Nancy Drew: The Haunting of Castle Malloy - Trivia

Trivia

  • When creating the seating plan, some of the other guests are actually the names of characters from other Nancy Drew games. Jane and Linda are from Curse of Blackmoor Manor, Rose is from Message in a Haunted Mansion, Lori and John are from Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon, Heather is from Danger By Design, Taylor is from Secret of the Scarlet Hand,and Henry is from Legend of the Crystal Skull.
  • When you look through the picture of Kit and Kyler by the fireplace, the background is the Rialto Market, a place where Nancy can sell flowers in The Phantom of Venice.
  • The teddy bear by the shelf at the nursery is like the one in the general store in The Secret of the Old Clock.
  • The glass eye on the vanity in the nursery was one of the twenty-five found in Legend of the Crystal Skull.
  • The fortunes Nancy receives from the machine in the main hall make references to several other games. The first, "I see the sea in your future", is a sly hint at "Ransom of the Seven Ships", the next Nancy Drew adventure. One reads "Fight the power!", a catchphrase from The Final Scene. Another says, "What card am I looking at?", which was featured in a puzzle in The Secret of the Old Clock. Another one reads "BALDO!", a nickname of the federal agent mentioned in Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake
  • The sign inside the desk in the tower says Waverly Academy for Girls. Warnings at Waverly Academy is the twenty-first game and takes place at an all-girls school which several Nancy Drew characters attended.
  • The invitation says "Kyler Tegan Mallory of London and Matthew William Simmons of London Request your presence to witness their exchange of matrimonial vows on the first of June at one o'clock. Location is Castle Malloy, Bailor, Ireland."
  • The book Kyler is reading looks just like Marie Antionette's journal in Treasure in the Royal Tower.

When you are first talking to Kyler you hear her mention Togo (Nancy's dog) - the only reference to him since Nancy's voice on her answering machine when you call home in The Haunted Carousel. Also Nancy's wallpaper on her laptop is from Secret of the Scarlet Hand.

Famous quotes containing the word trivia:

    Pop artists deal with the lowly trivia of possessions and equipment that the present generation is lugging along with it on its safari into the future.
    —J.G. (James Graham)

    The most refined skills of color printing, the intricate techniques of wide-angle photography, provide us pictures of trivia bigger and more real than life. We forget that we see trivia and notice only that the reproduction is so good. Man fulfils his dream and by photographic magic produces a precise image of the Grand Canyon. The result is not that he adores nature or beauty the more. Instead he adores his camera—and himself.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
