Graveyard Guess

Growing up, my Mother's family threw the best Halloween parties. They were very elaborate. We had a haunted house, haunted path, haunted talk show, and a freak show/carnival. I love parties like this and the sky is the limit when it comes to ways to entertain people. My family had that. One of the items that was featured at each of these parties was Graveyard Guess. I am not sure who thought of this, but it was a classic way to enjoy Halloween Trivia and to see who kept up on things like this.

Rules:
a. 10 headstones with clues on them, which relate to a celebrity who has died.
b. No googling or searching on the Internet for the answers.
c. Death occurred within this past year.
d. Example: Clue says "Superman's Earth Father". The answer is Glenn Ford.
e. First and Last Name gives one full point.
f. I suggest using notepad to put down your answers before you post your answers, since others will have posted theirs.

Terence is awarded 7 points as well. 2, 3, and 5 are incorrect. Morely Safer could be correct, but I am looking for one in particular that died within this past year.

Sidemoss said...

Nope. Morley Safer is still alive.

Terence said...
