Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)These two Scooby episodes are more on the essential side. In the first episode, the gang has car trouble near a strange house with a strange reputation. Then the gang is exposed to some events that would suggest that it is at least possible that the house is haunted. (This episode is a little stronger, because they had car trouble and can't just leave.) Creepy moments with the headless ghost are well placed. We may be used to the Fred, Daphne, Velmah /// Scooby, Shaggy split. But this episode offers a Fred, Daphne /// Scooby, Velmah, Shaggy,split which offers some wonderful chemistry between Scooby and Shaggy's sudden frights and Velmah's sassy but reliable sense of reason. A chase put to music helps liven things. I don't want to ruin the ending, but we are offered something that deviates from the standard formulas. My only complaint that anyone in a certain character's shoes (in an early scene) would have kept their mouth shut. Ofcourse, there would have been no story then, but one can not help but wonder why a certain thing was said. The second episode is also essential. Scooby and the gang go to this strange house because Scooby is named in a will. The creepy setting is well drawn, and humor is well placed. In this episode we get to see Scooby's unusual ability to walk off screen for a second and then return in an outfit totally suited to the current event. Again there is the wonderful chemistry between Shaggy, Scooby, and Velmah. Shaggy also has his memorable one liners: "I've got to be brave. I've got to be brave. I've got to be brave. I've got...I've got to be some kind of nut!" This episode keeps Scooby's wonderful combination of suspense and humor. There are probably some who will find a great deal of truth in the revealing of the culprits in this episode. The matter of the fortune also offers a bit of irony. If you like Scooby Doo, you can not be without these 2 episodes. CAUTION THOUGH: "If you already own "Scooby's Creepiest Capers," you don't need this tape, because these 2 episodes are on it.
