This article is about the character from the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! episode, That's Snow Ghost. For other versions, see Mr. Leech (disambiguation).

Mr. Leech was the smuggling partner of the Wolf's End Lodge owner, Mr. Greenway.

Physical appearance

Mr. Leech is a short middle aged man, with black hair. He wears a green fur parka with light brown collar and cuffs with matching green pants and dark brown knee high boots and matching bowler hat and gloves.

Gold Key version

Mr. Leech is a short elderly man with white hair. He wears a blue fur parka with a white collar, blue pants and hat.

Personality

Seems to be a good-natured guest at the Wolf's End Lodge, but also appears all-too suspicious when trying to be nice, by petting Scooby-Doo.

History

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!

Season one

Mr. Leech and Mr. Greenway (middle) captured.

He pretended to be a guest at the lodge, asking for his suitcase to be looked after. In reality, this was where he was keeping the jewelry. When Mr. Greenway was caught as being the Snow Ghost, used to scare off snoopers, he and Mr. Leech were tied up, back-to-back, ready to be taken away by the Sheriff.

Appearances

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
- 117. That's Snow Ghost
Scooby Doo... Where Are You!
- #5(b). That's Snow Ghost!

Notes/trivia

His speech and appearance suggest that Leech is a parody of Peter Lorre, who often played sinister characters in the movies. One such Character was Joel Cairo in the 1941 film The Maltese Falcon.
He was wearing gloves when he enters the lodge, but when he gives Greenway the suitcase, he's not wearing them, but is seen wearing them again when he pets Scooby. When Greenway and Leech were seen tied up, Leech was wearing gloves, but in the shot of him and Greenway with Velma, he's not wearing them.
Unlike his boss its never shown how he is captured by the Scooby Doo gang!
