Riddle: A witch does another magic trick where a man goes into a compartment and then disappears into a puff of smoke/dust. The children check the walls and the floor of the compartment but there is no way out. How did it happen?
Answer: The witch turned the man into one of the children so when the children went into the compartment to check they didn't notice that the man was right there (also the witch is lazy so she didn't clean the compartment and that's where the dust came from) (This was worked out by my friend and my friends friend)

Riddle: A man is in a dark room where he is warm and safe from the outside, but he really wants to go outside even though he knows he might die if he goes outside. In the end he breaks down the wall and falls outside and almost dies. What was so bad inside the room?
Answer: The dark room was a shark and the man had been eaten by the shark. The shark was filled with acid and so that was the bad thing inside the shark. It was better to go outside and maybe drown than stay in the shark and be disolved into food.

Riddle: An old man lives in an old house in the woods and one day he thinks the time is going backward. He looks at the clock and it says half-past five and then he looks at it again and it says ten past five (and it keeps happening so next time he looks at it says half-past four). He gets scared and runs out of the house and meets up with an old woman and says "What day is it? Is it 11/02?" "It is 10/31," says the old woman. And so he runs around being scared until he looks up and the sun is falling backward out of the sky so he is sure that time is going the wrong way. How can this be?
Answer: The old man has a clock that is accidentally for left-handed people so it goes backwards, and he is so old that the old woman thinks he is a ghost so she thinks it is Halloween, and the old man has run around so much that he has forgotten which way is which so when the sun is going down he thinks it is going up backwards. Time is NOT wrong after all!!

Riddle: Two cats are petrolling the woods when suddenly they both start to sniff the dirt. "Someone from trees gang has been here" says the first cat (who's name is Stringleg). "No.... someone from pond gang has been here" says cat number 2. Who is right and who is lying?
Answer: They are both right! Stringleg is a clever green eye-tabby from pond gang and her other cat is from trees gang, but they don't know that they are from different gangs. They can't sniff themselves so they don't know what the gangs that they are smell like... but they can sniff each other but they don't think they can sniff each other because they think they come from the same gang! So they both think the dirt is a different cat from another gang to the gang that they are.
