* ShownTheirWork: This is one of the few media depictions to depict the Loch Ness Monster as amphibious rather than fully aquatic. The initial wave of Nessie sightings involved the creature walking along on land or resting on the shores of the lake rather than swimming.

* NothingIsScarier: The WhamShot of Scooby potentially seeing the ''real'' Nessie as they drive away from Blake Castle seems to indicate that the gang was dealing with the real thing on at least a few occasions throughout the movie. There's no way of knowing which attacks were just staged and which ones were where lives were actually in danger.

* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: The person behind the fake monster only wanted to try and make Sir Ian believe in a real one, and did the whole scam instead of just showing Ian the ''very good photos'' they seem to have of the "real" monster. After the hoax is revealed Velma prods them into sharing the photos... and Ian is instantly hooked. If he was that willing to buy it after learning they set up a massive hoax to fool him, he probably would have been fine in seeing them earlier.

The seventh ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'' direct-to-video film. In it, [[CaptainObvious the gang encounters the Loch Ness Monster]].

Mystery Inc. travels to Loch Ness in Scotland to see the famous Blake Castle, where Daphne's cousin Shannon lives, and where the Highland Games are being held. But there's a problem. Apparently, there was a recent attack made by none other by Nessie herself. Shannon also claims to have seen the creature before, and claims that it is real, siding with local enthusiast [[NewAgeRetroHippie Del Chillman]] and Professor Pembrooke, a scientist who staked her whole career on proving the monster's existence. However, Sir Ian Locksley, the head judge of the games, thinks just the opposite, causing a mutual hatred between him and Pembrooke.

The next night, Shaggy and Scooby are chased by the monster, ruining the game field in the process. The gang searches the area for clues, and sure enough, they discover that the monster tracks lead into town instead of toward the loch. Whether they like it or not, they've got a mystery on their hands.
