Unser Aller Festival – The Three Investigators Graphic Novel

The Three Investigators as a Phenomenon

The Three Investigators, originally Die drei Fragezeichen, have been one of the most popular youth detective series in German-speaking countries since the 1960s. With over 200 book titles, hundreds of audio dramas, and a broad fan base ranging from children to adults who grew up with the stories, the series is a piece of pop culture. Graphic novels expand the spectrum with a graphic-narrative dimension.

Phantom Highway as a Graphic Novel

Phantom Highway is one of the graphic novel editions in the series. With large-format illustrations, a dense atmosphere, and a detailed story about mysterious events on a highway, it creates a read that appeals to both fans and a graphics-savvy audience. Christopher Tauber, one of the authors or participants in the series, brings the reading to the Eventwerk Meine.

Reading with Visuals

In a multimedia reading format, Tauber combines text passages from the work with image projections, background information on the creation of the graphic novel, and personal anecdotes. The format appeals equally to teenagers from about twelve years old and adults – those who grew up with the audio dramas will find a connection here.

Eventwerk Meine

The Eventwerk Meine is an established venue for concerts, readings, and events in the municipality of Meine in the Gifhorn district. With modern stage and media technology, it offers the technical level required for a multimedia reading.

Conclusion of the Aller Festival 2026

On June 7, 2026, Christopher Tauber's reading is one of the final highlights of the Unser Aller Festival 2026, which began on May 29 in the Schlosshof Gifhorn. This reading brings the festival full circle, having brought music, cabaret, readings, and lectures to more than ten locations in the district over ten days.
