Talk:Carnival of Monsters (TV story)

Anagram[[edit source]]

"The Drashigs were named so by Holmes as an indirect anagram of 'dish rag'" This is wrong. It's a perfectly normal anagram of 'dish rags'. Here's an example of an indirect anagram:-

Consider the clue Unusually tough monster (5). Here, the compiler has invoked the indirect anagram: the solver is expected first to find the synonym HARDY for "tough", and then to anagram it to give the answer HYDRA, as opposed to being given the clue Unusually hardy monster (5), in which the letters to be anagrammed are provided literatim. 165.225.80.59^{talk to me} 10:33, August 12, 2016 (UTC)

Orum[[edit source]]

"Vorg repairs the eradicator and turns it on the Drashigs, but not before they eat Kalik and Orum."

Orum isn't eaten, only Kalik.165.225.76.175^{talk to me} 13:30, February 19, 2018 (UTC)
