Warner Brothers Home Entertainment has detailed, via Collider, the next Direct-To-Video Scooby-Doo movie, and it’s going to be a doozy!
Basically, it’s going to be the series finale of The 13 Ghosts Of Scooby-Doo.
For those that don’t know what that is, 13 Ghosts was the 1985 Scooby-Doo series that saw Scooby, Shaggy, and Daphne traveling the globe with Scrappy and a new character, Flim-Flam, recapturing ghosts and demons under the guidance of Vincent Van Ghoul, originally voiced by horror icon Vincent Price.
The series saw this new gang only capture 12 of the 13 ghosts and has left fans wondering for years if we would ever see a conclusion, and I’m happy to say WB has listened.
It’s cool to see that, seemingly, Flim-Flam is back, but I was hoping to see a return appearance from Scrappy as well.
Hopefully he is addressed in some way that’s not just a slam.
The official synopsis is:
After the Mystery Inc. gang goofed up a case and nabbed an innocent man, they’re forced into early retirement from crime solving. It’s not long however, before their old friend Vincent Van Ghoul needs help and pulls the team right back into action. The gang has unfinished business they must tend to, which involves catching a ghost that previously got away. It all happened one summer while Velma and Freddy where away at camp. Scooby-Doo, Shaggy and Daphne secretly hunted down 12 of the world’s spookiest ghosts but failed to catch the most evil one of them all…the 13th ghost.
Now the elusive spook is wreaking havoc. Vincent needs help having him captured and confined to the chest of demons, a box that contains the other 12 captured ghosts. With the 13th ghost still on the loose, the gang will have to come out of retirement and finish the job once and for all. The chest however, is now located somewhere in a remote village in the Himalayas. Determined to help Vincent, the gang sets out on one of their most thrilling adventures yet! Bundle up and get ready for the icy slopes of the Himalayan mountains, chilling car chases, crystal balls and spine-tingling spells in this terrifyingly fun original movie!
Featuring Frank Welker as Scooby & Fred, Grey Griffin as Daphne, Matthew Lillard as Shaggy, Kate Micucci as Velma, Maurice LaMarche as Vincent Van Ghoul.
