Call my sister! She’s good at stuff like this. Plus, she likes cocoa, AND, she passed away 10 years ago so she knows all the ghost words, too.

No!! The cocoa!

No wait, the top is still on! Maybe it’s okay.

Wait a minute is yeet and pog ghost words? Did some person see a ghost and the ghost said poggers and yeet? I mean this words have no origin and just popped up surprisingly in meme culture

I’m disappointed that Will didn’t sign this one.

I love the head spins from all 3 of them in the 5th panel.

Oh yes, the good old classic ‘snap’ sound goes well with any mystery. Shhht! I think I heard something… SNAP! (0-0 )

It’s Bigfoot.

This little town is incredibly full of mysteries and myths.

Bunny!

Never Leave the couch… Apocalypse Spud…

Is this a continuation of yesterday’s cartoon?

The professor should have a pet snake instead, then he could be Monty and Python..!

Challenging hikers to a game of Scrabble! Mr. Henry, I do love how your mind works!

Ah, an Eminent Professor of English, reminiscent of the Great History of Magic Instructor of Hogwarts, Professor Binns. Who still, as a ghost, continues his instructions to a new generation of young wizards. Spud, never forego an opportunity for a couch over an adventure, especially when hot chocolate is involved……..

since when does wallace own a dictionary

Spud, Spud, Spud. He knows perfectly well what (not) to do, and yet there he is.

Is it Spud meaning potato or is there some acronym that eludes me?

Over at Monty today there’s a Yeti

What’s a ‘ghost word’? Poltergeist? Apparition? Casper?

As always, I love the artwork!

Two guys on a moonlit stroll together would mean something else if they were both older….hint of things to come?

Apocalypse Spud? “Never leave the couch! Never leave the couch! I gotta remember! Never leave the couch! Goodbye Amelia! Goodbyeeeee!”

Hope you boys have been paying attention in your English class…

New legends are the best legends.

young dude, such perfect expressions on these fellas

And a theasaurus :D

Love the little bird telling the owl to shhh

I always have thought that all tides on the earth are basically lunar tides. The odd tides are spring tides and neap tides. A spring tide occurs at the full moon and the new moon, when the effect of the sun (the solar tide) enhances the lunar tide, because the earth, moon and sun are lined up in pretty much a straight line and the sun and moon are “pulling” in a coordinated way. Neap tides occur when the sun and moon and earth form a right angle (the earth being at the “corner” of the angle); the sun pulls “sideways” from the earth and detracts from the lunar tide’s pull.

the word dog doesn’t bite … but ghost words MIGHT

I consider myself capable of meeting the Scrabble challenge; I have dictionaries in several languages. No, wait, no dictionary of Ghostese. Darn.
