Geocache Description:

A mystery cache with coordinates based on some classic horror and supernatural movies. 


The woods surrounding Inchgarth Reservoir are already home to "Haunting Halloween," but there's room for more creepy caches!

Please note, the cache is not hidden at the given coordinates!

Work out the coordinates from the following questions relating to classic moments from the horror and supernatural genres.  The container is hidden at these coordinates:  N57 0A.BCD  W002 0E.FGH

A = Morgan Freeman, Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow's head in a box!  Which movie?

B = Subtract the number of "Friday 13th" films released between 1980 and 2015 from the age of Regan at the time of her possession in "The Exorcist" (1973)

C = The number of student film makers who disappeared whilst filming a documentary about The Blair Witch (1999)

D = How many Oscars did the 1981 movie "American Werewolf In London" win?

E = Subtract the release year of the original Ghostbusters movie from the year in which the BBC's Ghostwatch saw Michael Parkinson being possessed by an evil spirit. (Not strictly cinema, but it's well worth watching!) (From behind the sofa)

F = The release year of this movie:  
      minus the release year of this movie:

G = Sergeant Howie recites the words to which Psalm at the end of "The Wickerman" (1973) ?  Subtract this from the amount of days passed since a virus is released in a 2002 horror film directed by Danny Boyle.

H = In the 1925 silent version of The Phantom Of The Opera, which opera box is requested by the house "ghost" ?

Answers to all questions can be found without too much digging online.  Good luck!
