Bing Crosby there's an around the campfire feeling to this particular tale known as The Legend of Sleepy Hollow as Ichabod and his trusty tired steed saunter through the forest it's clear there's

grave Mickey's Christmas Carol humbug in this Disney fied Dickens classic it's Christmastime and Scrooge won't share in fact he's the most tight-fisted son of a duck out there but as he glimpses the future he sees his own funeral no one is there and his grave stands open aye no mourners no friends to beat him fair way when the angel come devil pushes him aside hellish flames tickle his tail feathers and our screens are awash with a dangerous red whose only grief is this why you're seven easer the richest man in the cemetery a nightmarish message for kids and grown-ups number eight judge Claude Frollo bursts into Hellfire The Hunchback of Notre Dame Beata Maria you know I am a righteous man while most people would pull petals off daisies humming she loves me she loves me not clothes Frollo goes crazy and gives us this spine-chilling serenade as he marches through the church holding and sniffing Esmeralda shawl it's gothic and oh so ghostly [Music] with a blazing fire and a choir of hooded faceless monks Rollo's infatuation is one we're sure glad we're not the source of [Music] number seven the devilish Chernabog summons evil spirits Fantasia Bald Mountain according to tradition is the gathering place of Satan and his followers the archetype for what a nightmare might look like Fantasia's final scene is perhaps Disney's debut as a purveyor of darkness the wispy

emotional and undoubtedly dark this is one terrifying night on Bald Mountain [Music] number six the Horned Kings undead army the Black Cauldron in this skeletal sequence the Horned King has death at his beck and call as the good guys hang helpless a sacrifice is made and the Black Cauldron pours forth all the darkness it can muster watched over with red pinprick eyes and guided by a voice as sinister as Satan's own the army of the Dead is coming it blurs out our vision and rings in our ears [Music] number five Ursula's demise The Little Mermaid I'm a very busy woman who'd have thought that this sweet sea-bound tale could take such a dark turn first a shark chases Ariel then the king is turned into a wormy something or other and finally Ursula meets her monstrous death well that's

elephant in the room now imagine there's hundreds of them in there pink exactly three Clayton's horrific end Tarzan he could be the missing link to the gorilla nobody likes Clayton he's a posh pompous animal poaching pain in the ass he doesn't understand English I'll make him understand if I can teach your parrot to sing god save the queen I can certainly teach this savage thing a tool but did we see his death coming it's a dark stormy night and our two macho men are fighting it out in the trees Tarzan skill keeps him safe but Clayton is clumsy and he's hung out to dry quite literally as the vine snaps and the dagger falls we're as shocked as we are satisfied [Music] number two lamp-wick becomes an ass Pinocchio I can walk in Pinocchio is quest to become a real boy he inevitably encounters vice and then some a to big monsters after the tough-talking lamp-wick takes one mouthful to many of some bad beer his transformation begins and Pinocchio's innocence ends Koch the [Music]
