These are all original theatrical shorts with one exception, that being "Wendy's Wish," an enchanting episode from the 1963 TV series "The New Casper Cartoon Show." As far as I know, this short is found only on this DVD. Other shorts from "The New Casper Cartoon Show" are found on Casper's Spookiest Tales.

Great Overview
Picked this one up to share with my young kids and was surprised to find that the cartoons included in this collection were among my favourites when I was their age. The quality of the picture and sound is great, and don't let the title fool you- Wendy only makes an appearance in a couple of the shorts. Has no bonus features at all and is rather short (which is typical of these collections), but the price was right. Minor note: the producers seem to have cut the theme song from the beginning of each short (although the credits and titles remain), instead, including it at the beginning of the playlist of 14 episodes- purists may object, but it didn't bother me- I thought it helped with the continuity of the disc. Anyway, I believe that to date this is the only pure collection out there of the classic cartoons and I'm not going to be picky- I recommend this to parents with young kids and parents with young hearts!

Where's Wendy?
This is a very good collection compared to others I have, these look great. My Grandchildren 3 & 4 love them. But I was dissapointed that it didn't have more of Wendy. Only two episodes of Wendy. The title does say Casper and Wendy's Ghostly Adventures? Casper and Wendy episodes were my favorite and I bought this thinking I would see lots of Casper with Wendy. That's the only reason I gave it 4 stars. Otherwise I highly recommend it.
