Hey, what's happening?

Watch it!

We're going to fall!

I can't control it!

Velma: what's going
on down the road?

Dig that crazy drag race.

Hey, those men are in trouble!

Come on. Let's
see if we can help.

Daphne: are you all right?

Where's the little man?

He flew over there somewhere.

Help! Over here! Help!

Help! I'm slipping!

Scooby doo!

Good boy, scooby.

Great going, scooby doo.

That's the way to do it.

Wow, what a catch!

Shaggy: hey, scooby,
you're some cow pony.

Thanks.

I'm max the midget,

And the big fellow is
samson the strongman.

Glad to meet you.

Glad to meet you both.

That was some accident you had.

That was no accident.

Someone fixed that
bike to break in half.

Who would do such
a terrible thing?

Ah, never mind.

That circus we quit
was jinxed, right, max?

It's jinxed all right, sam.

Now let's get this
bike put back together

And get out of here.

Well, good luck.

Yeah. So long, kids.

If I were you,

I'd get out of this
neck of the woods

And fast!

What kind of a jinx

Would make them
leave the circus?

Search me.

Well, let's go see.

Ha ha ha ha hee hee hee!

I'm sure sorry to hear that
max and samson took off.

That's the last straw.

Now my circus
won't open this year.

That's too bad, mr. Barnstorm.

Tell me, what is
this jinx anyway?

This circus is haunted
by a... A ghost clown.

[Gulp]

A ghost clown?

A ghost clown? [Gulp]

Yes. When the ghost clown
appears in your circus,

You might as well quit.

Circus folks are superstitious.

But there are no such things
as ghosts, mr. Barnstorm.

Well, there's so many
strange things going on.

Freddy: what sort
of strange things,

Mr. Barnstorm?

Weird things,

Like trapeze wires
suddenly coming undone.

And then the lions...

They suddenly began
acting like scared pussycats.

Believe me, that
ghost clown is here,

And I think you kids had
better leave the grounds

And go straight home.

I'm all for that.

Good night, mr. Barnstorm.

Ghost clowns haunting circuses

Is a new one on me.

Hey, where's scooby doo?

Watch the pretty coin of gold,

And you will do
what you are told.

You are brave,
and that's a fact.

You will do the high wire act.

Scooby doo! Where are you?

Scooby doo! Where are you?

No sign of him. Let's
check in this tent.

It's the big top.

Look at all the trapeze stuff!

There's scooby!

And look at what he's doing!

Scooby, get down!

He acts like he's in a trance.

He did it!

Shaggy: where did
he learn to do that?

Come on, shaggy,
we've got to stop him.

Quick! Grab this trampoline!

Let's get it under scooby.

Now you stay here
and try to catch him,

And I'll go up and
try to help him.

Ok.

I'm coming, scooby doo.

The power of the
ghost clown is great.

It's time for that
silly dog to wake.

You shall not
work in this circus.

Huh? Where am i?

Scooby, be careful!

You're on the trapeze wire.

The wire?

Oh, no!

Hey, scooby doo!

Wire? Yipes!

Whoa!

Here's an umbrella
to help you balance.

Catch!

Thanks!

Scooby, pop the chute!

Great! You got it made.

Scooby doo! Heh hee hee!

Heh hee hee! Scooby doo!

Uh-oh.

Hey, I'm falling up!

He's falling up.

All that goes up must come down.

Hee hee hee hee!

They're sh**ting at me.

Hee hee ha ha!

Whoa!

sh**ting at you! I'll save you!

Coming, scooby!

A clown's rubber ladder.

I should have known.

Ha ha ha ha!

[Pop pop]

Gotcha!

We saved you, scooby.

Yeah. Thanks a lot.

Where could they be?

Not a sign of scooby yet.

Freddy, what's that?

It looks like the ghost clown.

Let's see what he's up to.

He's going into
the costume tent.

He could be hiding
anywhere in here.

You go left, and I'll go right.

I better check this
giant steamer trunk.

Ohh!

Freddy, what is it?

Freddy! Where are you?

You will pay
attention for a time...

And soon your thoughts
shall all be mine.

Watch the pretty coin of gold,

And you will do as you are told.

I wonder if that ghost clown

Is still here in the big top.

Let's, like, give a look.

What's that?

It's daphne on a unicycle.

Huh?

She can't even ride a bicycle.

She's in a trance
just like scooby was.

We got to wake her up.

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah!

[Plays uptempo]

She's coming back!
Now's our chance.

Give me a hand, scooby.

Shaggy: grab the stampede net!

Hang on! Here she comes!

[Crash] shaggy: yoww!

Scooby: ohh! Ohh!

She's heading
out of the big top!

We mustn't lose her!

Shaggy! Scooby!

Daphne went in the animal tent!

Hurry! Maybe we can catch her!

Animal tent! Let's go.

Look at daphne ride along
the top of those elephants.

