Scooby-Doo, where are you?

It's Mr. Beeman, the real estate agent.

Mr. Beeman?

Yeah, he was printing millions

of counterfeit dollars in the basement...

...with his printing press.

What we originally thought was mold

was really green ink.

See?

I would've gotten away with it, too...

...if it wasn't for that big dog

and you meddling kids!

And that's how we solved

"The Case of the Moat Monster"...

...one of our most frightening mysteries.

Stories like that always give me

the heebie-jeebies.

No wonder you became a reporter.

That Moat Monster almost sliced you up

like a pepperoni pizza.

And then we wouldn't have

Coast to Coast with Daphne Blake...

...your very successful syndicated series

on Americana.

Going on its second season, I might add.

I never miss it.

Thanks, Chris. You know, the real reason

I changed jobs was because...

...the monsters and ghosts always

turned out to be bad guys in a mask.

Got a little boring?

No kidding. In fact, that's why the gang

went their separate ways...

...except for Fred and me.

She means Fred Jones, who's now

the producer and one-man crew...

...of Daphne's show.

How about getting a shot of Freddy, guys?

Is he cute or what?

So what's coming up for the new season?

A new series of segments called

Haunted America.

Sort of a

Ghost to Ghost with Daphne Blake?

Right, but this time I intend

to find some real haunted houses...

...for my viewers.

It's too bad the rest of the old gang

won't be along for the ride.

Yeah, I really miss them.

Yeah, we really miss you, too, Daphne.

Yeah!

Don't go away,

we'll be right back with Daphne Blake.

Hey, you two! Get back to work!

We're right on it, Boss-man, sir!

Got something, Scoob?

No offense, old buddy, but I think

your nose might be losing its touch.

Pretty sneaky,

but they can't fool your nose.

That's right!

No one brings contraband food

into our country with us on the job!

Let's go check it in, Scoob!

Is this the jackpot of jobs or what?

Yes, we do carry the Hair Raisers series.

Number 23, The Vampire Village? Got it.

Number 24,

The Creepy Clown Town? Got it.

Number 25,

Menace At Mummy Manor? Got it.

Yes, I'll hold them till Tuesday.

Two weeks from Tuesday?

Yeah, that's fine.

'Bye.

Solving mysteries was a lot more fun

than selling them.

Mystery Ink Bookshop.

Freddy?

Jinkies! Sounds great. Count me in.

Hi, Boss.

You ate all the contraband!

Excuse me!

Untrue, Boss. We didn't eat it all.

There's still a couple of Gorgonzolas left!

Help yourself!

You're a couple of Gorgonzolas.

You're fired!

What a grouch!

Looks like we're unemployed again, old pal.

Yeah! Unemployed!

Take it easy, buddy.

Something will turn up.

So what if this was the greatest gig ever!

So what if we starve.

Turn to skin and bones.

Hello. Freddy?

We just caught you on the tube!

Busy? Nah. Scoob and I were

just thinking of taking some time off!

Yeah! Yeah!

Sorry I'm late, Daph.

The traffic was murder.

Is this everything?

- Got the maps?

- Yeah.

Are you sure

you haven't forgotten anything!

Fred, what is with you?

Yes, I'm sure I'm sure.

Well, then...

Surprise! Happy Birthday, Daphne!

Gosh, it's great to see you all!

I've been working so hard...

...I guess I forgot my own birthday!

I hope you don't mind...

I asked the gang to come along.

This is the best birthday present ever.

It'll be just like old times.

Yeah! Old times!

Easy, boy. It's great to see you, too.

Speaking of old times,

look what I have for you, Scooby.

Scooby Snax!

Oh, boy!

Oh, boy!

Go long, guys!

I've been saving these Scooby Snax

for a long time.

Too long, Velma! They're stale.

Don't worry, guys. We're going

to New Orleans for our first segment:

Haunts of Louisiana.

New Orleans has

some of the best food in the world.

And the best ghosts.

I hope. Well, let's get going.

Hold it. There's just one more thing.

Groovy!

Perfect! Mystery Inc. is back in business.

Bad guys in masks, mechanical claws...

...magnets, hologram projectors.

Just like the good old days.

Too much like the good old days.

I've got a show to do.

I need a real live ghost.

That's an oxymoron.

Doesn't anybody want a beignet?

What I want is a house

that's really haunted.

I mean there must be one

somewhere in Louisiana.

There is. I work in it.

Sorry, I couldn't help but overhear.

I work as a chef in a house

on Moonscar Island...

...a house that really is haunted.

Jinkies!

My name is Lena. Lena Dupree.

Fred Jones. This is Velma Dinkley

and Daphne Blake.

Charmed.

Moonscar Island? Where is that?

It's in a bayou not far from here.

A pirate named Morgan Moonscar

died on the island.

And his spirit still haunts the place.

No offense, Lena, but it's probably

just some guy in an old pirate suit...

...trying to scare off the local kids.

The ghost is real.

Of course, if you're too scared to go...

Scared? Me? No, I don't think so.

If you want to check it out,

you're welcome to come by.

- I'll leave when I finish shopping.

- We'll think about it.

What do you think?

What do we have to lose?

It's the best lead we've had all day.

And that Lena is kind of cute.

I just meant she'd be real photogenic

for our segment.

Right.

Wipe your upper lip, Romeo.

Jinkies! Listen to this.

I punched up Moonscar Island

on our research database.

There have been strange disappearances

around that island over the years.

Sounds promising.

We'd better find Scooby and Shaggy

before Lena takes off.

- Where'd those guys go?

- That's no mystery.

Where else? To get a bite to eat!

I've made a lot of poor boy sandwiches

in my time.

But this has got to be the biggest

of them all!

We're used to eating big meals!

Buddy, don't hog all the hot sauce.

I see you boys like it hot.

Mo' hotter, mo' better.

Mo' hotter, mo' better!

That was a lot less filling

than I thought it would be.

Let's go, guys. We've found

another haunted house to investigate.

Good timing, guys.

Lena was just about to leave without us.

We're getting closer.

Moonscar Island is right in the middle

of the next bayou.

Sounds like a perfect place

to get some good, spooky footage.

And some good Cajun cooking!

For some reason, I'm still starved.

Even these stale Scooby Snax

are beginning to taste good.

Ms. Lena, I see you've brought you

some company.

Yes, Jacques. These folks came

a long way to see a real haunted house.

If they want haunted,

they've come to the right place.

Peoples go into that bayou,

and they don't never come out.

So we understand.

Ladies first.

Do you sell food on this ferry?

We're starved!

I didn't know you had a dog.

Dog? Where?

Are you allergic to dogs?

No, it's just that my employer,

Ms. Lenoir...

...she keeps cats.

Don't worry.

Scooby is great with cats. Right?

Yeah.

Gosh, I'd sure hate to get lost in here.

Way back in the 1700s,

pirates used this bayou...

...to hide from the law.

They knew only a fool

would come a looking in here.

And Morgan Moonscar
