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.

The Focus Is On Hocus Pocus For Halloween

It's fun to see that Disney's Hocus Pocus (1993) has taken to the full moon-lit skies as a fan-favorite, especially during Halloween time. And that of course means some fun merch and tempting tie-ins. Box Lunch offers a line-up of delicious Hocus Pocus memorabilia, including a game that has gotta be fun to play on Halloween night (or any night). One of my favorite websites/blogs, Dinosaur Dracula (if you haven't visited this spectacular site full of fun videos, photos and finds, hop on your vacuum cleaner and fly over there right now), has spotlighted Hocus Pocus cookies, an unexpected but perfect Halloween treat. And at his Dinosaur Dracula Instagram account, Mad Matt features a Carvel ice-cream treat themed to the cult favorite. I love the cartoony art of the silly-but-sinister Sanderson sisters used on all three of these themed examples. Enjoy these wonderfully witchy finds as part of our Countdown to Halloween 2020 celebration. And be sure and check out the Hocus Pocus article I wrote for D23

We watched Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban a couple weekends ago and made the Hocus Pocus cookies. They were quite good. It was nice having some oatmeal cookies that weren't tainted by raisins. They are a lot better than your average premade/ bake yourself cookies.
