Haunted Road Trip (Scooby-Doo Reader) Scooby-Doo and the gang are going on a spoooky roadtrip, but yikes! Is the “Creepy Motel” really haunted? Find out in this new Scooby-Doo reader.
The gang go on a road trip and get caught in a storm. The roads are closed so they have to stay in a motel. It’s spooky and run-down, even the sign says “Creepy Motel”! Yikes! Shaggy and Scooby share a room, they’re freaked out, they pick up the phone to order room service and the line is dead, they turn on the TV and it’s a spooky movie marathon. Something knocks against their window and scratches at it, and then of course the power goes out! They find a flashlight and open the closet for more blankets when a ghost comes flying out! They spend the rest of the night huddled under the blanket together listening to scratching at eh windows and ghostly moans until they fall asleep. The next morning all is quiet and peacefull. Velma, Fred and Daphne come by to ask S&S if they had a good night’s sleep. No! this motel is haunted. All go outside. The phone was out because of the storm, which also knocked down a tree branch outside their window, and caused a power outage and howling winds. The ghost? An
old dressmakers dummy that a traveling salesman left behind in the closet. And the Creepy Motel sign? The neon sign is getting fixed. It now reads: Sleepy Motel and Restaurant!
Restaurant?! The gang get back on the road with lots of takeout food.
Customer Review: Silly, Scary Scooby Fun!
Yikes! You can be sure you are staying at a creepy motel when the sign outside says “Creepy Motel!” And the whole Scooby-Doo gang has to stay at that motel when they are caught in an awful storm. Scooby and Shaggy try to order some snacks (What a surprise!) from room service, but the line is dead. The TV station in town is running a marathon of creepy movies! There’s somebody scratching at their window! The electricity goes out! What more can happen?
Ohh! Look out! There’s a ghost in the closet! Can any of this be true, or is it their imaginations?
In short order, all is explained to everyone’s satisfaction. The “Creepy Motel” sign is fixed, and now it has all the letters working! It was really the “Sleepy Motel” that the gang was staying at, but they do get to drive away home with lots of snacks, on to some new adventure!
Fans of Scooby will adore this fast-paced little book and have lots of fun as Scooby-Do and Shaggy hide under the blankets, mistaking everything as scary stuff! Fun!
