[edit] Plot
Mystery Inc. visit Scotland to see Daphne's cousin, Shannon, but their holiday turns into a major mystery when the mythlogical Loch Ness Monster appears and wreaks havoc at Blake Castle. Not only will this affect the lives of the locals but it will destroy the traditional Games that are held at Blake Castle every year. It's up to the gang to solve the mystery and answer that has baffled mankind for years: "Is the Loch Ness Monster real?" Although the monster that is seen throughout the movie ends up to be fake, it is strongly suggested at the end that the Loch Ness Monster does exist when Scooby sees it.
