-Halloween for the Clue Crew-

Hi! I feel like I did this last year but if anyone would wanna join me, I wanna play as many spooky Nancy Drew games as I can in October. Thing is I feel like it’ll take longer than I plan, so I might go into November. 

The Game Lineup:

The Haunting of Castle Malloy 

The Captive Curse

Ghost of Thornton Hall

Curse of Blackmoor Manor

Message in a Haunted Mansion

Shadow at the Water’s Edge

Legend of the Crystal Skull

Novemeber Bonus Game: Warnings at Waverly Academy

alternatively,

Bake or create something relative to Nancy Drew for Halloween! I know Herinteractive always have a pumpkin carving contest, but we could also bake or show off our costumes too.

ALSO!!! All artists, meme makers, and aesthetic artists- 

I wanna do kind of a game-ND-inspired Inktober of our own? I’m gonna work on this idea more but if you guys have ideas, let me know! I think also like fanfic writing can be involved in some way too. 

Have a good day everyone and let me know your thoughts if you have any!!

What other generally accepted headcanons are there for the ND games? The big one that comes to mind is Charlotte finding out that Clara was a product of incest.

More theories that may not be acknowledged in canon but are logical with a little conjecture:

SSH: the villain of scarlet hand murdered an elderly couple to get the Pacal carving back on the market. In Joanna’s office within the provenance document folder, there’s a letter that says the previous owners of the carving, an elderly couple in Connecticut, died of heat stroke due to their air conditioner breaking down in the middle of a heatwave. The culprit being connected to the art world knew who had the Pacal piece and knew the owners would be unlikely to survive if their cooling system was sabotaged.

DOG: no one poisoned Sally’s well. Arsenic is a byproduct of gold (and other ores). 600 pounds of gold bullion was hidden in a vault at the bottom of the cabin’s well for decades, so that’s why the water’s arsenic levels were toxic.

HAU: Brendan Malloy’s exploded lab in the castle was a fake one. The real lab is in the bunker below the bog. A diary in the game says Brendan gives tours to the locals in his “false” lab to put people at ease while he continued his real experiments on rocket science in the bunker. If there was nothing real about the castle lab, then how could it be dangerous enough to blow up and kill Brendan and Caitlin? Unless it was sabotaged or Brendan’s status as a double-agent was discovered and the castle was bombed by the Allies or Axis.

SAW/SPY: Savannah’s assistant, Logan Mitchell, is a spy for Cathedral. 

@knock-off-krolmeister It’s on Nancy’s profile in the Cathedral archives! Presumably L.M. is Logan and family S. is the Shimizu family.

DAN: Sonny and Minette were dating. The reason she broke up with Dieter (a question she never answers during the game) was to be with him. And after a night out drinking, Sonny convinced her to get an alien face tattoo. Minette was so mortified she broke up with him!

CUR: Jane killed her guinea pig with her uncle’s hair growth medicine :( If you open the well before filling it up, you can find a letter to Jane from her uncle. He says he hopes his hair growth medicine helps her guinea pig as much as it helped him. Jane applied it to her guinea pig not knowing it would be harmful unfortunately killed it :(

RAN: The culprit died at the end of Ransom of the Seven Ships. During Nancy’s wrap-up, she mentions that police found the culprit’s boat, but the culprit was nowhere to be seen. Nancy theorizes that they might have caught a ride from one of their criminal buddies, or that they might have fallen overboard. One of the trivia questions at the end might be hinting as to what became of them. The question asks what the culprit didn’t have at their campsite, and the correct answer is “a life jacket”. Some people believe this was HeR’s way of hinting that they did, in fact, fall overboard, and because they had no life jacket, ultimately drowned in the ocean.

CUR (again): Hugh was cheating on Linda. After a few days pass in the game, Nancy can find a postcard from Jane’s mom, Renee, stating that she’s in Rome. Hugh is also in Rome during the game. If Nancy calls and asks Hugh if he knows Renee is in Rome, he brushes it off. We also hear a phone conversation between Linda and Hugh at the beginning of the game. He tells Linda what she’s experiencing is all in her head, which is definitely not something a genuinely concerned husband would say to his sick wife. If he doesn’t truly love Linda, what’s to stop him from having an affair with his ex-wife?

CAR: I’m convinced that the zebra on the carousel is where Glory used to be. We hear so much about the love Kessler put into carving his horses and painting unique names on each one’s bridle. Plus he always used his trademark black rose somewhere in the design. The zebra has none of these things. It doesn’t have a saddle, let alone a bridle with a name of its own, and no black rose - therefore it’s not a Kessler creation.

Hey guys do me a favor, badly describe a ND character without saying their name.

If I had to describe the Nancy Drew game series as if it were a TV show, it would be like this:

Secrets Can Kill (OG): The animated short that runs on another network. The foundation is there, but it's a foreign entity compared to the main series.

Stay Tuned For Danger: The official pilot episode. It's very similar to the main series, but some elements from the animated short still linger.

Games 3 - 9: Season 1 (the episodic comedy season)

Games 10 - 15: Season 2 (hints of a bigger plot are sprinkled in)

Games 16 - 24: Season 3 (the plot has arrives and the show is great)

Games 27 - 32: Season 4 (we concluded the plot last season, but the network forced us to renew for another, so we don't know what to do aside from some falling action and conclusion episodes)

Midnight in Salem: The cash-grabby reboot, written by a different person, that no one asked for.

#3: message in a haunted mansion

The Curse of Blackmoor Manor

[Part 1 of 3]
