Ep 8. Party Like It's 1899

The episode titled "Party Like It's 1899" is the eighth installment of the first season of Be Cool, Scooby-Doo. The overarching premise of the show is to follow the iconic mystery-solving gang from Mystery Inc. as they travel the world and solve seemingly unsolvable crimes and mysteries.

Each episode places the gang in a unique location, such as an amusement park, a cruise ship, or a museum, where they encounter a new cast of characters and are plunged into a new, often supernatural, mystery to solve. In this episode, they find themselves transported back in time to a 19th-century mansion.

The episode begins with Mystery Inc. receiving an invitation to a party at Hathaway Mansion, a sprawling estate located in the countryside. The invitation promises a night of "old-fashioned fun," complete with fine dining, dancing, and entertainment from a troupe of actors hired to put on a murder mystery play.

The gang arrives at the mansion and is greeted by the eccentric owner, a wealthy and reclusive businessman named Cyrus T. Buford III. From the moment they arrive, things feel off. The mansion is dark and foreboding, and the other guests seem equally wary and on-edge.

As the night progresses, strange things begin to happen. The lights flicker, the sound of footsteps echo through the halls, and objects move on their own. Soon, it's clear that something paranormal is at play.

When one of the guests is found murdered, the gang takes it upon themselves to solve the crime and bring the killer to justice. With the help of their trusty dog, Scooby-Doo, and a host of gadgets provided by their resident tech genius, Velma, they dive deep into the mystery and uncover a web of lies, secrets, and revenge.

Throughout the episode, the gang must navigate the challenges of 19th-century life, from Victorian-era clothing to outdated technology, all while solving the mystery and catching the killer before it's too late. Along the way, they encounter a colorful cast of characters, including an actor with a penchant for melodramatics, a stuffy butler with a secretive past, and a love-struck heiress.
