After the recent BrainBashers drone racing contest, the four contestants were congratulating each other.
Only one drone had the same race number as the position it finished in. Adrian's drone wasn't painted yellow, or blue. Andy's drone beat Avery's drone, whereas Alex's drone beat the drone with race number #1. The drone painted green (Alex's) finished second, and the drone painted blue had race number #4. The drone that had race number #3 was painted red, and beat the drone that finished third. Avery's drone had race number #1.
Can you work out whose drone finished where, its race number, and the colour it was painted?
Hint
Alex's drone finished second, so where did the red drone finish?
Answer Pos Owner # Colour
1 Adrian #3 red
2 Alex #2 green
3 Andy #4 blue
4 Avery #1 yellow
Reasoning
The four colours were: Blue, Green, Red, Yellow.
The four contestants were: Adrian, Alex, Andy, Avery.
By (4), second place was Green, and owned by Alex.

2 Alex green

By (5), Red beat third place, and since Green was second, Red must have been first (and had race number #3).
1 #3 red
2 Alex green

By (2), Adrian's drone was Red or Green, but we now know that Alex's drone was Green, so Adrian's drone was Red.
1 Adrian #3 red
2 Alex green
3

By (3), Andy beat Avery, so they were third and fourth respectively.
1 Adrian #3 red
2 Alex green
3 Andy
4 Avery
By (6), Avery's drone had race number #1.
1 Adrian #3 red
2 Alex green
3 Andy
4 Avery #1
By (1), second place must have had race number #2 (as first place had race number #3, and fourth place had race number #1).
1 Adrian #3 red
2 Alex #2 green
3 Andy
4 Avery #1
Which leaves third place with race number #4, and by (4) was Blue.
1 Adrian #3 red
2 Alex #2 green
3 Andy #4 blue
4 Avery #1
Which leaves fourth place as Yellow.
1 Adrian #3 red
2 Alex #2 green
3 Andy #4 blue
4 Avery #1 yellow
Five people were all taking a vacation in Shriekville, unfortunately, all of their vacations were cut short by a terrifying encounter with a resident ghost.
Can you determine the type of accommodation, its name, and the name of the resident ghost?
Archibald stayed at St George's, he was not frightened off by Macabre Malcolm. The public house was the home of Chilling Charlie, who frequently turned down the thermostat and then let out gruesome shrieks, chilling everyone to the bone. Lucas or Archibald's vacation was at the castle. Was Terrifying Tony the resident ghost there? Charlie went to stay with friends, this was in a bungalow, but it did not have the name Briar Hill. He was not terrified by Bloodcurdling Brian, the ghost that left bloodstained footprints behind. Billy vacationed at a place named Rosedale, which was not a hotel. Creepy Craig really did scare Gary, as he was settling down to sleep, by scraping his fingernails on the bedroom window, this was not at a hotel, and it wasn't a place named Avalon. The bed and breakfast accommodation was not High Lodge, which was also not the castle where Macabre Malcolm was resident.
