Hello all! It's time for more halloween hijinks!

It's halloween on Saturday, so why not test your knowledge of all things spooky by doing our halloween quiz?

If you want to test your mettle, you can submit your answers by PMing me as many as you can manage and we'll see who is truly spooktacular!
Can you win a UESPoint? I will have to ask the creature that guards them...

Please don't post any of the answers in this thread.

Let the quiz commence!
_____________________________________________________

1. Who was created first - Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster or Mr Hyde/Dr Jekyll?
2. What are these four specific people collectively known as?
3. What colour is Michael Jackson's outfit in the Thriller video?
4. What country is Transylvania in?
5. What should you fear a few days after a waxing gibbous?
6. Who famously starred as a mummy in 1932?
7. Who created the Addams family?
8. What country is it believed that the practice of making Jack-o-lanterns for halloween originated?
9. Solve this anagram to make something supernatural: ruaobajodi
10. What creature might be heard when death is near?

I know #2 has Jack Bauer and Bill S. Preston Esquire in it. I can't think of the band name, though. >_>

I thought people would be googling the answers, so Number 9 is there as a 'mwahaha, you can't google me' question, but so far I think all the entries have been from folks' own brains, which in this cyber age is nice!

I just got #9 after looking at it for about 5 seconds. But I would have to Google the rest aside from 3 and 4, so I'm not going to steal someone's thunder who actually knows these. (Could I partner up with somebody where you give them 9/10 of a UESPoint and me 1/10? ;P )

The Quiz is over, and the winner is..... M.C. Marcellus, with a super-smashing 9 out of 10! Wow wee! (And your answers were impressively thorough, M.C.)
Well done to you - you get the UESPoint for being the Quiz Master!

Thanks to everyone who entered!

Here are all the answers:
