Where he came from


did they ever explain ghost writer's origins?

reply

Not onscreen, but according to one of the producers, he was a runaway slave who taught other slaves how to read, and was then killed by slave catchers.

i kind of thought about that in the episode where he talked about remembering being chased by dogs. since reading and writing is his power, i just guessed it had something to do with slavery and being forbidden literacy. How did that show end anyway? Did Ghost writer go to heaven? I know they made a new ghostwriter mystery show, so did he just find some new kids to hang with? I wonder when they'll reboot that show now that it's been twenty years lol
