and jumped into Shaggys arms watchingShaun of the Dead.

I averted my eyes and whispered jeepers when Skinner impaled his chin inHot Fuzz.

But, like the pepperpots ofDoctor Who, I watched the television with one eye open.

Beetlejuice Animated Series

Scooby-Dooscared me and elated me at the same time, so Ive seen every episode.

Be warned that I may get bored with writing and go off and play outside.

But I guess they thought it sounded better.

The only man on set with access to the costume.

Make A Beeline Away From That Feline

Scooby-Doodoes cat people.

Whos the villain?Dr.

Bell, Daphnes aunts bedside physician and a trained hypnotist.

This is the 10,000 Volt Ghost, an infamous phantom in theScooby-Doouniverse.

Hes haunting the sleepy town of Winterhaven where Mystery Inc. conveniently stop, only to discover trouble is afoot.

Fear factor:We all get a little fright when we get a mild electrical shock.

The Harum Scarum Sanatorium

The Harum Scarum Sanatoriumis, essentially, a cartoon horror movie.

Well, eight year-old me.

Whos the villain?Officer Oldfield.

Thats right, you heard me.

Hes a now incarcerated crim that was smuggling gold or some other high-value substance underneath Niagara Falls.

High Rise Hair Raiser

Imagine if Jon Pertwee was electrocuted and coated in blue paint.

Here we have a genuinely terrifying villain with piercing yellow eyes and a vampiric countenance.

His blood red cape doesnt help much, either.

Shes been dead for twenty years and she looks it.

Whos the villain?Red Sparks and Jim Rivets, two construction site foremen that have delightfully themed names.

Aside from those rather offensive moments, Bedlam in the Big Top is one of the greatestScooby-Dooepisodes Ive seen.

Seeing Daphne, Scooby and Shaggy under the clowns influence sends a chill down the spine.

And besides, who isnt afraid of a monster that looks like an effete member of Kiss.

Whos the villain?Scooby-Doois unbelievably obvious and thats partly the charm of it.

The Backstage Rage

Scooby-DoomeetsThe Phantom of the Opera, its an unusual mix but surprisingly it works.

Surprisingly they jump to the conclusion that its counterfeiters and indeed, they are right.

The pace quickens and soon Mystery Inc. find themselves with a mystery on their hands (again).

Fear factor:what makes The Backstage Rage scary is really the atmosphere.

I suppose withScooby-Dooit never is.

The Chiller Diller Movie Thrillerisquite a thriller, in the loosest possible sense of the word.

But disaster strikes as the movies original star returns to proclaim that nobody can ever remake his famous feat.

Presumably this is what Edward Woodward will one day do to Nicholas Cage.

Whos the villain?Scooby-Dees right-hand man, surprisingly.

I didnt actually see it coming but dont tell anyone that, Ill never live it down.

section below and go off and watch this episode.

I bet youll never guess who the titular zombie is).

It moves from a snack bar to a ridiculously anticlimactic car chase and then to a doll factory.

This all comes from Scooby witnessing a jewelry store robbery.

Fear factor:the eponymous ghoul is sufficiently spooky in its own right.

Nonetheless facelessness and nondescript clothing lend a chilling air to the no-faced zombie.

Now go and bet the car, I shall wait.

Nowhere to Hyde

Nowhere to Hyde is absolutely terrifying in every respect.

This is a definite no-no.
