Calling All Ghosts
Perhaps you remember the moment in The Mystery of the Stuttering Parrot when Bob and Jupiter, together, invent the Ghost-To-Ghost hookup? As Jupiter points out, the scheme could be used for contacting people “all the way from here to the Atlantic Ocean, if necessary. That would make it a Coast-To-Coast Hookup. But such a phrase has been used in the past by the television and radio networks. I prefer to be distinctive. So we will call ours a Ghost-To-Ghost Hookup.” In the Ghost-To-Ghost Hook-up, each of the Three Investigators calls five friends and asks each of the friends to call five more friends, and asks those in turn to call five more, and so on, until as Jupiter puts it, “we get results.” Well, here are the results, so far, of the Ghost-to-Ghost Hookup which has been going on all around the world since the Internet took the place of the telephone. Greetings to all Ghosts already known to us, and please, if we don’t know you, send us information on any web site or chat room dedicated to the Three Investigators.

Last, but not least,
our friend Philip Fulmer--who melds perfectly the
distinct realms of true fandom and electronic wizardry--has
a spectacular site called THE THREE INVESTIGATORS
READERS' WEB SITE which you can find at http://www.3investigators.homestead.com. Please visit this site, where Philip has
managed to evoke the world of the three boys with
ingenuity and real passion.

If
you don’t have a web site or a chat room -- or know
of any new ones -- you could still take part in the Ghost-to-Ghost
Hookup by doing what the boys did originally. Let five of
your friends know the boys are now living, at least some
of the time, in cyberpsace. Ask your five friends to tell
five of their friends, and so on and so forth. As we all
know by now -- and as Bob said in The Mystery of the
Stuttering Parrot -- a Ghost-to-Ghost Hookup is
“pure dynamite”!
Ten of The Three Investigators books have been recently reissued. Check them out at Amazon.com.
