Scooby-Doo! Abracadabra-Doo Page #3

---

Yeah, you and your sister

are like night and day.

[GRUNTING]

It must be stuck.

- A little help?

- Sure.

DAPHNE:
Thanks. Nothing like a workout

to control the klutziness.

[BOTH GROAN]

That wasn't klutziness.

That happened on its own.

Come on.

[BAT SCREECHES AND BOTH SCREAM]

This stuff must have been shipped over

from Ireland along with the castle.

Some of this is more recent.

This photo album can't be more

than 20 years old. Jinkies.

Isn't that Miss Rumblebuns?

It's hard to tell. She's smiling.

Madelyn says

Alma's worked here all her life.

Even before Whirlen won it in an auction.

This castle's like her home.

BOTH:

Oh, my gosh.

DAPHNE:

That's Mr. Curdles.

VELMA:
They must have been boyfriend

and girlfriend. It takes all kinds.

DAPHNE:

I guess.

- Ooh.

- Ew.

We have to build up our energy

in case we see that creepy griffin again.

Like, who can run away

on an empty stomach?

Not me.

[CREATURE GROWLING]

I think we hit that kitchen

in the nick of time, Scoob.

[CREATURE CONTINUES GROWLING]

Like, your tummy is growling.

Not my tummy.

Well, if it's not your tummy,

and it's not my tummy...

...like, it's his tummy.

[BOTH SCREAM]

Scoob.

Zoinks. A dead end. Nowhere to hide.

Look.

[SHAGGY & SCOOBY WHIMPERING]

[BIRD CHIRPING]

SCOOBY:

Phew.

Hello.

[ROARS]

Like, come on, Scoob,

make friends with the nice kitty cat.

[ROARS]

BOTH:

Yikes!

On second thought,

let's let him eat in peace.

[SHAGGY PANTING]

[WHIMPERING]

Hey, look.

Puppets.

Like, this must be where they store

their Halloween decorations.

Hey, Scoob, how many times have we run

into goons like this?

"And I would've got away with it too

if it weren't for you meddling kids."

[LAUGHING]

"And your dog too."

[CLEARS THROAT]

What are you doing in here?

Like, uh, we were just...

No one is allowed in this room.

Not students, not visitors,

and especially not fleabags.

[TECHNO MUSIC PLAYING]

- Huh?

- Huh?

[BOTH YELP]

Like, dude, how do you get out of here?

Scooby? Scooby-Doo, where are you?

Hey, who killed the light show?

CRYSTAL:

Just me.

That was scary.

[GIGGLES THEN YELPS]

- Shaggy.

MARLON:
Oh, dear.

What is this place?

It's my private workroom.

This is where I create props and illusions

for the students.

I heard noises

and found these two snooping around.

No harm done, Miss Alma.

I'm happy to give them a demonstration.

That's amazing.

Thank you.

It's a three-dimensional volumetric display.

Think of it as an upgrade on, you know,

your traditional hologram.

WHIRLEN:
Yes, my big brother's

quite the showman.

Alakazam

That was a little illusion he whipped up

for my farewell tour.

Wait, you two are brothers?

Funny, isn't it? I get stuck with the looks,

while lucky Marlon here, the brains.

Yeah, lucky me.

I'm in the early stages.

Right now I can only create small things.

But someday...

Hey, I just had a thought.

Maybe the griffin

is just like a humongous hologram.

Yeah, humongous hologram.

Nice try, you guys,

except holograms don't rip through trees.

- Like, not even little ones?

- Sorry.

By the way, Miss Crystal,

if that is your real name...

...how is it that you knew exactly which

button to push to shut off the system?

Uh, because it says off?

- Oh.

- Lf you ask me, Whirlen...

...all this electronic fakery

is exactly what's doomed your school.

The students don't need to learn a lot

of hokey Las Vegas illusions.

They should learn the real magic

of O'Flannery Castle...

