You’ve wandered into the topsy-turvy world of Tulgey Wood, the blog of writer and historian Jim Fanning. Tulgey Wood celebrates artistry and creativity (and sometimes just plain madness): movies, animation, TV, books, comics—and of course Disney, lots and lots of true-blue, through-and-through Disney, including D23 and Disney twenty-three Magazine, and Sketches Magazine and the Walt Disney Collectors Society. Tulgey Wood is so fun, fascinating and full of frolicsome photos and facts, it’s scary. So wander through the wonder of it all, and enjoy.

Great Pumpkin Fan Club


What would the spooky season be without Linus and his annual pumpkin-patch wait for the Great Pumpkin? That television classic It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown debuted on this date, October 27, in 1966, and Halloween has never been the same. This wonderful Schulz art below (as always click on the image for a larger view) ran in TV Guide to promote the 1971 telecast of this October favorite, only the 6th time it had been broadcast. This animated special has been run (at least once) every Halloween season since 1966. This is another post in the Countdown to Halloween blogathon of which Tulgey Wood is a proud "cryptkeeper."
