Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

OllieSuave-007 After many ghost-unmasking mysteries in the dozens of Scooby-Doo episodes, this series incarnation of the Great Dane features real ghosts - 13 of them, inadvertently released from an old red chest. As a result, it is up to the Mystery, Inc. gang to do their clue-finding and mystery solving acts to bust these demons.Best friends Scooby and Shaggy continue their wise-cracking, slapstick comic relief in their food-loving characteristics and in their humorous ways in case solving. Daphne and Scrappy returns - the more serious and go-get'em of the bunch, now joined by new character Film Flam. He's an OK character some of the time, but he can be an overly assertive, a blabbermouth and too overzealous. Also, another new character, Vincent Van Ghoul, serves as a nice addition to the cast - instructing and helping the Mystery, Inc. gang out in catching the demons and lending his magic when need be.With real ghosts in this series, the stories are more daring and creepy, and still keeping up the entertainment, laughs, jokes and fun adventures. The haunting and foreboding theme music in the opening and end credits remind you that the Scooby-Doo series has taken a new turn.Still missing the flavor of the original Mystery, Inc. gang and the episodes overall are entertaining, but not as great as the shows with the original crew. Grade B

voicemaster71 When Scooby Doo began in 1969, the concept was excellent. You had 4 teen sleuths and a goofy cowardly Great Dane solving mysteries and unmasking bad guys disguised as ghosts and monsters. Throughout Scooby's evolution, we saw the gang team up with celebrity guests, we saw the inclusions of Scooby Dum, Dynomutt, and the Laff a Lympics, and the eventual addition of Scrappy Doo. In what would be Scooby Doo's final regular show on Saturday mornings, Hanna Barbera presented to us what I call the final nail in Scooby's Saturday morning coffin. In my humble and honest opinion, the 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo is by far, the absolute worst series in Scooby's history! A complete and total abomination!! The only saving grace to the show was the inclusion of Vincent Price as warlock Vincent Van Ghoul who leads and guides the gang on their worldwide search to recapture the 13 ghosts that Scooby Doo and Shaggy were tricked into releasing in the pilot episode. Scooby Doo has gone from mystery solving canine to ghost hunter and the ghosts are real, no longer are they crooks in costumes. My first attack is on Daphne and Shaggy. Shaggy's clothes have changed colors, no big deal there. But he no longer seems worthy of the name Shaggy now that he lost his goatee. Daphne has a complete new makeover which I did not find impressive.My hatred of Scrappy Doo really reaches its peak, but guess what?! Hanna Barbera sunk to a new low and introduced a character so bad he made even Scrappy look good. Film Flam!! This stupid kid winds up tagging along with the gang and is a close friend to Vincent Van Ghoul and makes the gang a party of five again just like the old days.The there are two goony ghosts whose names escape me, but they were introduced for comic relief and are the two responsible for tricking Scooby into opening the Chest of Demons and releasing the 13 evil ghosts!!The biggest insult of all time to this show was simple. After guest appearing in a few episodes of the previous Scooby Doo series, both Fred and Velma have once again been wiped out of existence!! And to really add insult to injury, Scrappy Doo and Film Flam to me seem more like replacements for Fred and Velma, but thankfully not in personality. To this day, I wonder how Vincent Van Ghoul would have reacted to the likes of Fred and Velma, but I guess HB considered them too straight for this show. I hate Scrappy Doo! But I really HATE Film Flam even more!! The Hanna Barbera writers must have either been stoned or drunk when they created this super stinker of a show!!If you are a purist fan of the original concept, then 1985 was a bad year to watch Scooby Doo on TV. The 13 Ghosts series is one, the rerun series, Scooby's Mystery Fun House was another because it only showed reruns of the the New Scooby and Scrappy Doo Show and a few episodes of the New Scooby Doo Mysteries with none of the two parters from the previous year. Worse than that, they began airing the Scooby and Scrappy shows weekday afternoons, so if you were looking for any Scooby shows that included Freddy and Velma, you were plain simply out of luck that year.I would seriously recommend bypassing this one series of Scooby Doo unless you love Scrappy Doo or even love unusual things. But as I said before, this series to me does not even hold a candle to the original Scooby Doo Where Are You? series of 1969. Give me Fred and Velma over Scrappy Doo and Film Flam any day!! 2 Thumbs Down!!

departed07 what i like about 13 ghosts of scooby doo is that its twice as spooky and funnier than the other scooby cartoons. Even Vincent Price is in it. too bad it didn't make it, but it was still fun. i still watch this cartoon up to date, and its cool.

TheMan3051 It was a good idea to keep the Scobby-Doo saga alive by changing the format in each show. But while the shows from the `70s were funny, entertaining, and had decent story lines. The `80s shows took a drastic turn by introducing Scappy-Doo! After two (or 3?) worthless shows Hanna-Barbera made another drastic turn by having the gang minus Fred and Velma plus Vincent and Flim Flam search for 13 ghosts. The premise was pretty decent but what hurt the show A LOT were Scrappy and Flim Flam. If this show would have just been Scobby, Shaggy, Daphne, and Vincent then it would have been a decent program.
