Honourable Mention: Lego Scooby-Doo!: Haunted Hollywood


Directed by Rick Morales and released in 2016, this film merged the wholesome wackiness of Scooby-Doo with the equally wacky Lego brand of films to create a fun, if ultimately fluff, Scooby-Doo property.

The story sees Shaggy (Matthew Lillard) and Scooby (Frank Welker) win a competition (an eating contest) and being awarded a prize of a Hollywood vacation with tour around the Brickton movie studio. However, the studio, financially on its knees, is being haunted by the ghost of one of its great horror actors.

Cassandra Peterson voices Drella

The ghost appears as a Mummy, Headless Horseman and zombie but the reason for the mention is, firstly, that the studio filmed a vampire movie – The Vampyre Bites – and we see a poster for it, and more for horror hostess Drella Diabolique (voiced by the wonderful Cassandra Peterson) who dresses in a vampire type outfit, with fangs. So, acting like a vampire (and a fleeting poster visitation).
