88 free 13 Reasons Why trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
This 13 Reasons Why trivia quiz covers all four seasons of the Netflix series and the Jay Asher novel that started it. It asks about the thirteen tapes and the people on them, Clay Jensen and Hannah Baker, the students of Liberty High and the town of Crestmont, and how the story moved on through the trial, the death of Bryce Walker and the final graduation season narrated in part by newcomer Ani Achola. Behind the scenes there are questions on Brian Yorkey, the Pulitzer-winning writer who developed the show, Selena Gomez's role as executive producer, the Northern California towns where it was filmed, the Yazoo song Gomez covered for the soundtrack, and the awards and warnings that followed. Cast questions cover Katherine Langford, Dylan Minnette and his band Wallows, and where the actors went next. Easy questions ask which streaming service made it; the hard end wants release dates, directors and the book's publishing history. Every answer was checked against Wikipedia's articles on the series, the novel and the cast, and each question shows its source once you have answered.
