As expected, Google has not just one but a series of five doodles at their home page today to celebrate the scariest day of the year, it’s Halloween!

And for the first time ever, those five doodles form a story based on the Hanna-Barbera cartoon show, Scooby Doo.

The panels feature the Mystery, Inc gang as they attempt solve a mystery about a strange creature trying to scare trick-or-treating kids.

Of course, the gang did solve the mystery of who/what the monster is.

However, what remains a mystery to me is why are there basketball players in the third and fourth frames?

Why do you think?
