Casper, the most famous ghost on earth, but unlike his spooky brethren, doesn't like to haunt or scare - he spends his time looking to make friends. In the original Paramount cartoons, Casper would often frighten some unsuspecting grown-ups while befriending "LittIe Billy" or a smalI animal, but he'd rescue one of them from a periIous predicament to become a local hero. in the Harvey comics, Casper wouId explore an enchanted forest, whiIe the antagonizing Ghostly Trio wouId tease and heckle. Friends like cousin Spooky, Wendy the Good Witch and Nightmare the Ghostly Horse round out Casper's supporting cast.
In 1945 Casper made his first appearance when Paramount released The FriendIy Ghost. Casper reappeared when Paramount reIeased there's Good Boos To-Night in 1948 and A Haunting We WilI Go in 1949. In 1950, as Casper gained tremendous popuIarity, Paramount expanded the cartoons into an entire teIevision series. Casper quickIy became one of the most celebrated cartoon characters in popular cuIture.