...with all of its wonder and romance.

And do you have any stories of romance

you'd like to share?

Heh, heh. Heavens. I'm just a caretaker.

I leave the storytelling to the teachers.

And if the teachers are smart...

...they'll treat the tradition

of O'Flannery Castle with more respect.

That's the reason

the griffin's come back.

What do you mean?

It's here to return the castle

to the days of true magic.

The way it should be.

Okay, okay, Miss Rumblebuns.

We get it. Thank you.

Well, no one can say

she's not passionate about her work.

[LAUGHS]

Shaggy, Shaggy, Shaggy.

Oh, my gosh, I found it.

I found the magic staff.

You found the magic what? Yipe!

MADELYN:

I was reading about Lord O'Flannery.

He used a special magic staff

to summon the griffin and control it.

Where is this magic staff?

Lord O'Flannery had it placed

in his tomb...

...which is on an island

right here in Shadow Lake.

It's real close.

That's the same direction

the griffin came from.

AMOS:
You won't wanna be going there,

my friends.

What that fancy book won't tell you...

...is when Lord O'Flannery

came from Ireland...

...with him came his clan's banshee.

Banshee, like, that's a good thing, right?

It's a hideous female ghost

whose wailing dooms whoever hears it.

Not listening.

[HUMMING]

AMOS:
Legend says the banshee

wailed over Lord O'Flannery...

...as he breathed his last breath.

To this day, the ghost guards his tomb...

...ready to attack any who would disturb

the dark wizard's slumber.

You all have a pleasant evening.

Alrighty, who's up for pie?

Come on, Shaggy, we gotta find that staff.

It could be a clue.

[SIGHS]

[GIGGLING]

MAN [ON GPS]:
Shadow Lake

is a quarter-mile ahead. Spooky.

[MAN LAUGHING ON GPS]

FRED:

We better stick together, gang.

Remember,

that banshee could be anywhere.

Man, no matter how hard I try,

I can't forget something like that.

All ashore who's going ashore.

We should be getting close, gang.

Through here.

How about we go over?

How did you do...? Oh!

[FRED GRUNTING]

Fred, you okay?

Yeah.

I guess we all have

our danger-prone days.

[GIGGLES]

VELMA:

I think Scooby found something.

Check out this strange marking.

Each monolith has its own.

FRED:

And I found another on the floor.

There's one here too.

[GRUNTS]

[RUMBLING]

BOTH:

Uh-oh.

Oh, well, I guess we'll never get in

that kooky crypt.

Let's head back to the castle

and make enchiladas.

It moved. Oh, man.

Shaggy did it.

Come on, I bet if we push it...

FRED:

All right, everyone push.

A secret door. Let's go.

Scooby, run.

SHAGGY:

Hurry, Scoob.

Phew.

VELMA:

It's the O'Flannery crest.

Help me get the lid off.

DAPHNE:

That must be O'Flannery's staff.

And that must be O'Flannery.

- I'll get it.

- Wait, wait, wait.

Only the bravest hero should retrieve it.

Oh, all right.

[WHIMPERS]

- Scooby, do you mind?

- Sorry, Shaggy.

It's okay. Thanks for the hand.

- Uh, uh, Shaggy.

- Zoinks.

Yup, that's me, Shaggy Rogers,

the bravest of heroes.

[WHOOSH]

Shaggy, we have a visitor.

Then, like, why is nobody saying hello?

[BOTH YELP]

Uh-huh. Bravest of heroes.

So that's the banshee?

She doesn't look scary.

Yeah, she looks kind of pretty.

[SCREAMS]

[ALL SCREAM]

FRED:

Out here.

[SCREAMING]

We gotta get back to the boat.

We can't leave the staff. Come on.

DAPHNE:
Where'd they go?

FRED:
They'll be here.

Let's get the boat turned around.

[BANSHEE SCREAMING]

Madelyn!

MADELYN:

Coming through.

DAPHNE:
