Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! - Party Like It's 1899

Season 1, Episode 8

Premiere October 6, 2015

Quickly

The gang attends a party and solves two mysteries.

Thoughts, Details and Recap

The gang goes to Wuthering Manor for a Murder Mystery Dinner Party. Daphne is assigned Queen Victoria. Fred is assigned the role of bumbling police officer. Velma is assigned the role of the scullery maid. Shaggy is a chimney sweep. Scooby is Lady Bethabeth. Fred is very unhappy with his role because he wants to solve the mystery and the party host insists he act like an idiot. Velma is incapable of not following the rules of the party strictly and cannot break from the role Flumsy even to talk to Fred.

While the mystery of the party is playing out, a second headless ghost is abducting the guests. Shaggy and Scooby investigate the party mystery. Freed of the fear that normally distracts them, they prove themselves to be capable investigators of fake mysteries.

Daphne teams up with Bradwick. He has solved the mystery for the last five years.

Fred discovers clues to the real mystery like missing guests and tossed rooms. He tries to warn others but the gang refuses to stop playing the game until the headless ghost tries to chop Daphne's head off. This leads to a chase scene that results in the party goers being abducted. The song is great. It's reminds me of the second era of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! 

Everyone gets abducted aside from Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, Scooby and Bradwick. Then Bradwick is abducted. Then Fred is abducted. Then Daphne is abducted.

Scooby and Shaggy solve the party mystery. Velma solves the real mystery. Velma trips the Headless Count when he attacks Scooby and Shaggy. It's Bradwick. He robbed all the guests.

The Headless Count resembles the Headless Specter from Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! The murder mystery party is a fun premise. It makes sense that they would be there.
