A long-time Scooby-Doo/Hanna-Barbera voice actor John Stephenson has recently passed away. He was 91. yowpyowp.blogspot.com/2015/05/john-stephenson.htmlHe did many voice roles for Hanna-Barbera (most famously Mr. Slate of "The Flintstones"), including a number of Scooby-Doo shows. He voiced a number of villains and other incidental characters (like police officers and such.) Some of his known villain voices from the first season included the Black Knight Ghost, the Ghost of Elias Kingston, Big Bob Oakley, the Mummy, Dr. Jekyll/the Ghost of Mr. Hyde, the Caveman/Professor Wayne, the Creeper, and the Tiki Witch Doctor/John Simms. He even guest-starred in a couple of "What's New Scooby-Doo" episodes and in "Abracadabra Doo!" He will be missed.

I had just asked a question about why the Black Knight and the Creeper sounded the same. Same voice actor! He will be missed.
