With October being the spookiest month of the year, Warner Bros. is going all out to celebrate everyone’s favorite ghost-finding dog, Scooby-Doo, during “Scoobtober.”

The celebration includes a new animated movie, Mystery Gang-themed merch from Hot Topic, Lunchbox, FYE, Loungefly, and Buckle Down, and in-person events at The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis and New York Comic Con.

“Scoobtober” kicks off at 3 p.m. Oct. 3, 2022, with a marathon of movies on Cartoon Network. The network will have more marathons and movie screenings throughout the month, including:

  • 7 p.m. Tuesdays-Thursdays — “Scooby-Doo! and Guess Who?!”
  • 7 p.m. Oct. 7 — “Straight Outta Nowhere: Scooby-Doo Meets Courage the Cowardly Dog”
  • 7 p.m. Oct. 14 — “Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo!”

“Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo!” is a brand new animated movie and shows the Mystery Gang trying to catch a break and get ready for Halloween. But spooky doppelganger ghosts of the gang and classic villains show up to wreak havoc and ruin Coolsville’s Halloween festivities. So, it’s up to those meddling kids to save the holiday.

New York Comic Con will also host an early screening of “Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo!” at 4:45 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 7, in Room 401. The screening includes games, giveaways, goodies, and a chance to dress up in Halloween costumes.
