Black dress ready? Good. These 120 Wednesday trivia questions stalk through Nevermore Academy, Jericho, the Addams family tree, Season 1's Hyde mystery, and the darker complications of Season 2.
There are major spoilers ahead for both completed seasons, so proceed only if having a mystery solved does not ruin your day. Wednesday would probably approve either way.
Why Wednesday Makes Great Trivia
Wednesday is built for trivia because nearly every character is hiding something. The series mixes Addams Family history, supernatural outcast groups, murder mysteries, psychic visions, secret societies, deadpan jokes, memorable dances, and a school where even the extracurricular activities can become dangerous.
Netflix confirms that both eight-episode seasons are now available. This quiz uses the official Netflix episode and character guides as its factual backbone, and it pairs nicely with our TV show trivia and horror trivia.
