The legendary Mystery Machine van from the 2002 animated blockbuster Scooby-Doo is now available on AirBnB for three one-night stays, hosted by Shaggy himself. Matthew Lillard, who portrayed Shaggy Rogers in the live-action Scooby Doo remake, is commemorating the film's 20th anniversary by renting out the Mystery Machine to a select lucky fans in Southern California, United States.
The Mystery Machine, a converted Chevy van, is now a time capsule of all things 2002, including Sugar Ray's current album, which you can listen to on a portable CD player, a lava lamp, and a vintage TV for rewatching Scooby Doo throughout your stay.

The classic Mystery Machine van, a tricked-out AirBnB parked in Malibu, California, is sure to transport fans back to the early 2000s with to its Scooby Doo-inspired teal, green, and orange paintwork. Inside, there's a camper-style bedroom with enough space for two and various references to the film's release in 2002.
There's also lots of food. A meal with Shaggy and Scooby's favourite dishes like hot dogs and burgers, popcorn, movie candy, and all the Scooby Snacks will bring back Y2K memories, along with mystery games and a virtual welcome from Lillard as you check in.
"I've been channelling Shaggy since the live-action adaption in 2002, and he's always been a part of me," Lillard said. "I can't wait to welcome guests into the Mystery Inc. gang's world as their Airbnb Host and provide them with a summer vacation they'll never forget... There will be no monsters!" the post added.
