* SympathyForTheDevil:[[spoiler: After Doubleday and Archambault are arrested, it's revealed that their primary motive was the fact that they were both angry with how Marius's uncle, who they had worked with for many years, had left the circus to Marius instead of one of them, and how Marius was "modernizing" the circus by doing things such as phasing out the trained animal acts (which left Doubleday out of a job) and giving it more of "theatrical" feel. Marius actually admitted that he could understand why Doubleday and Archambault were angry.]]

[[caption-width-right:342: Scooby, Shaggy, Velma, Daphne, Fred; in case you didn’t recognize them.]]
The eighteenth ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'' DirectToVideo film.

When the Scooby-Doo gang takes a vacation to Atlantic City, they come across a sign for the circus, so Fred insists they visit that night. As it turns out, the circus doesn’t open till the next day, but Fred insists they look around. Eventually, they encounter Marius, the owner of the circus, and a werewolf. Velma eventually scares off the werewolf, and Marius tells the gang that the werewolves have been around everywhere stealing jewelry. The gang agrees to take part in the circus acts while the other members of the circus have been frightened away.

* BadassBeard: Wulfric has one.
* BikerBabe: Daphne.
* BlackComedy: Fred explains that when he was practicing on the trapeze before, he didn’t catch the person he was supposed to who fell and hit more people who hit the popcorn machine that fell over and caught the bleachers on fire and burned down the whole circus. He broke a lot of bones, none of them his.
* BoundAndGagged: Marius. ''Twice.''
* ConspicuousCGI: Most of the CGI is done pretty well, but the most notable example might be the balls that Scooby-Doo balances on.
* ContinuityNod: From ''[[ScoobyDooLegendOfThePhantosaur Phantosaur]]'', Daphne’s biker skills make a return.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: In a chase scene atop a train, Shaggy brings down Archambault with tranquilizer darts.

** Eventually they do it again after being attacked in the city, but they end up with Fred.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: When Fred tries burying the werewolves in garbage, they avoid the attack, and end up covering the manhole into which Daphne and Velma just jumped.
* NonIronicClown: Well there’s one, but the main clown is actually an actor posing as a clown in the circus. His partner is the real clown.
* ScoobyDooHoax: All staged by [[spoiler:Doubleday and his trained orangutans so that they could steal jewelry. Well, that’s what you might think if Velma didn’t figure out that Archambault was in on it and cut Doubleday off before he could say so.
