Notes:
GOOD BITS: Sholly Fisch gives us some good character names: "Sy Phye" speaks for its futuristic self, stickler historian "Anna Kronus" = anachronous, and "Scarlet Knights" is the name of the Rutgers University football and basketball teams.
While investigating the haunting of the renaissance faire, Shaggy goes undercover dressed as a medieval minstrel and sings the following song:
"Now heroes are brave and bold,
But I would rather flee!
With knocking knees and chattering teeth,
It's a COWARD'S LIFE for me!"
"From North to south and east to west,
I'll run from coast to coast,
So please stay far,
Out of my way,
If I should see that ghost!"
