So my brain has been thinking of Cresecent moon academy again (my twst all girl fan school) and I redid some of my dorm leaders (lesser known villains tbh)
Here are the dorm leaders (no names yet I’m still working on that) and who they’re twisted from
———
Headless Horseman (The adventures of Ichabod and mr toad) - Dorm is probably like a graveyard and woodland area mixed into one
I’d say it’s more like a cabin in the woods
Firebird (Fantasia) - Dorm is more like a rocky hill with lava fountains and waterfalls
dorm would be maybe hidden in the rock face
Madame Medusa (The Rescuers) - A large antique mansion on a moat (still workshopping that) inside it’s a lot more cosy a grand full of jewels
Bill Sykes (Oliver and Company) - More like a office building with a very sleek design so like a dorm that feels more like an apartment block
Professor Ratigan (Great mouse detective) - A large library/conference hall esque dorm very grand and old oak wood esque
Prince John (Robin Hood) - Dorm is a freaking castle tbh
Sabor (Tarzan) - Lush rainforest with beautiful greenery around the tree house dorm
——
Let me know if you want more of this!!

Good afternoon fellow sleepyheads. It’s your friendly, neighborhood admin here to make a blog-wide address. It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, but now’s a good a time as any.
You’ve probably noticed that many of my recent posts here have been tagged with: Sleepy Halloween. Well, that’s because this month marks the 75th anniversary of my all time favorite Disney movie: The Adventures of Ichabod & Mr. Toad.
My dad and I watch it every year for Halloween. The fact that it’s now been 75 years since this masterpiece graced our screens is nothing short of a miracle. The artwork, animation, and above all: the music. If there’s one thing this movie was known for above all else is it’s catchy rhythmic tunes. All thanks to the legendary Bing Crosby.
But what really seals this movie for me is it’s actual villain: The Headless Horseman. He’s the scariest Disney villain of all time! So much so that parents to this very day still call the company and complain about how scary he is to their kids. Now that’s a legacy!
In honor of said legacy, I’ve been uploading only the finest Sleepy Hollow pics from all across my socials. Then, come Halloween day, I’ll be uploading a brand new pic and a link to the unofficial season 5 fanfic of Sleepy Hollow itself. I had been meaning to do it last year but never found the time to do so. Well, now seems like the perfect time to get it done. You’re really going to like them; guaranteed. Until then, happy almost Halloween 🎃

Who is the best Disney villain? Part one.
Saludos Amigos (1942), The Three Caballeros (1944), Make Mine Music (1946), Fun and Fancy Free (1947), and Melody Time (1948) did not have any villains so I had to leave them out.

I got a little guy his name is Fintan Killoigh! He’s twisted from the Headless Horseman and just feared around campus by most everyone. He’s a soft spoken guy but has the capability to be scary as fuck! 
Fintan is a dullahan-puca hybrid (from what i’ve read the headless horseman is believed to be inspired by the dullahan) and a second year student in Diasomnia. I don’t see many people mention the Headless Horseman let alone the Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad so he’s a fun guy to talk about with people.

