess!!!! But not the correct one.

HINT: Far less known than Dracula's castle, but is, to some extent, associated with a flying creature.

[DATo]

HINT (expansion): Actually, this place IS well known but more from an historic standpoint. Dracula's castle is included in so many movies and novels that it would be known to a greater audience.

The place which is the answer to the riddle is known to the greater public primarily as a result of one very famous novel and movie which starred several very famous actors of that period.

The Krakatoa volcano?

[DATo]

The Krakatoa volcano?

Not a volcano, but you are much closer to the answer; however, wrong part of the world.

[María Andrea Fernández Sepúlveda]

The Normandy coast?

[Diana Lowery]

Clue #3 baffles me.

[DATo]

The Normandy coast?

Not the Normandy coast but an ocean is involved in its setting.

Clue #3 baffles me.

Clue #3 - It is the sort of setting one might vacation in / at, but it is labeled as belonging to an evil entity, thus we will assume the evil entity owns it.

HINT: Consider all of the evil entities you can think of in possessive tense starting with the most evil. i.e Dracula = Dracula's ....the name is part of the answer.

[María Andrea Fernández Sepúlveda]

Devil's Mouth?

[DATo]

Devil's Mouth?

You are SO very close, and your answer fills the clues perfectly, but no, the Devil would vacation somewhere else.

HINT: The "flying creature" mentioned before is the name of the novel and the 1973 film, the setting of which is the answer to the riddle.
