Welcome to another installment of The Ghostly Grotto. Today, I'm sharing a very rare and very special treat: the original 1969 underscore for the TV series "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!" which was composed by Ted Nichols. As a bonus, this post will also includes music from "The New Scooby-Doo Movies" and "The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour," composed by Hoyt Curtin who also composed for the series "Jonny Quest".

Here's the link: archive.org/details/tednicholsunderscores As another bonus, I'm sharing as many storyboards and production pieces as I can from the original 1969 series, in no particular order.

Hello again, faithful readers, and welcome back to The Ghostly Grotto. I've got another terrifying short film for your enjoyment today. It's a horrifying tale called "Teeny-Tiny And The Witch Woman".
One would not expect a children's fairytale (much less a Scholastic Video adaptation of it) to be actually scary. However, those who came in expecting just another 'Georgie' or 'There's Something Under My Bed'(which is also a hidden gem and I will talk about on a future Friday) were either happily surprised or utterly terrified by what they saw.
Fun fact: A long time ago, after we watched this short film, my brother and I used to freak each other out late at night in our bunk beds by doing the Witch Woman voice and calling out "WHOOOOOO IS AWAKE? AND WHOOOO IS ASLEEP?" Never failed to scare the heck out of me. The plot is similar to Hansel And Gretel: three kids are playing in the woods (which their mother tells them EVERY DAY not to do), when the trees eerily start to close in around them and block their path home. Creepy. So, they follow a light to an old cottage deep in the woods in a clearing, which is occupied by none other than the Witch Woman herself! Only Teeny-Tiny is wise to what is going on, but his brothers refuse to leave because they're tired and hungry. Will they escape? Or will they become part of the Witch Woman's fence of bones that circles her house? Yeah, I forgot there's this fence of little children bones around the Witch Woman's house. It's actually kind of terrifying. Enjoy!
