Once Upon a Newsletter | Once Upon a December Nancy Drew Parody

[@prof.hotchkiss]

Lyrics: Hidden hints, seven keys Trademarked back one October A new game they did tease Once upon a newsletter What a cruel joke, we thought Then they confirmed, indeed 'tis not Now we're several months along Unhinged we spiral on… Friendships forged Livestreams born Solving puzzles together All since HeR brought us clues Once upon a newsletter Roo gives hints within a post Indy confirms the puzzle solves 'Ghella plays hot and cold Though non-disclosure holds (then there's Ghost!) Way back when, we recall Long before KEY existed There were thirty-three games Each a gem we all treasure Thirty-four, soon we'll play Once upon a newsletter

This video was just so amazing and such a phenomenal tribute to this community and everything that has happened over the last several months!!! So excited about this and am so thankful for this!!

[@SouthernSleuth]

I love that you were in the correct timezone for the premiere 😅

[@NancyDrewWalkthroughs]

@@SouthernSleuthI had just woken up, it was the best way to start the day!

[@thesleuthyteacher]

Absolutely stunning! What a great way to celebrate the amazing rollercoaster ride we've been on since April!! Bravo ladies!!! 💜

[@StoryRetold]

I love this! 🎉Well done Hotchkiss! An excellent tribute to the community. Lol, my fave line was the "unhinged we spiral" 😂

[@prof.hotchkiss]

I'm so glad you like it! 'Twas an absolute blast to create

[@SouthernSleuth]

I’m thinking this is the new melody for the twins 🎉🎉

[@LittleBookSpy]

This was absolutely amazing! You two did such an amazing job on this song! I loved it 💜💜

[@semperubisububi]

This is unbelievably good, thank you ❤

[@prof.hotchkiss]

I've gotta say, your username is fantastic!

[@theonlyredwolf]

That was hauntingly beautiful and the lyrics are SO clever, especially the main line "Once upon a newsletter." I noticed the change in the map at the end. Well done all around! I love this so much! I really want to hear this style of singing for the real song now. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@tori_nd_piano]

Fantastically done in every way! Bravo, ladies. And I ADORE Anastasia, so you couldn’t have picked a better song for a parody.

[@RetrospectBlog]

This is amazing! You both did such an amazing job on this song! 💙💙

[@MrsKiddigu]

That was nice. Well done. It was really well edited and sung.

[@chazvsjazz]

Why am I getting emotional 😭💖

[@prof.hotchkiss]

You're not emotional, I'm emotional 😅💜

[@SouthernSleuth]

It’s like the SpongeBob F-U-N song. You just can’t help yourself. 🥹

[@distant_dimensions]

Great video! If anyone asks for a summary of what's happened with the Clue Crew I'll send them this and watch them be even more confused 😂 I also just realized how similar that haunting looks to this scene in Anastasia!

[@SouthernSleuth]

The only thing we’re missing is Bartok!

[@prof.hotchkiss]

@@SouthernSleuth AND I'D KICK 'ER, SIR! ...truly a legend.

[@Clover.Shoppe]

This is so creative and so goooooooodddddd!!!!❤

[@gingerhoneylovebeet]

Besties, this is SO GOOD 🥺💛 You did phenomenal with this. So proud to be a small part of what you produced!

[@SouthernSleuth]

Teamwork! 😊

[@prof.hotchkiss]

Thanks for giving us the literal last piece of the puzzle! Chaos streams are just what a Hotchkiss needs to stir the caldron and stoke the fire!

[@sydneysmile005]

i’m on my third time listening (in a row) and omg this is EVERYTHING

[@SouthernSleuth]

We’ll burn it onto a CD for you all old school 😂😂

[@prof.hotchkiss]

I- I can't. Too many big feels. 💜 This is such a gift, Squid! Thanks for loving it 🥰

[@TheChristianCountess2721]

This is so amazing and I love how it tells the story of the new game while loving on the old ones! :D I love it so much!

[@prof.hotchkiss]

Why thank you! I can't take credit for all of the singing though-the melody was sung by the lovely Southern Sleuth, and she has the perfect voice for this type of project! I hope to collaborate with her more in future 💜

[@SouthernSleuth]

I am so happy I got to be a part of creating this! You blew it out of the water, Hotchy. 🐾🐾🐾🐾

[@prof.hotchkiss]

Sleuthy, it was such a joy to work with you on this project. Absolutely inspiring to hear you sing, I could not have come up with this without you!

[@distant_dimensions]
