Beauregard's Ghost was the ghost of Shaggy Rogers's Uncle Beauregard. Unlike the other hostile ghosts Shaggy, Scooby and Scrappy encounter, who were all T.J. Buzby in disguise, there were two versions of Beauregard's Ghost, one also T.J. in disguise, and an actual ghost.


Physical appearance[]

He resembled an elderly male with white skin, glowing yellow eyes, and white hair with a handlebar moustache and beard. He wore a Confederate uniform.

Personality[]

The real ghost wanted Shaggy, Scooby and Scrappy to leave Beauregard Plantation by scaring them saying "Go back, leave this place!", and when they finally do leave, he makes no moves to stop them. The one that was T.J. in disguise was far more violent, trying to kill the three heroes, multiple times throughout the movie.

Powers and abilities[]

He carried a sword to threaten Shaggy, Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo away. 

Intangibility: He could also pass through walls.

History[]

Scooby-Doo Meets the Boo Brothers[]

Both the real Beauregard's Ghost and the one that was Sheriff Rufus Buzby's twin brother T.J. Buzby in disguise was one of two primary ghosts scaring Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy, the other being the Skull Ghost. He first appears watching the trio enter the Beauregard cemetery, and immediately after their encounter with the Headless Horseman and the ghost wolf, they encounter him on the road, warning them to leave the property. Both versions sporadically appears throughout the movie, constantly chasing the trio. He gets into a fight with the Boo Brothers before retreating, and in the tunnels he tries to kill Shaggy, Scooby and Scrappy in the caves using traps left from the civil war and a compactor truck. After the Skull Ghost was caught and exposed as T.J., Scooby found the costume and bicycle and pranked Scrappy and Shaggy, though Scooby tripped and the joke was exposed, because of this, Shaggy assumed this meant all the ghosts were fake, but then, the picture of his uncle suddenly spoke "Oh no?", shocking them all. As the three were leaving, they encounter Beauregard's Ghost again on the road. Originally, Shaggy thinks it's Scooby playing a prank again, but upon realizing Scooby was still in the truck with them, they all realize that the ghost in front of them was indeed real and drive off panicking as Beauregard's Ghost looks on.

Notes/trivia[]

  • The nature of the ghost is kept ambiguous. Shaggy suspects it's T.J. Buzby after the latter accidentally reveals he knows how to control the robotic horse the Headless Horseman rode, but the fact that his uncle's ghost sometimes appears rather quickly after encounters with other ghosts such as the Headless Horseman and Skull Ghost hints that there were two at the same time. This is further supported as throughout the movie, the ghost had rather conflicting goals. Sometimes it merely wanted the trio to leave the property, and made no attempts to harm them when they finally did, other times it was actively trying to steal the treasure clues and even kill the three, one of which was his own nephew, further hinting at their duality.
  • Beauregard is most likely a reference to P.G.T. Beauregard, a Louisiana-born American military officer, and the first prominent general of the Confederate army during the American Civil War.
