As Price got older and more burdened with illness, he turned, more and more, voice work. He had always loved doing voice only roles, especially really silly ones. For one season (1985/86), he got to voice a character completely based on himself: Vincent VanGhoul. Along with getting a Scooby series tailored totally around him, he got to work with the likes of Casey Kasem (who a lot people who listened to him on radio's "Top 40" were shocked to find that he had always been the voice of Shaggy), Don Messick--a king amongst cartoon voices and the voice of Scooby.
To All The Ghouls I've Loved Before is the pilot debut of the series. Here The Gang is introduced to the strange like of Flim Flam--a pint sized con man, Bogel & Weerd--2 wanna be bad-ass ghost (they're not!) and VanGhoul himself.
Scooby as a cartoon invention now ranks number one as the most love and lucrative invention of Hanna Barberra. He surpasses even Fred Flintstone in popularity. As a matter of trivia, the gang lets out 13 ghosts, and VanGhoul orders them to recapture them, in the end, though, they only got 11.
Price narrates the intro. Found it on You Tube:
