"I can't believe we have to solve a mystery on our vacation and just when we got back from camp too" Shaggy Jr sighed as they walked through the park.
"I know but Dad said to get used to it because it happens often" Taylor replied.
"No" Daisy said.
"Yes"
"That sucks" Jackie sighed.
"Can we ride some more roller coasters?" Sammie asked.
"No, we're trying to solve a mystery" Daisy retorted
"Yes we can" Shaggy jr said.
"Why?"
"Because Dad said during the Roller Ghoster case they rode rides"
"Oh then I guess we can" Daisy shrugged.
"Let's ride that one" Jackie declared stopping to point at a particularly tall,dark,scary ride.
"Terror mansion ?"
"Why?" Taylor asked
"That's why" Jackie replied pointing to the poster beside the ride.
"The River Monster?" Shaggy Jr asked as they got into line.
"That's the same poster outside the house of mirrors" Jackie explained.
"So?"
"So the monster could make an appearance here"
"Great" Shaggy Jr said uneasily.
"Relax we'll have fun" Taylor said patting her brother on the back just before they climbed into the car.
"Are you kids sure you can handle this ride?" The ride attendant asked as he lowered the bar.
"Yes why wouldn't we?" Jackie asked.
"Well it's just that this ride is pretty scary and the River Monster has been showing up more and more around here"
"Really?" Jackie asked interested while Taylor once again snapped a photo.
"Yeah"
"Interesting" Daisy said as the car begun to move forwards. Slowly into the black doors swung open.
"Here we go" Shaggy Jr whispered as the car moved through the doors.
A soft but cold wind hit there faces as the car made a turn into what seemed like a broken down house. People dressed in fancy clothes were having a party but they were transparent ghosts. Sammie started shaking at this sight but it would only get worse. They passed from the party room to a foggy graveyard where people covered in slime were popping up zombies.
"Stop that" Daisy ordered Shaggy Jr whose teeth were chattering.
The car took another turn back into the house. This time they entered a child's room where a transparent girl was playing with a broken doll that floated over the head's of the kids causing Sammie too burrow her head into Shaggy Jr's arm.
"Relax it's almost over" Taylor whispered.
The last scene the car went through was a murky swamp. Where monsters popped up before receeding back into the water well almost all the monsters.
"Guys that looks like the River Monster" Taylor said nervously.
"Relax maybe it's a hologram or a robot"
Then the monster lifted its head and snarled at them before launching itself onto the front of the car.
"AHH" the kids screamed but luckily the doors opened seeing this the monster jumped back into the shadows of the ride.
The kids hastily climbed out of the car panting from the scare.
"Well that's the first clue" Jackie sighed.
"What clue?"
"The monster seems to strike in or near attractions with that poster" Jackie explained.
"I wonder why" Daisy replied.
"We need to research that movie and see how it plays into this" Jackie declared.
"According to this map there's a small theater by water rapids" Taylor said looking over a map.
"Does that mean what I think it means?"
"Yeah"
"Let's split up"
