Plot

In a flashback to 41 B.C., following her losses at the Battle of Actium and Battle of Alexandria, Cleopatra flees to her tomb underneath the Sphinx to bury a treasure, forms an undead army to protect it, and casts a curse for added measure.

In the present, Velma Dinkley works with an archaeological team led by Prince Omar to restore the Sphinx, during which they find an ancient necklace and stumble onto Cleopatra's tomb. Meanwhile, Velma's friends in Mystery Inc. travel to Egypt for a surprise visit. Though their van, the Mystery Machine, breaks down in the desert, they receive help in reaching the Sphinx from Amahl Ali Akbar and his hawk Horus. Upon their arrival, they also encounter Rock Rivers, the host of Fear Facers whose show was recently cancelled after he was caught faking footage and who came to Egypt to investigate Cleopatra's curse. Eventually, the gang reunite with Velma before they are interrupted by a group of treasure hunters led by a heavy-handed archeologist named Dr. Amelia Von Butch. Over Velma's pleas of Cleopatra's curse, which says all who enter will be turned to stone, Amelia's group use explosives to detonate the entrance. Suddenly, a sandstorm forces everyone inside, where Mystery Inc. find a petrified Omar. Despite this, Amelia's group press on while Fred Jones opts to solve the mystery. Velma reluctantly agrees and the gang follow Amelia, only to activate a trap that separates Shaggy Rogers and his dog Scooby-Doo from them.

As the undead army attacks all three groups, Velma is found seemingly petrified. Rivers, Fred, and Daphne Blake retrieve the necklace from her and eventually find Amelia's group, whereupon they are all attacked by Cleopatra, though Fred and Daphne escape outside and reach a bazaar. However, Amelia catches up to them, steals the necklace, and knocks them out. Amahl finds the pair and offers to help them find their friends. Concurrently, Scooby and Shaggy end up in a hidden lost city, where they are mistaken by its inhabitants for their pharaoh, Ascoobis, and his manservant Shagankhamen respectively. While reaping the benefits, the city's leader Hotep arranges to have them fed to the "Spirit of the Sand", but the pair expose it as a giant robot before Fred, Daphne, and Amahl arrive. After exposing Hotep as a civil engineer named Armin Granger, who is wanted for illegally damming the Nile, and seeing him arrested by local authorities, the trio tell Shaggy and Scooby what happened to Velma before Fred formulates a plan to stop Cleopatra.

Returning to the main chamber, Mystery Inc. find Amelia captured by Cleopatra's army while her team has been petrified. Per Fred's plan, Daphne dons a Cleopatra disguise and leads the lost city's citizens into battle against the undead army. In the chaos, Amelia steals Cleopatra's crown, but causes the Nile to burst into the tomb, flushing its riches outside. After subduing Amelia, Mystery Inc. reveal Cleopatra was actually Velma, who worked with Omar and his team to manufacture the curse to scare off treasure hunters, recruited Rivers to help them document the tomb, and created statues of themselves to further the lie.

Afterward, Amelia and her group are arrested while Omar's team finish restoring the Sphinx. Though Shaggy accidentally fires a large firecracker at it and destroys its nose, Omar feels the Sphinx looks better without it.
