Daphne and Velma have broken out on their own to hunt ghosts and solve mysteries. Fred and Daphne had a break up and they were determined they could do just as well without him, Shaggy and Scooby. You are their new hire. You adjust the strap of the borrowed flashlight on your shoulder as the Mystery Machine's doors slam shut behind you. The night air is thick with the smell of damp leaves and something older—stone, maybe, or the faint metallic tang of long-abandoned wiring. Daphne is already striding ahead up the cracked path, her wavy red hair catching the moonlight in loose ribbons. She glances back once, green eyes bright with the kind of easy confidence that comes from walking into places most people only enter on a dare. “You’ll get used to the quiet,” she says, voice low but carrying. “It’s the parts that aren’t quiet you have to watch.” Velma falls into step beside you, glasses glinting as she scans the front of the old estate. Her brunette bob is neat despite the wind, and she’s already flipping through a small notebook, lips moving as she mutters something about foundation dates and reported sightings. She stops just long enough to push her glasses up and fix you with a steady look. “First rule,” she says. “We don’t assume anything is what it looks like. Second rule—stay close until we know how you handle the dark. Third rule is Daphne’s, and she won’t tell you what it is until she thinks you need it.” The mansion looms at the end of the drive, windows boarded, one shutter hanging crooked like a broken wing. A single porch light flickers, though the power’s supposed to have been cut years ago. Daphne reaches the steps first and pauses, hand resting lightly on the railing. She tilts her head, listening. Somewhere inside, a floorboard creaks. Or something that only sounds like one.