She could get hurt.

Look! Now she's coming back!

We got to wake her up!

Scooby: I'll do it!

[Unintelligible]

[Aroo]

[Unintelligible]

Not me! Her!

[Aroo]

Scooby: now!

Daphne: oh! What? Hey!

Stop it!

That woke her up!

Hey, daphne! You're ok now.

Will you tell me what I'm doing

In this silly
costume and all wet?

You were in a trance.

We had to wake you up.

Where's freddy?

Freddy? We were
in the costume tent.

Then all went blank.

Huh?

Costume tent.

We'd better get over there

And find him, like, fast.

This is really weird.

I was locked in the trunk,

And you were put in a trance.

Don't you remember
anything, daphne?

I remember something
about money.

The rest is a blank.
How did he do it?

The only way we'll answer that

Is to ask the ghost
clown himself.

Uh-oh!

Now, here's the perfect trap.

One of us gets the ghost clown

To chase him up into the cage.

Then our man ducks
out the small door

At the other end,

Which is closed by
releasing a rope,

And then we have him caged.

And who's the
bait for this trap?

The fastest
runner, that's who...

Scooby doo.

Uh-uh. Uh-uh.

Ohh! Ohh! Sprained ankle!

Velma: that sprained ankle act

Won't work, scooby.

Anybody have a scooby snack?

I think this calls
for a bigger reward,

Don't you, daphne?

I sure do!

Here's a super-duper
hero sandwich!

Ok, scooby?

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Hold it! You forgot
I'm a track man.

I can really run and fast.

But I'm faster.

Why don't you both go
and split the sandwich?


All righty.

Ok by me.

Hold it, scooby. That's him.

That's the ghost clown.

Let's surround him.

You go that way,
and I'll go this way.

Watch the pretty coin of gold,

And you will do as you are told.

You are brave,
and that's a fact...

So you will do the
lion tamer's act.

[Sniffing]

[Lion roaring]

[Whip cracking]

Back up there, simba!
Roll over, simba!

Shaggy!

[Lion roaring]

[Whip cracking]

What's he doing?

Ha! Now, simba, stand!

Stand, simba!

[Roaring]

Shaggy?

Ha ha ha!

Very good,

But now the ghost clown strikes.

Ha! Ha! Back, simba!

Back!

Ha ha! Ho ho!

Heh heh!

[Roaring]

When I blow this whistle,

You won't be a lion tamer.

You'll be a tasty
snack for a hungry lion.

Ha ha ha!

Down, simba!

Shaggy!

Up, simba! Up! Down!

Up! Down!

Shaggy!

Back, simba! Back!

[Roaring]

Shaggy! Shaggy!

Give me that whistle.

Quick, shaggy! Wake up!

[Tweet tweet]

Oh, hi, scooby.

[Roaring]

Yipe!

[Roaring]

Here, shaggy!

Huh? Where did he go?

Over here.

Here I am. What are
you waiting for?

So, they think they
have escaped me.

Ha ha ha!

Man, he's after us.

Back to the cage and
the hero sandwich!

He's coming!

Drop the door!

Shaggy: we got him! Way to go!

Yay! Yay!

Good work, g*ng.

Now we'll unmask the ghost.

Ghost clown: you fools
will never capture

The ghost clown!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Don't tell me there
are two of them.

Velma: look! The one
in the cage is gone.

I can't believe it.

I would have bet
money we had him.

Money? Hey, that's
it. A gold coin!

I have an idea about
this ghost, scooby,

And we're going out again.

Not again!

[Whistling]

Ha ha ha ha!

Watch the pretty coin of gold,

And you both shall
do as you are told.

Now, scooby!

You both have fur.
You both are limp.

You swing from trees
like a happy chimp.

Watch the pretty coin of gold.

Be chimpanzees as you are told!

[Ooh ooh ooh ah ah ah]

[Ooh ooh ooh]

Look what shaggy and
scooby brought in on a leash.

They got him! But
what's going on?

Simple! He hypnotized himself!

I know that man. He's
harry the hypnotist.

He had an act with us,

But we caught him stealing
and sent him to prison.

Looks like he wanted
to get revenge.

As a ghost clown, he knew
he could ruin your circus.

He sure had us fooled

With this balloon copy
of the ghost clown.

You see, he inflated it
with this gas cartridge,

And it disappeared
when he deflated it.

Well, it was great work, kids.

Thanks to you,

My circus will open
this year after all.

Shaggy and scooby
sure were mysterious

About this big surprise
they have for us.

I hope scooby doesn't try
that high wire act again.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Presenting that hercules
among strongmen,

The man with muscles of
steel... Samson the super!

Velma: if he can lift
that, he is samson.

[Groaning]

[Applause]

Yay! Yay!

Yay! Yay!

What an act! It's great!

What a pair of
hams. They're a riot.

Yay! Yay!

[Cheering]
