This topic might have a better name.

Both Scooby-Doo and Scooby Doo appear in prose stories. It is requires more research to determine which is prevalent.

Talk about it here.

Scooby Doo

Scooby-Doo was a popular animated TV series by Hanna-Barbera. It was broadcast on Earth. It featured Scooby-Doo and a gang of kids, including Shaggy, Velma (PROSE: Slow Decay) and Fred. (PROSE: Trace Memory) They faced ghouls, ghosts and monsters who would most often turn out to be men, usually the caretaker, in masks. (PROSE: Slow Decay) The Scooby gang would often split up and search for clues; a decision which would never end well. (PROSE: The Shining Man, The Good Doctor)

There were at least six incarnations of Scooby-Doo. The sixth, dating to the early 1980s had Scooby and Shaggy meeting with real ghosts and vampires. Scooby-Doo films and series from this era included The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo, Scooby-Doo Meets the Boo Brothers and Scooby-Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf. (PROSE: Slow Decay)

Iris Wildthyme once watched an episode of Scooby-Doo in the Monk's Pantry Café inside the cathedral. (PROSE: Iris Wildthyme and the Unholy Ghost)

Owen and Tosh later discussed which Scooby Doo characters they would be while heading into the basement of the Torchwood Hub.
