History[]
Early History[]
It all started when Vincent and Mortimer found King Solomon's Chest of Demons at his temple until Vincent accidentally released all of the 13 Ghosts. (Scooby-Doo! and the Curse of the 13th Ghost)
The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo[]
In ancient times, thirteen spirits terrorized the world and were somehow trapped within the chest by unknown means. The chest was locked away in a crypt of a temple located in a remote village in the Himalaya's where it remained for many years and was later found by the two ghosts Weerd & Bogel who were unable to open the chest (it could only be opened by the living) but were able to trick Scooby-Doo and Shaggy Rogers into opening it.
The chest was taken by the group and was used to re-imprison the spirits that were released. During their adventures, the former captive spirits tried whatever they could to destroy the chest, which hinted that it may have been a seal of an incredible power. Although the ghosts were eventually returned to the chest, its fate was unknown, although it could be assumed that it was hidden by the group or was returned to its original location in the dark crypt.

Notes/trivia[]
- The 5th demon is the only one of the 13 ghosts who's identity has never been confirmed in canon. Unofficial claim its either Ghost of the Bermuda Triangle lead by Captain Ferguson or the Cyclone Demon.
- The chest was usually kept in Flim Flam's Jacket.
- It was currently unknown who created the Chest of Demons, and if it was used for anything besides supernaturally imprisoning thirteen of the most terrifying ghosts and ghouls upon the face of the earth.
- In To All the Ghouls I've Loved Before and Scooby-Doo! and the Curse of the 13th Ghost, it was stated that only the living could open the chest. However, that was never applied consistently throughout the show, as Simbooloo opened the chest quite easily and several other demons attempted to.
- In the sequel film, the chest looked significantly less threatening: Instead of looking like a horned demon with emerald eyes, the lock on the chest was smaller in a box shaped with hollow eyes.
