One riddle story could be this. There was a woman who had a very strange job. She worked in a place where everything was backwards. She had to write left - handed and read from right to left. One day, she found a key that didn't seem to fit any lock in the normal world. But in her backwards world, it was the key to a very important box. What was her job? She was an archaeologist who dealt with ancient languages and artifacts where things were written and designed in a different way. So, the key was for a box with ancient writings or relics.
Well, here's a long riddle story. There was an old wizard who lived in a dark forest. He had a magical box. On the box was written a riddle: 'I'm always in front of you but can't be seen. What am I?' People from all around tried to answer. Some guessed it was the future, but that wasn't right. The real answer was 'Your future'. Because it's always in front of you in a sense, but not something that can be physically seen.
Riddle: You're in a dark maze. There are two paths. One path has a sign that says 'This way to certain doom.' The other has no sign. Obviously, the path with no sign is the way to escape because the other one clearly warns of doom.
One riddle could be: 'I'm in a room with four doors. Behind one is freedom, behind the others are monsters. The doors are red, blue, green, and black. A sign says the safe door's color is the color of the night sky without stars.' The answer is black, as the night sky without stars is black, leading to escape.
One classic scary riddle is: 'I have no feet to dance, I have no eyes to see, I have no life to live or die, but yet I do all three. What am I?' The answer is a fire. A fire can seem to 'dance', it doesn't have eyes but can 'look' menacing, and it's not alive but can start and end, causing destruction like a living thing might.
The answer to the riddle of reading at night is "Teacher".
