Here’s a riddle born from The Window That Watched-Hard Riddles
The Window That Watched
In a castle tower, a single window always appeared lit,
even though no lamp stood inside.
At night, it gleamed like an eye.
What caused the glow?
Answer:
Moonlight reflecting on a polished marble floor.
Explanation:
The window wasn’t truly lit from within. The tower’s polished marble floor acted like a mirror, catching and reflecting the moonlight with surprising intensity. From outside, that reflection looked like a steady, pale glow—giving the illusion of a lamp burning in an otherwise empty room and making the window shine like a watchful eye in the night.
