Scooby-Doo and the Haunted Hospital

The mystery Inc gang were out and about again after a long relaxing ghost-free summer. Now they were back on the road in the mystery machine. But all was not well. About half an hour into their journey, Shaggy shook Fred on the shoulder. "Zoiks! Do you hear that creepy sound?" He whined "I don't here anythin' shag." Fred replied "But I think it's obvious you want to get back into mystery solving" "The same goes for me!" Velma added typically. "What sort of sound is it?"

The whole gang listened in for the sound. "Golly! Shaggy I think that's your heart!" Daphne gasped "Well like, why's my heart making a sound like that?" Shaggy whimpered. "I don't know but we better get Doctor Trembler to see you" Fred suggested. "Roh no!" Scooby howled "Oh no is right!" Shaggy sighed.

Shag and Scoob had been in lots of haunted locations but Doc Trembler's surgery was ccccrreeeeppyyy!!! Firstly it had no electrical system so it relied on natural light for anyone to see anything. This was ok if you were suffering from hay fever in the summer, as it was sunny but if you had a cold, sitting in Doctor Trembler's waiting room didn't do it much good. They had radiators, but the staff in the surgery were so lazy they never bothered to turn them on. So without heat or light you may as well have been sitting in a monastery on a stone cold marble bench. (No offence intended to the monks.)

However, after Fred had devised a detour from the country lane where they were, to Trembler's surgery they set off to the kooky place of mystery, every so often singing 'achy breakey heart' just to annoy Shaggy. You'd soon see what I mean by the kooky place of Mystery if you saw the surgery. In fact you could have easily mistaken the place for a haunted house from an episode of Scooby-doo.

"Well here we are Shaggy" Velma said "Don't get scared of a little Doctors checkup now!" "Like, I'll try Velma" moaned Shaggy "Ignoring the faded wallpaper, the creaky diagnosis chair and the dozen or other plumbing jobs that need doing. Scoob isn't even allowed inside and last time it was him who was ill!"

The gang walked into the dim waiting room and up to the receptionist. "Excuse me miss, we have an appointment with Dr Trembler for a Mr Norville Rodgers" Fred said putting emphasis on 'Norville' (Shaggy in case you didn't know) "Right on through Norville" the receptionist replied. "Hmph! Like, thanks a lot Fred!" Shaggy muttered slumping through the open door. No sooner had he gone through, the gang heard his famous phrase 'Zoinks!' yelled loudly by the Shagster himself. "Quick gang! Something's happening in Dr Trembler's room!" Fred cried
