The girl ghouls all headed off into the room they were doing the seance in. Once there, they found a pile of stuff that Missy had prepared for the seance, including a tablecloth, a stack of chairs and their costumes.
"Can somebody help me with the tablecloth?" Tanis asked.
"Sure." Sybella agreed. "It would be fangtastic if the rest of you could give Winnie a hand with those chairs."
Sybella and Tanis unfolded the tablecloth, which was set on one of the chairs, and draped it over the table carefully. Meanwhile, Winnie, Elsa and Phantasma started setting up the stacked chairs around the table.
"Alright, I think we've got it!" Winnie said. "Now let's get these costumes on."
"Does it matter, though?" Elsa asked. "Mr. Wiley has already seen us out of costume at dinner."
"Hmm...I guess not, but it was kinda fun getting to dress up." Phantasma giggled.

Flim-Flam eagerly got out items he thought might be useful for the seance. He got a tablecloth, cards, the crystal... "So what do we need for this here seance, anyhow?" he asked Missy. "And what are the costumes for?" He saw the others already with a tablecloth and went to help. Meanwhile, Scrappy and Matches worked on doing the dishes.
"Okay Matches, they're ready to dry!" Scrappy called out. In response, Matches blew a flame over all the dripping dishes. A napkin was wedged between two and caught on fire. Scrappy quickly doused it with water from a lemonade pitcher. "Okay, one more time!"

Marybelle took her position in the middle of the upper deck, and raised her right arm” Ladies, are you ready?” I’m ready” Dixie said as she wrapped a sling filled with snowballs around her waist.” Armed and ready” Creola called out from her section.” Ready to fire .. snowballs” Missy said. “ Then.. begin!” Marybelle calls out and Dixie Missy and Creola began running towards each other. Dixie made the first throw catching Missy near the left knee and earning herself 1 point. Creola scored a direct hit on Dixie hitting her in the right side of her head and earning 3 points.” Ouch” Dixie shook her head.” Are you sure that you never played baseball Creola? Because that as a hard curve.” No Dixie, never played the game.” Dix, baseball as we know it wasn’t started until the 1870s, 1876 or something like that.” Missy said.” Less talking ladies, more throwing.” Creola laughed as she threw at Missy and missed. Missy hit Creola right on the waist.” Hmm we’ll call that 2 points” Missy said. After 1 round, Creola had 8 points, Missy 6 and Dixie 5

Mr Wiley walked into the room where the girls were setting up for the seance” Do you ladies mind if I just pick out a chair to sit on?” The spirit asked” Also, do you know exactly when you will start? I ask only out of curiosity.” - Ginna and Eliza entered the second movie screening room and turned on the popcorn machine.” Miss Missy gave us three movies to choose from.” Eliza said “ The Haunted Manor, The Pirate and the Ghost Ship, or Tracking Davy Crockett’s treasure.” I pick the Manor. Ginna said as she put the film on.” Don’t eat all the popcorn.” Eliza teased.

"Not at all! Feel free to sit anywhere." Tanis invited.
"We're still waiting on a couple other people, but we'll probably start in a half-hour or so." Elsa informed.

"Hey, like, I haven't had a snowball fight in years!" Shaggy exclaimed. "Can Scoob and I join?"

Sure.” Marybelle said” there’s a pile of snowballs to my left. Shaggy that will be your pile . Scooby the pile over there is yours. Just like the girls, your game will be first to 50a hit to the head is 3 points neck to waist is 2 points and below the waist is 1. Tails in Scoobys case will count as 1, unless he is hit in the rear part, in which case it is 2 points. Each throw 10 balls then report your scores for the round. No cheating , “boys.” Marybelle chuckled.”Shaggy you will start at the railing over there, Scooby you will be right here. Grab some snow and start throwing!”
- Thank you ladies.” Mr Wiley said.” I am a touch nervous, I must admit. First, if you will be able to reach her. Second, if she will come. And third.. well that she will even remember me…

"Snowball fight? You bet we're in!" Scrappy called out, running outside. Matches finished drying the dishes then snuck outside, blowing a bit of fire into the air and grinning. Fred was already outside, devising a Rube-Goldberg contraption for automatically tossing snowballs when someone tripped a wire. He couldn't quite get it right though. "Okay, when somebody steps over that wire..." he said as Scrappy accidentally tripped the trap. Scrappy didn't even notice as a large bucket of premade snowballs came rolling down a hill toward Fred. He and some of the others began to run. Matches caught up with the action and warmed up his pilot light. Standing in front of the snowball avalanche, he blew a flame that cut right through most of the moving snow, leaving nothing but water behind. One snowball did hit Dusk right in the face. "I'm not one for snowball fights, but come back here Scrappy!" she called out, scooping up some snow. Missy and the others could be heard trying to explain the rules, even with all the commotion. Inside, Luna and some of the others were heating up hot chocolate for the others.
"I think it needs a little more cocoa," Daphne commented, setting down a coffee mug on the table.
"Maybe even some cinnamon and chili pepper," Flim-Flam suggested. "We always add those when it's really cold in Ursolvania".

"I think I'll sit this one out. I'm not much for snowball fights either." Thorn responded, as she went in to help the others prepare the hot chocolate.
"Like, oh boy, this is a huge pile!" Shaggy exclaimed, looking at the gigantic heap of snowballs in front of him. As he was looking over his pile, Scooby unexpectedly hit him in the arm with a snowball.
"Rehehe. Rotcha, Raggy!" Scooby chuckled.
"Like, come back here, Scoob!" Shaggy teased, as he began to chase Scooby with a large snowball from his pile. To his surprise, Scooby managed to hit him with another snowball that he had in his paw whilst Shaggy was chasing him.

Dixie laughed as the boat was full of filling throwing snowballs.” How are we going to tell whether a snowball is ours?” She giggled as she ducked a throw from Missy,” we can’t really, now with 20 or so throwing snowballs. Creola said as she threw a curve that caught Dixie in the tail .” Did that hit your butt?” Creola asked “ No just the outer tip.” Dixie said, shaking her tail to wring out the water” Ok, then that’s just 1 point” Creola said writing down a 1. She had made a numbered list of 50 so far she had thrown 31 snowballs and scored hits on 17. Of those , 6 were 1 points. 9 were 2 points and 2 were 3, meaning Creola had 30 points. Dixie and Missy were close behind her with Missy having 29 points and Dixie had 28. Dixie ran down the stairs seeking Missy ,who was hiding behind the corner switching out snowballs as a few had fallen apart in her claws.

Shaggy continued chasing Scooby with a snowball, but Scooby continued to dodge his attacks. He tossed another one that logistically should have hit Scooby's head, but Scooby ducked just in time and narrowly missed it.
"Rissed re!" Scooby taunted playfully.
"Like, I won't miss this time!" Shaggy exclaimed, throwing a snowball on a curve. Scooby ducked his head, but the snowball suddenly curved the other direction and hit him in the back of the neck. "Like, gotcha, Scoob!"
"Raw, shucks!" Scooby lamented.

"You won't have to worry about either of the first two things, Mr. Wiley. We're always spot on with our accuracy." Sybella responded. "We unfortunately can't guarantee the third one, though."

Remember to keep track of your score. So that was 2 points for you Shaggy. A little higher and it would have been 3.” Marybelle said. Dixie and Missy both hit Creola at the same time Dixie hit her in the right chest area and Missy nailed her in the rear.” 2 points for both of you.” Creola said. After 5 rounds I think I’m still ahead. I have 44.” That 2 gets me to 44 too.” Missy said I have 42 after that hit.” Dixie .” Thenin all likelihood the 6th round will be the last.” Missy said, Dixie needs 8 points. While you and I need 6 each Creola.” Could we take a 5 minute break? Dixie asked.” I need to use the girls room.” Of course Dix. The closet one is right in that door there to your right.” Missy said

In the kitchen, everyone there worked to make the best hot chocolate as possible. Matches even headed back inside to heat the pot to the exact temperature with his fire breath. Fred headed inside for some hot chocolate, but not before a snowball hit him from behind. "Actually, I'll be right back..." he smirked as he quickly ran back outside. Scrappy was busy trying to improve Fred's contraption.
"And there it goes!" he said as a cannonball-sized snowball went flying off into the distance. "Uh-oh, watch out Uncle Scooby! That one wasn't aimed for..." he called out.

"Ruh roh!" Scooby exclaimed, as a snowball hit him directly in the face and he tumbled to the ground.
"Like, zoinks, looks like you got hit pretty hard, Scoob! You okay?" Shaggy asked.
"Reah, ri'm rokay." Scooby said, getting up after recovering for a moment."
"Like, who gets that point?" Shaggy asked. "Fred because it was his contraption, or Scrappy because he accidentally launched the snowball?"
-
Meanwhile, Thorn finished making another mug of hot chocolate, and set it on the counter for Matches.
"Here's another one for you when you're done with the one you have, Matches." Thorn informed.

Since it was Fred’s snowball and contraption, the points go to him. 3 points to Fred.” Marybelle said. So far boys Scooby has 38 points and Shaggy has 22. He’s getting the better of you Shaggy.” The southern belle laughed

"Like, not for long!" Shaggy teased, as he ran back to his pile and grabbed another snowball. Scooby promptly did the same. Both prepared to ambush each other with their arms at the ready.
"On your marks, get set..." Shaggy and Scooby both said together, as they counted down to the ambush.
At that moment, Scooby threw another snowball before Shaggy could say "go." It hit Shaggy squarely in the stomach.
"Like, oh man! I shouldn't have waited." Shaggy lamented.
