Scooby-Doo! Camp Scare - Characters & Cast

Character Analysis

Fred Jones

Frank Welker

Archetype: The Leader
Key Trait: Enthusiastic

Motivation

To relive his fondest summer camp memories and pass on the traditions of Camp Little Moose to a new generation of campers, ensuring its legacy continues.

Character Arc

Fred's arc is driven by nostalgia and a desire to preserve tradition. He brings the gang to Camp Little Moose, his childhood haven, and is fiercely protective of it. Initially blinded by his idealized memories, he insists on keeping the camp open despite clear danger. His journey involves moving beyond simple nostalgia to active leadership, mentoring the new campers and devising plans to confront the very real threats to his beloved camp.

Velma Dinkley

Mindy Cohn

Archetype: The Sage
Key Trait: Analytical

Motivation

To logically deconstruct the seemingly supernatural events, uncover the historical truth behind the legends, and solve the complex criminal plot.

Character Arc

Velma serves as the primary investigator, piecing together the historical clues about the sunken town of Moose Creek and the gangster's treasure. Her personal arc involves a brief, and unwanted, romantic subplot with Ranger Knudsen. More importantly, she acts as a mentor to Trudy, a fellow tech-savvy introvert, encouraging her to embrace the camp experience and build confidence.

Daphne Blake

Grey DeLisle

Archetype: The Heart
Key Trait: Resourceful

Motivation

To support her friends, protect the young campers, and ensure the group's safety while applying her own skills to solve the mystery.

Character Arc

Daphne displays her resourcefulness and quiet bravery. While initially hesitant about the rustic camp, she quickly adapts. Her arc shows her moving from being 'danger-prone' to actively competent and confrontational, particularly during the underwater fight with the Fishman where she helps Fred. She also shows a brief spark of jealousy towards Jessica, adding a small layer of personal complexity.

Shaggy Rogers

Matthew Lillard

Archetype: The Coward/Fool
Key Trait: Fearful

Motivation

To avoid danger at all costs and find the next meal, a motivation that is consistently challenged by the terrifying monsters haunting the camp.

Character Arc

Shaggy follows his classic arc of being driven by fear and hunger. However, Camp Scare allows both him and Scooby moments of genuine bravery, often spurred by the need to protect others or when their own fear is momentarily overcome by adrenaline. Their arc is less about change and more about reinforcing the idea that even the most cowardly can be heroic when the situation demands it.

Deacon / Babyface Boretti

Mark Hamill

Archetype: The Trickster/Villain in Disguise
Key Trait: Deceptive

Motivation

To find the long-lost treasure of his former cellmate, gangster Ricky LaRue, which is hidden in the sunken town of Moose Creek. He posed as a camper to get the gang to leave so he and his partner could search for it unimpeded.

Character Arc

Deacon's entire character is an act. He presents as a nerdy, timid camper who is afraid of everything, making him seem like an unlikely threat. His arc is the gradual reveal of his true identity as the ruthless gangster Babyface Boretti. The unmasking of his personality, not just a monster costume, is the film's biggest twist, showing a calculated and deceptive villain who exploited the innocence of the camp setting.
