After the candle went out, no one moved. Luckily, the moonlight was bright enough that it wasn’t completely black. But the mannequins cast creepy shadows all around the room.

Suddenly, a grumbling sound echoed from the corner. Everyone jumped.

“Just my tummy,” Shaggy said.

“You just ate an apple pie,” Daphne reminded him.

“Like, that just means the dessert part of my stomach is full. But the sandwich part of my belly is still starving,” Shaggy explained.

“There’s something strange about that vampire,” Fred said. He moved toward the door. “I think it’s time for us to split up and look for clues.”

“Before we can do that, we need to find another candle,” Daphne reminded him.

“We won’t be able to follow the vampire’s trail in the dark,” Velma agreed.

Suddenly, Dr. Franklin appeared. “There you are!” he cried, giving everyone a fresh candle. It was almost as though he had been listening outside the door. He didn’t look very surprised to see them. “What on earth are you doing in here? These costumes are awfully scary, aren’t they?” He grinned.

“We noticed that one of the costumes is missing,” Velma said.

“Yes, yes,” Dr. Franklin said. He looked at the empty mannequin. “You’re right about that.”

“Do you happen to know if it was a vampire costume?” Fred asked.

“A vampire costume?” Dr. Franklin asked. “Why on earth would you ask that?” Suddenly, the hotel owner started sneezing again. He backed toward the door. “I’m sorry,” he said nervously. “I must excuse myself.”
