Line 165:
** Played (painfully) straight in the first aired episode of ''[[Jonny Quest: The Real Adventures|The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest]]'', featuring a pirate's "ghost" rampaging in the Bermuda area.
* Naturally, this trope was parodied in an early episode of ''[[The Venture Bros]]''.
* ''[[DuckTales (1987)]]'' played with this sometimes (despite the presence of ''real'' supernatural elements in the show's setting). In one episode, Scrooge inherited an ancestor's manor in Scotland, only to find it was "haunted"—by modern druids trying to scare away interlopers from their ancestral ritual site. In another, Scrooge opens a hotel but is plagued by two ghosts: a thief using invisible paint to steal jewels and the paint's inventor trying to get it back.
** These plots were adapted from [[Carl Barks]]'s ''Hound of the Whiskervilles'' and ''The Old Castle's Secret'' (see above).
* An episode of ''[[Invader Zim]]'' featured Dib actually unveiling a hoax about a man who thought he was part chicken, when he was just an insane man in a chicken costume. At the end, he says that paranormal investigators can also debunk hoaxes like this, but the reports misinterpret his message and think that all supernatural claims are hoaxes.
