The Chest of Demons is the prison for thirteen evil spirits on The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo.
History[]
In ancient times, 13 spirits terrorized the world and were somehow trapped within the chest by unknown means. The chest was locked away in a crypt of a temple in a remote village in the Himalayas, where it remained for many years and was later found by the two ghosts, Weerd & Bogel. They were unable to open the chest (as it could be opened only by the living), but were able to trick Scooby-Doo and Shaggy into opening it and releasing the demons.
The chest was taken by Scooby and friends, who used it during their adventures to re-imprison the spirits that were released. The former captive spirits tried whatever they could to destroy the chest, hinting that it may be a seal of an incredible power. Although the ghosts were eventually returned to the chest, its fate is unknown. It can be assumed that the chest was hidden by the group or returned to its original location in the dark crypt.
