~ The Ghost Clown hypnotizing Daphne Blake.

The Ghost Clown is a recurring antagonist in the Scooby-Doo franchise.

Biography[]

Scooby-Doo! Where Are You?[]

Ghost Clown first appeared in the Scooby-Doo! Where Are You? episode "Bedlam in the Big Top". He was secretly portrayed by Harry the Hypnotist. He dressed up as the Ghost Clown, He was seeking revenge against the circus because he was sent to prison after he was caught stealing at the circus. In his revenge, he dressed up like a clown and hid in the shadows to terrorize the circus by sabotaging equipment.

When Mystery Inc. became involved in the conspiracy, he began turning them into his mindless slaves with his hypnotic golden coin (brainwashing Scooby into walking on a tightrope, Daphne into dressing up like a ballerina and riding a unicycle nonstop, and Shaggy into lion taming). Fortunately, other members of gang snapped them out of their respective trances.

After a plan to capture him in a cage backfires, Scooby and Shaggy decide to turn the tables on the clown by making him inadvertently hypnotize himself into acting like a chimpanzee. Afterward, he is unmasked, unhypnotized, and sent back to prison.

Scooby-Doo! Unmasked[]

Ghost Clown was a common enemy in the 2005 videogame Scooby-Doo! Unmasked.

Scooby-Doo! Who's Watching Who?[]

Ghost Clown was the second boss in the 2006 videogame Scooby-Doo! Who's Watching Who?.

Scooby-Doo! Curse of The Lake Monster[]

Ghost Clown appeared in the 2010 live-action film Scooby-Doo! Curse of The Lake Monster.

Scooby-Doo! Mask of The Blue Falcon[]

Ghost Clown appeared in the 2013 film Scooby-Doo! Mask of The Blue Falcon.

Scooby-Doo! And The Curse of The 13th Ghost[]

Ghost Clown appeared in the 2019 film Scooby-Doo! And The Curse of The 13th Ghost.

Personality[]

The Ghost Clown (and by extension Harry the Hypnotist) is one of the most evil and sinister villains of the Scooby-Doo franchise. He took sadistic delight in bringing harm to his hypnotized victims when he programs them to do life-threatening circus acts and releases them from their trance just to rub salt on the wound. He is also excepionally greedy and spiteful as the reason why he was arrested was because he stole some money and seeked revenge against the circus for this even though they had every right to send him to jail. He is implied to have a flexible side when it comes to terrorizing his victims as he doesn't just use hypnosis to handle them. He sabatoged the equipment some of the performers were using and he locked Fred in a costume closet.

Trivia[]

  • The Ghost Clown was the first Scooby-Doo villain to actually attempt to kill one or all of the main characters.
    • For some reason, the Ghost Clown likes to release his victims from their trances while in the midst of the dangerous scenarios. This is most like so that they'll end up accidentally killing themselves because they do not know how they got in these scenarios in the first place on account of being hypnotized.
      • He does this to Scooby and Shaggy, but for some reason doesn't bother with Daphne.
  • In 2008, a Ghost Clown action figure was released.
  • In 2019, Hallmark released a Scooby-Doo Christmas ornament with The Ghost Clown, The Creeper, and the Phantom Shadow.
  • It is shown that whenever a victim of the Ghost Clown's hypnotism is brought back to their senses, they do not recall what happened to them when he brainwashed them. This is a little elaborated on when Daphne is released from her hypnosis as she said that everything went "blank" when she was entranced.
