Taking their name from the work of [[Friedrich Nietzsche]], '''Will To Power''' was a [[dance music]] trio from [[Florida]] headed by [[Record producer|producer]] and [[disc jockey | club DJ]] Bob Rosenberg. Additional members were Dr. J and Maria Mendez. Beginning in [[1987]] they began having hits on the [[Hot Dance Music/Club Play]] chart, including two #1's: [[1988]]'s "Say It's Gonna Rain" and "Fading Away" in [[1989]]. Their debut album contained all of their early club hits and ironically, it was a ballad tacked onto the album that became their most successful single. Their medley of [[Peter Frampton]]'s song "Baby, I Love Your Way" and [[Lynyrd Skynyrd]]'s "Freebird" went to #1 on the [[Hot 100]] in 1988.
'''''Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost''''' is a [[direct to video]] animated film released in [[1999]], produced by [[Hanna-Barbera Cartoons]] and based upon their ''[[Scooby-Doo]]'' [[Saturday morning cartoon]]. The Mystery, Inc. gang of Scooby-Doo, Shaggy, Fred, Daphne, and Velma travel to a [[New England]] town called Oakhaven after being invited by horror writer Ben Ravencroft (voiced by [[Tim Curry]]).
By [[1990]] Will To Power was a duo consisting of Rosenberg and vocalist Elin Michaels and they had another Hot 100 Top 10 with a ballad: this time a remake of [[10cc]]'s "I'm Not In Love" (#7).

The gang meets a [[goth]] girl rock band named the '''Hex Girls''' during their investigation, comprised of Luna (voiced by [[Kimberly Brooks]]), Dusk (voiced by [[Jane Wiedlin]]), and Thorn (voiced by [[Jennifer Hale]]). These characters would later reapear in the [[2003]] ''Scooby-Doo'' direct to video film ''Scooby-Doo and the Legend of the Vampire'' and "The Vampire Strikes Back" episode of ''What's New, Scooby-Doo?''.
[[Category: 1999Musical filmsgroup stubs]] ▼The first two-thirds of the film play out like a regular ''Scooby-Doo'' cartoon, with the gang checking out clues & proving that the "ghost" it was just a person in a mask. During the third act, however, it turns out that Ben was lying and his ancestor really ''was'' a witch. The ghost of Sara Ravencroft is brought from the netherworld by Ben, and it turns out that only Thorn, because of her Wiccan heritage, can stop the ghost from acting out her revenge.

Like a number of direct-to-video ''Scooby-Doo'' films released in the late [[1990s]] and early [[2000s]], ''Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost'' features real ghosts instead of simple bad guys in masks. While some viewers dislike this aspect of these films' plots, others welcomed the change. The videos sold well and recieved generally positive reviews in the press.
