NYT Strands today (game #323) - the answers
The answers to today's Strands, game #323, are…
HATTER, RABBIT, CROQUET, DORMOUSE, CATERPILLAR
SPANGRAM: WONDERLAND
My rating: Easy My score: 1 hint
Anyone unfamiliar with the work of Lewis Carroll would have had a very curious experience trying to fathom today’s theme. CROQUET? CATERPILLAR?
It took me a couple of hints and the WONDERLAND Spangram before it made sense.
Alice In Wonderland is classed as a fantasy, but I always thought of it as a horror – I can handle zombies, vampires, and mutants, but the thought of a playing-card soldier chills me to the bones. I’m not alone: this children’s classic was turned into a horror film – Alice In Terrorland – a couple of years ago, although its 3% Rotten Tomatoes rating suggests that it wasn’t the greatest of ideas.
