You just never know when and how a story line is going to develop within the framework of a cartoon. I sit down to draw and I can only draw what shows up for me. This series was sparked from a comment Thor made on his Facebook fan page – Ghost Thor’s Fan Page. Thor was complaining about being “saged” – skunked out by burning sage, which is said to drive spirits out of a building. I thought about why a ghost would be forced to leave the premises. The obvious reason would be a lousy smell. Since sage has a peculiar, strong odor when burned, I felt this would be a likely reason to cause a ghost grief.

The real reason behind it, is unknown to me. I’m sure there are a gazillion psychics out there with their own theories on the subject. How would we really know? I guess I’ll have to ask the next ghost I find on an investigation.

Speaking of investigation, my team and I were supposed to check out a possible barn haunting this weekend. Alas, circumstances – some tragic, put this one on hold for now. I am amazed how many “best laid plans” that run amok due of hurricanes, deaths, and clients actually FORGETTING that we are supposed to check out their paranormal problem. That being said, we have a bunch of stuff lined up in the next couple of months. You’ll be in for some real paranormal treats!

Stay tuned! Eat those cookies, and hunt those ghosts!
