At the stage where The Hex Girls were rehearsing earlier, Shaggy, Scooby, Ben, and Velma walked onto the stage. After Scooby and Shaggy mess around with the instruments a bit, The Hex Girls arrive
"Thanks for coming girls." Velma said
"We should all be home resting for the concert tomorrow. We only came cause Ben asked us to." Thorn said
"Hey, I was just following orders." Ben clarified
"Well, what do you want?" Dusk asked.
Just then the wind picked up really fast and the ghost came out from behind the trees and flew at the group and threw a fireball making them all scatter
Shaggy, Velma, and Scooby ran to the forest and past a soccer net and the ghost followed the and then Velma tripped.
"Help me, i've fallen and can't get up." Velma said as Shaggy and Scooby help her get back up
The three turn and see the ghost getting closer and the cowardly duo screamed
Just as the ghost was about 3 feet away from them, Velma shouted, "Now!!"
Once she did, two branches swung and hit the ghost into the soccer net
"Yes!" Velma said as Fred, Daphne, Team RWBY, come out from behind trees and Velma, Shaggy, Scooby, and Ben walk over to the ghost
"Okay, let's see who's behind all this." Fred said as Yang pulled off the mask of the ghost revealing.....Mr. McKnight
"Zoinks, like, it's the t-shirt guy." Shaggy said surprised
"Mr. McKnight, the pharmacist?" Daphne asked with confusion
The Hex Girls walk up and Thorn gasps.
"Daddy?" she asks sounding confused
"Hello, Sally" He said as he got out of the net
"Your dad's the ghost?" Luna asks
"Your name is Sally?" Fred said.
"I don't believe this, daddy, why would you do this?" Thorn asks still confused about why her father was the ghost
"You mean, you didn't know?" Daphne asks
The Hex Girls all shake their heads
"What in the world is going on this evening?" The mayor asks
The Mayor walks over and sees that Mr. McKnight was unmasked and fakes a surprised reaction
"Is that you McKnight???" He asked
"Perhaps we can explain." Weiss said
"Me and Weiss found flash powder residue where Shaggy and Scooby saw the ghost." Velma said
Weiss then pulled back the sleeve on one of McKnight's arms
"This is the device used to throw the fireballs which are just wads of flash paper. He got it from his daughter's stage props." Weiss added
Scooby then pushed a button on the wrist device launching a b=fireball which lands and explodes like a firework revealing that the cherry-picker Ben, Yang, and Velma found in the barn was behind some trees.
"Like, what's that?" Shaggy asked pointing at the cherry-picker
"That's the cherry-picker that made the ghost fly above the trees with the use of an extension device." Yang said
"And there's the fan that created the eerie wind." Velma added. "It would someone pretty strong to hoist Mr. McKnight around. Isn't that right, Jack?!?!?" she continued
Jack then came out from behind the trees and covered his face with his arm to keep the flashlight from blinding him
"Like, you should have been making pot-roasts instead of cooking up trouble." Shaggy said
"That goes for all of you!" Velma added
"'All of you'?" Ben said in confusion
"Sure, there had to be more than one person involved to make this hoax work." Weiss said as some of the locals came out from behind trees
"Well I for one am totally shocked by this deception!" The mayor said trying to still hide something
"You can stop the charade now, mayor. Cause you're the one who made me suspicious from the beginning" Velma said pointing her flashlight at him
"I'm very disappointed in you mayor. And all of you. For lining your pockets by dragging Sarah Ravencroft's name through the mud!" Ben stated not sounding happy at all
Later, at Ben's mansion
The Hex Girls were looking at the portrait of Sarah Ravencroft
"So she was a real Wiccan?" Thorn asks
"She looks beautiful." Dusk adds
"Yes, I think so too. And that's why I get mad when people accuse her of being a witch." Be said looking at the painting
"I guess we owe you girls an apology for thinking you were..." Fred started
"Witches.we saw you perform some sort of ritual in your shack." Daphne added
"Witches? We just pretend that stuff." Dusk said
"It's just a gimmick for our band. Kinda like Wiccans. Just ask Thorn, she is one" Luna adds
"yeah right. Sally McKnight. 1 16th blood on my mother's side.and that ritual you saw was peppermint and cloves to sooth my vocal cords. You think it's easy singing this stuff?" Thorn said
"Then like, what about your fangs?" Shaggy asks
"My dad's a dentist. He was the ones who put together the fake fangs." Luna said as she took out her fake fangs
"Ben?" The mayor said after stepping inside Ben's office
"What is it?" Ben asked
"We've been ringing your doorbell for some time and..." The mayor started
"Sorry, i've been meaning to fix that thing for years. What's up mayor?" Ben says
"Well, I feel bad about everything and I wanted to apologize for using your ancestor in our little publicity stunt." The mayor added
"It was natural to use Sarah because well, we accidentally dug up her grave." Mr. McKnight added
"What grave?" Ben said
"Well, you see, I lied to you when you asked if we found anything of Sarah's when we were building our puritan village." The mayor answered
"We did. It was her grave-marker." Mr. McKnight said
"But that's all we found...no bones." The mayor stated
"No...book?" Ben asked
"Nothing but that grave-marker. We swear, Ben." Mr. McKnight stated
"We don't even know where her grave is." The mayor noted
"Yeah. It could be anywhere between Miller's Creek and the old tree stump." Mr. McKnight said
Velma realized something and asked, "Shaggy, do you still have that shoebuckle Scooby found today?"
"Like, yeah. Here." Shaggy said as he pulled it out of his pocket.
Velma compares it to the latch on Sarah's book in the painting and turns to Scooby.
"Scooby, can you show me exactly where you found this?" Velma asks
"Reah." Scooby said
"Are you implying what I think you're implying, Velma?" Weiss asked
Velma nodded and everyone there headed off to where Scooby was leading them to where he found it
