Halloween (Google Doodle)

Halloween was a series of five panels, by Google, published on Halloween 2010 in place of the website's usual main page logo.

Premise
Mystery Inc. stumbles across a monster stealing Halloween candy.

Synopsis
On Halloween night, the gang arrives just as two young children are chased and have their candy stolen by a striped tentacle ghost. Once they've gotten there, Daphne tries to comfort the kids, as Velma examines one child's prop wand. Fred meanwhile is directed by a third child towards a trail of candies leading into the dark woods. Not assisting the situation in any way, Shaggy pulls a bone from a box for Scooby.

Following the trail of candies past a group of people playing basketball, Velma uses a magnifying glass to take a closer look at one candy. Nearby, Fred finds one of the children's bags and Daphne stands next to him. Elsewhere in the woods, Shaggy and Scooby are chased by the ghost and some bats. As they run, one of the basketball players tosses their basketball towards the ghost.

The basketball having hit the ghost on the head and knocking it to the ground near the Mystery Machine, Velma is able to remove its mask and reveal a black-haired, barefoot girl. The ghost's large torso is revealed to be a bag full of the stolen candy. The kids are excited to have their candy back, though Shaggy takes a sucker for himself.
