A group of privates were standing in the blistering sun facing due west. Their sergeant shouted at them: Right turn! About turn! Left turn! In which direction are they now facing?
I give you a group of three. One is sitting down, and will never get up. The second eats as much as is given to him, yet is always hungry. The third goes away and never returns. What are the three things?
A man has three daughters. A second, intelligent man, asked him the ages of his daughters. The first man told him that the product of their ages (them all multiplied together,) was 36. After thinking the second man was unable to find the answer and asked for another clue. The first man replies the sum of their ages is equal to his house door number. Still the second man was unable to answer and asked for another clue. The first man told him that his youngest daughter had blue eyes, and suddenly second man gave the correct answer. What were the ages of the first man's 3 children?
Everything the 2 men say here is a clue:
3 daughters, product of their ages is 36, then he gives him an estimate that the second person knows but we do not (the house door number), when the second man needs one more piece of information, the first man tells him the youngest has blue eyes.
So to solve, you want to write down all the 3 numbers whose product is 36, then to find the last hint, knowing that there IS a youngest child...
The ages are 6, 6 and 1.
to solve, you want to write down all the 3 numbers whose product is 36.
1, 1, 36
1, 3, 12
1, 4, 9
1, 2, 18
1, 6, 6
2, 2, 9
2, 3, 6
3, 3, 4
Here's the hardest part, the fact that the doorbell clue was not enough to solve the puzzle means that if we add up each of these options, we get at least two results that are the same, and we need more information to decide which one.
These are
13: 1, 6, 6
13: 2, 2, 9
Then to find the last hint, knowing that there IS a youngest child, means the smallest child doesn't have another sibling in the same age, meaning that 2,2,9 doesn't work, and we are left with 1, 6 and 6.

A B G T
Until you find the message.
Well since you know you are not one of the cursed you can go down a tunnel yourself but you want a good answer from the rest so you split the groups in three leaving two left. Let those two go down one tunnel and the other six go down two separate tunnels as well. When you all meet back 20 minutes later either you have found the tunnel or someone else. Now look at the rule majority rules. If the group of three has 2 people saying it wasn't down that tunnel then you should know it wasn't down that tunnel and one of the liars have been spotted. Same with the other group of three as well as the group of two. Judging by the answers the groups gave you, you should go down the right tunnel and head to safety while the spirits possessing the two people should leave and all is well.

Melissa: Yesterday wasn't Sunday, tomorrow is Sunday.
Ben: The day after tomorrow is Saturday.
Adrienne: The day before yesterday was Thursday.
Susie: Tomorrow is Saturday.
