Shaggy's Item - The Tome of Doom
This item is used by Shaggy for supernatural combat. •
Opening the Tome: When Shaggy pulls out the Tome of Doom, a cone of light will erupt from the book and shine in the direction Shaggy is facing. Press the B Button to open the Tome and reel in the ghosts. •
Locking on Target: The Tome of Doom automatically targets the first supernatural creature it encounters.
•
Draining the Ghost: Once the Tome of Doom has locked onto a target, press the B Button to drain the ghost's "life force." You must completely drain the ghost before the Tome of Doom runs out of energy, or the creature may realize you are harmless and try to attack you.
•
Recharging the Tome of Doom: Shaggy can recharge the Tome of Doom in two ways. Either he can walk over Wisps, or he can attract Small Wisps from a distance by using the Tome of Doom. By capturing a Wisp, the Tome of Doom regains necessary Energy Points. Getting Started

Character Select
All five members of the Scooby gang begin the game, but only one at a time can play a computer level. You have the choice of which character to select for each level, but don't be scared or the Phantom Virus will catch you. If that happens, you'll have to choose another member of the Scooby gang to complete the level, giving you 5 chances to get through the game.
When you find a CD in the lab, take it over to the laser to open a new level. That is where you can choose which character you'd like to play by pressing the L Button. Remember, only the characters that have not been captured will be available.
