While the guards at the Animal Asylum were having their break, the asylum came under attack by a [[Fright Hound]].

The next day, the gang was sitting near the school and Velma asked Shaggy, again, who will he choose - her or Scooby. Shaggy thinking how to answer when, suddenly, the gang saw a giant spider. They thought it was a real mystery, but then they saw it was just Jason, a boy who loved Velma. He made a spider robot to impress Velma, but Shaggy said that Velma already has a boyfriend. Then some bullies chase Jason away.

Velma's mother was making a tour for the tourists in her bus, when suddenly a [[Fright Hound]] appeared and attacked the bus, smashing it.
  +
  +
When the gang rode to the bus, Velma's mother said that Scooby was the dog who attacked her. The gang said that it wasn't true, but Scooby was wrongfully taken to the Animal Asylum by the police.
  +
  +
Shaggy was very upset that Scooby was not with him while sitting in the back of the Mystery Machine with Velma. Velma tried to calm him, and even started to behave like Scooby, but that didn't work.
  +
  +
Shaggy was still sad, so the gang went to the Animal Asylum to visit Scooby. There, Shaggy promised to save his friend. The guard showed them the most dangerous animal - a parrot named [[Professor Pericles]]. He was the mascot of the first Mystery Incorporated gang! He said to Fred "Beware of those closest to you." The gang wondered about that warning but they agreed to focus on the real mystery at hand.
  +
  +
The gang went to search for clues in the bus and found out that the dog was a robot. So Velma thought Jason was behind this and the gang went to his house. Jason's mom let them in. Jason's room was full of photos of Velma! He was talking with his pals, but they said he was not the culprit. Velma didn't believe him, so Jason began to cry.
  +
  +
When the gang was riding from the Asylum and Velma was still surprised that Jason wasn't behind the mystery, suddenly the [[Fright Hound]] attacked them in a car.

The gang went to the police, but the police officer was told that the [[Fright Hound]] attacked Animal Asylum again! Shaggy realises that if they won't get Scooby out of there, it is the end for Scooby.

The Hound attacked the guards. He fell in the fire, but that just made his paint come off, and all saw his robotic body. The monster ran to Scooby's cage, but Shaggy saved him. The robot chased the gang, so they decided to hide in an old factory. The monster nearly caught the gang, but all the gang teamed up and knocked the dog down.

The Fright Hound is revealed to be Jason's mom; she was angry at the gang for bullying Jason. Jason and Velma decided to be just friends. But Shaggy chose Scooby, not Velma, and Velma began to cry.

Howl of the Fright Hound is the tenth episode of the first season of Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated.

Premise

A robotic dog terrorizes Crystal Cove and frames Scooby! The gang has to capture the hound and clear Scooby's name.

Synopsis

While the guards at the Animal Asylum were having their break, the asylum came under attack by a Fright Hound.

The next day, the gang was sitting near the school and Velma asked Shaggy, again, who will he choose - her or Scooby. Shaggy thinking how to answer when, suddenly, the gang saw a giant spider. They thought it was a real mystery, but then they saw it was just Jason, a boy who loved Velma. He made a spider robot to impress Velma, but Shaggy said that Velma already has a boyfriend. Then some bullies chase Jason away.

Velma's mother was making a tour for the tourists in her bus, when suddenly a Fright Hound appeared and attacked the bus, smashing it.

When the gang rode to the bus, Velma's mother said that Scooby was the dog who attacked her. The gang said that it wasn't true, but Scooby was wrongfully taken to the Animal Asylum by the police.

Shaggy was very upset that Scooby was not with him while sitting in the back of the Mystery Machine with Velma. Velma tried to calm him, and even started to behave like Scooby, but that didn't work.

Shaggy was still sad, so the gang went to the Animal Asylum to visit Scooby. There, Shaggy promised to save his friend. The guard showed them the most dangerous animal - a parrot named Professor Pericles. He was the mascot of the first Mystery Incorporated gang! He said to Fred "Beware of those closest to you." The gang wondered about that warning but they agreed to focus on the real mystery at hand.

The gang went to search for clues in the bus and found out that the dog was a robot. So Velma thought Jason was behind this and the gang went to his house. Jason's mom let them in. Jason's room was full of photos of Velma! He was talking with his pals, but they said he was not the culprit. Velma didn't believe him, so Jason began to cry.

When the gang was riding from the Asylum and Velma was still surprised that Jason wasn't behind the mystery, suddenly the Fright Hound attacked them in a car.

The gang went to the police, but the police officer was told that the Fright Hound attacked Animal Asylum again! Shaggy realises that if they won't get Scooby out of there, it is the end for Scooby.

The Hound attacked the guards. He fell in the fire, but that just made his paint come off, and all saw his robotic body. The monster ran to Scooby's cage, but Shaggy saved him. The robot chased the gang, so they decided to hide in an old factory. The monster nearly caught the gang, but all the gang teamed up and knocked the dog down.

The Fright Hound is revealed to be Jason's mom; she was angry at the gang for bullying Jason. Jason and Velma decided to be just friends. But Shaggy chose Scooby, not Velma, and Velma began to cry.

All the animals were found... except one. Professor Pericles escaped. Mr. E send a message to the Gang, advising them to "follow the parrot."

Cultural references

  • This episode is a homage to the 1984 film, The Terminator, with a robotic dog taking the place of a humanoid robotic skeleton, the T-800.
    • The Fright Hound survives the flames of an exploding car, similar to how T-800 survived the flames of an exploding fuel truck.
    • The police station scenes.
    • Its disguise is burnt off at the police station, showing its exoskeleton underneath. This actually happened later on in Terminator.
    • The climax takes place in a factory, they also both managed to bust down a factory door, just like the movie, and after the robot is believed to have been destroyed it makes one final attempt before being crushed to death at the very end.
    • Even the music is alluded to.
  • "Jason Wyatt" is also the name of the production manager of this series.
  • This episode has similarities with the 1995 short film from Wallace & Gromit, A Close Shave, with a robot dog framing a real dog for their crimes.
  • The room holding Professor Pericles is similar to the cell for Magneto in the first two X-Men movies.
  • The uncanny way Pericles disturbs those who visit him is similar to Hannibal Lector in The Silence of the Lambs.
  • Scooby's use of a forklift against the Fright Hound is reminiscent of Ellen Ripley's fight against the Queen Xenomorph in Aliens.

Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches

  • TBA

Inconsistencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities

  • The Crystal Cove News has a photo of Shaggy, Scooby, and Velma has them depicted in a happier place than what has been depicted during season one. Not at one point in the season (or even season two) would this likely have happened.
  • After being wrecked by the Fright Hound, the roof of the Mystery Machine looks okay when the van drives to the factory.
  • The Fright Hound is credited as the "Demon Dog", which is actually a description given of it within the episode.
  • Jason's mom said she created the Fright Hound after seeing her boy being bullied. However, the Fright Hound attacks some officers in the episode's opening scene. Maybe she was just trying it out in the asylum first.
  • No one could tell the difference between Scooby-Doo and the Fright Hound, although it was obvious that the Fright Hound was extremely scary and looked horrible and fierce.
  • Mrs. Wyatt wants revenge on Mystery Inc. for bullying her son despite Gary and Ethan being his real bullies.
