Original Air Date: Saturday, September 14, 1985
Villain: Maldor the Malevolent / Monster Trees & Plants / Dragon-Rabbit / Rat Guards (aka Ratfinks)
The gang goes into Zagras the Wizard's castle, where Daphne is put under the "Sleep of the Centuries" by Maldor the Malevolent - the first of the 13 ghosts.
Trivia:
- Scooby hums the theme to The New Scooby-Doo Movies while cooking the magic soup.
- Daphne is laying on her chest when Maldor puts her to sleep. However, later on in the episode she is shown on her back.
- There is a large plothole in this episode because Scrappy is also a Great Dane, and thus should have been able to break the Sleep of the Centuries curse. A possible theory to fix this is that Scrappy's father could have been another type of dog, and a purebred Great Dane was necessary for this curse.

Villain: Rankor / SAPS / Weerd & Bogel
Vincent is turned to stone by the Eye of Eternity, and all hope seems lost. Weerd and Bogel offer to help the gang get Vincent back to normal within 24 hours, but can the gang really trust them?
Trivia:
- Somehow, the gang acts as if they do not know Weerd and Bogel in this episode, despite them being in nearly every episode so far.
- The fact that Rankor is attempting to get into SAPS does not logically make a lot of sense, as supposedly he's one of the 13 most powerful ghosts upon the face of the Earth. He also acts incredibly stupid and bumbling, to the extent of willingly going into the Demon Chest to avoid the sunlight.

Original Air Date: Saturday, December 7, 1985
Villain: Zimbulu / Zombies / Weerd & Bogel
Scooby and the gang go on live TV with Vincent's old friend Boris Kreepoff, only to have the demon chest stolen from their very grasp. They go to the medium Telullah to help, but everywhere she tells them to go seems to have grave danger.
Trivia:
- This is only the 11th or 12th ghost (depending on your view of Captain Ferguson) to be captured. This is because the series was cancelled before all the ghosts could be captured. However, in 2019, a movie entitled Scooby-Doo and the Curse of the 13th Ghost was released, which finally gave closure to the series after 33 years. You can find out more information on that film in the movie guide.
- Because it's a well known fact that all TV writers are magical and can see into the future, somehow the spelling of the words on the Scooby Snacks box briefly changes to "Scooby Snax" to align with the name of a certain Scooby fan site which would be created 29 years later. Arguably, this is not an animation mistake, but rather a super cool future shout-out to the very site you are on right now. xD
