Tell me more about The Case of the Missing Bigfoot

Some of the letters, articles and objects you will get in the mail



The Case of the Missing Bigfoot is great for kids who like detective stories, kids who like to learn about undiscovered animals and kids who love to read.

An old mansion. A secret organization. A dinner party about to begin. The lights go out, there’s an upset in the dining room, an upset in the upstairs hall. The lights come on, the safe is open and the contents are gone. Who did it? Everyone at the mansion that night is a suspect, including the butler. And what about the open door? And did one of the guests really see Bigfoot headed down the front stairs?

Mailing #1: A letter from the detectives on the case. (They need your help!) A photo of the “crime scene”, a book excerpt, a dropped dinner invitation, a copy of the guest list, an unfinished speech, and an unusual photo from a local newspaper.

Mailing #2: A letter from the detectives, a case update, and everything you need to keep track of the case: a poster-sized “suspect board”, a suspect card for each guest (including fingerprints), your own notebook, a curious scrap of paper with a series of numbers on it and interview transcripts from two of the suspects.

Mailing #3: A case update, a sealed fingerprint report from the detective agency’s lab, excerpt of a book about ciphers and codes, another mysterious cipher message, interview transcripts from two more suspects, a curious fiber the butler found on the dining room carpet and a new suspect card to add to your suspect board.

Mailing #4: A case update, three interview transcripts, another strange message written in cipher and a special issue of a magazine.  

Mailing #5: A case update, a message written in cipher and two very  important photographs.

Mailing #6: A case summary, a sealed confession, and a special thank you from the owner of the mansion. She welcomes you as an honorary member of her secret organization and sends along a thank you gift: your very own cryptid hunting field kit. It includes a full-color set of collector cards and a super-cool canvas field bag to take along on your next expedition. Bon voyage, good luck, and if you discover any unknown animals be sure to tell us all about it!
