Shake, Rattle and Roll is a series of animated segments as part of the CB Bears, produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions for NBC's Saturday morning children's programming debuting. It ran in 1977, airing 13 episodes that spanned one season.
The segments were later included as part of Heyyy, It's the King!, after it was departed from the CB Bears series.
The segments center around a trio of ghost, namely Shake, Rattle and Roll, who run a rundown hotel full of ghouls, witches and other spooks.
Other recurring characters include the main antagonist, Sidney Merciless, who seeks closure to the hotel and its occupants, a mouse who constantly pesters the three named Ghost Mouse and a cat who tries to get rid of Ghost Mouse named Poltercat.
While the series never saw a complete series release on home video, three episodes were released on the combination VHS, Scooby-Doo & Friends: Mostly Ghostly back in 1990.
