Ghostwriter is a children’s mystery television series created by Liz Nealon and produced by Children’s Television Workshop (now known as Sesame Workshop) and BBC Television.

The series revolves around a multiethnic group of friends from Brooklyn who solve neighborhood crimes and mysteries as a team of youth detectives with the help of a ghost named Ghostwriter. Ghostwriter can communicate with children only by manipulating whatever text and letters he can find and using them to form words and sentences.

    Oh ho ho! This was my jam! It was also one of the few things I was allowed to watch at my grandmother’s section of the house, as we had no tv growing up.

    Except we did, as my grandmother had an addition on the house, so we just…walked into there and watched tv.

    There were rules though, mother vetted the shows, and this was one of them. And one of the few I liked! It was exciting.

    I know I watched a lot of this as a kid, but I don’t remember any of it except for some cool effects with text spelling out something. That part was always exciting.
