Scooby-Doo's Spookiest Tales [VHS]

This is one of the cheap mini collections of episodes aimed at parents who just buy their kids Scooby-Doo videos w/o paying attention. But this collection is not bad.1 Vampires, Bats and Scaredy Cats (Scooby-Dum) - from season 2 of the Scooby Doo Show 9/17/1977 (Not available on other DVD's)2 A Gaggle Of Galloping Ghosts - from season 1 of Scooby Doo Where Are You 11/22/1969 (Available on http://www.amazon.com/Scooby-Doo-Where-Are-You-Complete/dp/B0001CNQVM, http://www.amazon.com/Scooby-Doo-Spooky-Tales-Your-Rife/dp/B00CWR111G)3 That's Snow Ghost - from season 1 of Scooby Doo Where Are You 1/17/1970 (Available on http://www.amazon.com/Scooby-Doo-Where-Are-You-Complete/dp/B0001CNQVM, http://www.amazon.com/Scooby-Doo-Spooky-Tales--Holiday-Thrills/dp/B008CU8F0C, http://www.amazon.com/Scooby-Doo-Winter-Wonderdog-Frank-Welker/dp/B00006FDN0)4 Which Witch Is Which - from season 1 of Scooby Doo Where Are You 12/5/1969 (Available on http://www.amazon.com/Scooby-Doo-Where-Are-You-Complete/dp/B0001CNQVM, http://www.amazon.com/Scooby-Doo-Spooky-Tales-Your-Rife/dp/B00CWR111G)BONUS EPISODE hidden in the special features:5 Headless Horseman of Halloween (Scooby-Dum) - from season 1 of the Scooby Doo Show 9/17/1977 (Available on http://www.amazon.com/Scooby-Doo-Dynomutt-Hour-Complete/dp/B000CEXFZQ)So there is only 1 episode here that isn't already on DVD, but it is a good episode and nearly worth the cheap price of the DVD. Yes it would be better if Warner Bros gave us a bunch more season sets of the unreleased, but Vampires, Bats and Scaredy Cats is worth not waiting for.The DVD also has trailers fro Cyber Chase, Alien Invaders, Witch's Ghost and Zombie Island, but there is also a cool sneak peek trailer for Samurai Jack before the series started airing on Cartoon Network. Jack facing off with giant bugs that shows the style and flavor of that show.There is a special feature called "The Gang" that gives 4 bits of trivia about each member of Mystery Inc. Nothing mind blowing here.There is a 5 question trivia game called "Who's Who With Scooby-Doo" And according to this trivia someone else's dad bought the Mystery Machine for the gang, even though it seems to belong to Fred in nearly every movie and series released in the last decade or two.

very good thank even got it day early

There are many Scooby-Doo dvds you can buy but overall this one had the best mix of episodes if you were not going to buy the more expensive seasons that are out now. These is a great dvd for Halloween as it has some of the "spookiest tales" done for Scooby-Doo. "Vampires,Bats, And Scaredy Cats" is really good and features great Shaggy One Liners like when he see's the vampire and says "Look, it's gramps the vamp" and "I already gave at the bloodbank." You also have "Witch Witch Is Which" with it's Zombie and Witch characters with an old boat and swamp for a more scary effect."A Gaggle Of Galloping Ghosts" is on here as well as "That's Snow Ghost." These are good but I would probably have put another on here besides "That's Snow Ghost" as it fit's better on the dvd "Winter Wonderdog." But the main reason to get this dvd is for the episode "Headless Horseman Of Halloween." This has everything from a costume Hallowen party,Graveyard,a butler and of course, many one-liners from Shaggy.Overall this is the best value for a great mix of episodes. The "Headless Horseman Of Halloween" is only on the dvd and not the VHS version be sure to get the dvd for this bonus.

If you're one of the more casual Scooby fans (that doesn't care about price), don't bother with these weak compilation sets. Get something like "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! The Complete First and Second Seasons". DVDs like that will have all you want and more; If you're one of the more hardcore fans (like me), you should be getting this for one specific reason: "Vampires, Bats, and Scaredy Cats". It's the only episode of the second season of 'The Scooby-Doo Show' (the 1977 episodes) available on home video. I am kind of ticked off that that season (one of my favorites) isn't on DVD, but what are you gonna do? I take what I can get.

This is the perfect one--there apparently are other versions of this, which have only about half the episodes (even though they're called the same title, and have the same exact picture on the front), but this is the original, which is what we were hoping. We had an older copy that was wearing out, and the boys decided they wanted another VHS copy to replace it. We were really lucky to find this, and everyone is wildly excited to be able to watch it again to their heart's content without any tracking issues. (Needless to say, our boys are Scooby Doo fans, and we have nearly the entire collection.)

It was a little different than what I was expecting. The VHS I used to have had the episodes the other way around. Which Witch is Which, That's Snow Ghost, A Gaggle of Galloping Ghosts, and then Vampire Bats and Scaredy Cats. And Mr. Dracul's voice was softer in the VHS tape I had. But it's still a great DVD.

I don't know what happened but between the VHS release and this DVD release, Warner Brothers lost the original episode with Mr. Dracul. When an episode is only 20 minutes long to begin with, I expect the voicing and animation to be what I remember from the VHS and television. Digital iTunes and Boomerang versions have the same issue. You can find clips on Youtube of the differences between versions.

If you're looking for the memories of the 70's where you would wake up and have a big bowl of sweetened cereal and the house was filled with morning smells of hot pancakes and bacon with non-stop 'clean' sat. morning cartoons on tv, then you will not want to keep this out of your classic cartoon collection. It's a must have! Talk about good memories...You'll have it right here. Enjoy!
