Calvin, the gangling, orange-haired, blue-eyed teenager who accompanies Meg and Charles Wallace on their journey to rescue Mr. Murray, fits in well with the Murry family, almost as if he is one of them. At their first meeting, he tells Charles Wallace and Meg that he once in awhile feels a "compulsion" to do things and that he obeys the compulsion. He had a feeling on that day that he should go over to the haunted house near the Murrys' home, and in doing so, he encountered Meg and Charles Wallace.
