Another wonderful Scooby mystery.
In this episode, the gang investigates when demons are wreaking havoc in Seattle.
Everything about this episode is fantastic. The demons have a delightfully creepy and memorable design. They also feel like a real threat to our heroes and provide some delightfully spooky moments. The way they appear in puffs of smoke and the creepy noise they make upon appearing make them even more spooky and fun. This episode also benefits from a great sense of atmosphere. This episode has some unique and memorable settings for a Scooby mystery. The underground city is an especially memorable setting. Not only is this setting wonderfully effective in and of itself, but the various abandoned stores underneath is equally fun. My favorite is one that is filled with statues of monsters and ghosts. What makes this scene even more fun is that some of the statues resemble characters from previous Scooby mysteries including Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Werewolf (1970) and Which Witch is Which (1969). This episode also has an especially fun climatic chase which masterfully mixes slapstick and thrills. Speaking of slapstick, the humor in this episode is often quite funny. The gag with Scooby and the shadow cracked me up.
An excellent episode and a must watch for Scooby fans.
