- Title: Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! – To Switch a Witch
- wiki: link
Scooby Sunday takes us back to Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! for another mystery involving some meddling kids and their talking dog. Headed to visit their friend Arlene (Janet Waldo) in Salem on Halloween, something only Mystery, Inc. would do, the gang runs into a new mystery involving the apparent return of Arlene’s notorious ancestor, the witch Milissa Wilcox, who a mob of superstitious locals believe has possessed Arlene.
During their investigation at Arlene’s home and around town (including a trip to Witch Museum), the group discovers a mysterious chemical eating a rug, a hot wire, Wilcox family records, and a mysterious symbol meant to keep a witch from rising from the grave. We also get a horrible night of trick-or-treating in which both Shaggy (Casey Kasem) and Scooby-Doo (Don Messick), dressed in their ill-conceived Halloween costumes, are mistaken for witches.
We get some staples here including a trap that doesn’t work as intended, but still catches the witch, Scooby fighting with a small mouse, and the witch mirroring Scooby making him initially believe she is his reflection. However, although the witch’s true identity is exposed, along with her accomplice (along with a plan that would have made it likely impossible to claim the inheritance), the episode is notable for not having an actual unmasking on-screen.
