Production Notes[]
Ted Nichols is credited with an instrumental music piece meant for Scooby Doo... Where Are You! opening and closing credits. It aired with the opening of What a Night for a Knight, the closing of Hassle in the Castle, Which Witch is Which?, and A Night of Fright is No Delight. It appeared by itself in only one episode: A Clue for Scooby Doo. Part of the tune is heard during all the title cards through The New Scooby-Doo Movies, and in some rebroadcasts includes vocal effects such as Shaggy speaking the show's main title, and Velma & Scooby gasping, or otherwise complaining. It can be found in clips on Youtube, and is necessary to search Ted Nichols's name as well.
