Recap / The Scooby Doo Show S 2 E 6 The Ozark Witch Switch

Go To

The gang is headed to the Ozark River to camp and go rafting, only for the Mystery Machine to suddenly blow all four tires. Fortunately, the gang finds help in the form of the Hatfield family, who've been staying in the McCoy's old cabin for a year. The two families have been feuding, and the Hatfields have been warned that the ghost of Witch McCoy will turn them into frogs if they don't leave, but they aren't listening... until the witch appears and does as she promised, forcing the gang to figure out what's really happening.


This episode includes examples of the following:

  • Abhorrent Admirer: Scooby gets unwanted admiration from the Hatfields' mangy-looking dog.
  • Bewitched Amphibians: Witch McCoy's ghost threatens to turn the Hatfields into frogs. They're not buying it, and rightly so — the legend is a hoax.
  • Recycled Animation: Aggie Wilkins has the same character model as Netty Crabbe from "High Rise Hair-Raiser" but with different colored eyes and clothes.
  • "Scooby-Doo" Hoax: "Witch McCoy" is actually the girlfriend of a bank robber who's recently escaped from prison, and she's trying to scare the Hatfields away from the McCoy cabin so she and her boyfriend can retrieve a map they hid there that'll direct them to the hiding place of his loot.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: A villain pulls this during the climax — the fake zombie tries to flee when he thinks the gang have magical powers and have turned his partner into a frog. He runs right into the gang's trap.