Voiceplay-adjacent Visuals: The Headless Horseman
As IF I, a certfied Geoff Castellucci Stan, wasn't going to talk about any of his solo cover videos! I'm not gonna talk about all of them (though I can be tempted into doing more if there are ones I skipped that you want me to talk about!), maybe only like 45% of them or so, including all four of his Halloween uploads - the first of which is what we're starting off with!
Geoff's cover of The Headless Horseman was uploaded on the 11th of October, 2020, and is actually only Geoff's third song cover uploaded on his channel (after Bare Necessities and Blackbird). The song is from the 1949 Disney film The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr Toad, which is actually two stories in one: the first being about Mr Toad (an animated adaptation of The Wind In The Willows), and the second being about Ichabod (an animated adaptation of The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow, a story which Geoff actually did a full narration of on his channel back in October last year), and the latter is of course the section that this song stems from. But enough background info for the time being; let's get into this!
Tumblr media
Neat set design, very spooky! Apparently this was filmed at Geoff's parents' house, and this is what he had to say about it in the description: "I filmed this at my folks house... IS ANYONE ELSE TERRIFIED THAT THEY JUST HAD ALL THIS STUFF LYING AROUND?! I mean... i thought I knew those people. My life is a lie..." 😂😂
(Well I guess having a love for Halloween and spooky stuff is apparently a genetic trait for the Castelluccis! 😁)
Tumblr media
*deep evil laughter*
(Geoff does evil/creepy laughter in a fair few videos across the two channels - he seems awfully comfortable doing it! 😝)
Also cool ghostly fade-in effect for "Lead Singer Geoff" here!
Tumblr media
Geoff had fun with the visual effects for this one, as I shall further display in this post!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are only 3 frames of motion blur between the two frames here, but it absolutely works. Just enough to make it look deliberate and as if he/his character actually moved from point A to point B super quickly.
Tumblr media
"and some with fangs, about this size!"
(You would know a thing or two about long fangs, wouldn't ya, Geoff? 😉)
Won't post a screencap because I can't get a good one, but the little moment with floating pumpkin face thing is pretty neat (on the line "when he goes a joggin, 'cross the land, holding his noggin in his hand, demons take one look and groan, and hit the road for parts unknown")
Tumblr media
"well that was unexpected"
(Frankly, a little bit of a mild reaction to three disembodied heads suddenly singing backup for you, but I guess it can't be much weirder than having them there in the first place! 😆)
(Also the Disembodied Geoff Heads having their hair be tied/pulled back made a lot more sense after I watched Golden Hour (which I say a little bit about in the post for that video as well).
Geoff assured people in the description that "no Geoff's had their hair cut for this performance" 😄
(Oh and I know I'm not meant to talk about vocals, but I feel like I'd be doing the video a disservice if I didn't mention the clever detail of how the Geoff Heads only sing in "head voice" for the song!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now this was a really cool/creative visual effect. No clue what it's called or how to describe it really, but it further makes him seem like a ghost/phantom/spirit in this video
Tumblr media
Pfft, what're you reading there, Geoff? 😂
(Also I just spotted the necklace!)
Tumblr media
Is it just me or does Geoff have a thing for making his eyes look different in videos, whether with contacts or post-production effects? 😄
(Quite frankly if there's any video that proves that Geoff's not actually human, it's this one /j 😝)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"You cannot reason, with aaaaaa h e e e a a d d l e e s s s s
m a a a a n n n n"
Tumblr media
Amazing, fantastic, always such a fun cover to listen to, we stan forever!
In the movie, the song is sung by the character of Brom Bones, who is voiced by Bing Crosby (who also serves as the narrator for both stories in the movie), but the soundtrack/album version of the song was sung by a dude by the name of Thurl Ravenscroft, whom you might know as the original voice of Tony the Tiger (the Frosted Flakes mascot), as well as the original singer of the song "You're A Mean One, Mr Grinch". Thurl was a fairly notable bass singer back in the day and is one of Geoff's idols/inspirations, and honestly, I think Geoff did the guy proud. In fact I would even say that Geoff is the modern-day equivalent of Thurl Ravenscroft! And I just can't get enough <3

I've spent the last few weeks creating a Twisted Wonderland OC and here is the random process I went through because I'm a former design kid and am kind of conditioned to go through some kind of process.
Tumblr media
To sum it down I scavenged for a Disney villain and rested on The Headless Horseman since he's technically a Disney villain in The Legend of Sleepy Hollows and The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr Toad.
(Sorry if its hard to read my handwriting)
Tumblr media
I didn't write down my brainstorm and kept all of that internally, but I was debating whether I should make my guy a fae or human. Along with hairstyle ideas and in different angles.
(I like to sketch in different colours for different parts of the body)
Tumblr media
Three outfits away and there colour palettes were pretty hard to come up with and I ended up searching gothic and hunter esc palettes for ideas. I decided with the first outfit.
Tumblr media
This is what the text says for the expressions notes since I honestly can't read it even zoomed in:
Smiling Always a mischievous/evil smile. Has trouble smiling truthfully.
Board Common expression. Hard to distinguish whether he’s being genuine or not.
Annoyed Has a hard time repressing his ticked emotions. Rather strange sharp teeth on his right side and regular teeth the next.
Sad Tear ducks are probably dry from years of tears he's shed. Crying hurts his face because of his scars.
Surprised Surprised Rarely surprised. More shocked than surprised.
Unfazed Often seen when the Mayor tries to act' hip' with the younger kids. Mostly seen when accompanying the Mayor.
Tumblr media
"Astaroth is a relatively quiet and responsible figure in the town, he relies great advice for kids because of his experience. Though he has a strong hatred towards humans from years of abuse and discrimination from his magic and being a fae. For his crimes in Briar Valley, he was cursed with permanent scars and injuries that can never heal with burning pain."
Unique Magic: "Phantom Wonderer" - Able to turn his body invisible and phasing through physical objects. Additionally can give others that same ability by keeping a hold of them, whether they be living or inanimate.
Curse: "Burned Remains" - Cursed by Malleficia, he's forced to keep his scars and injuries with a burning sensation. Scars that can't heal and or kill him, burning pain for all the injuries he's accumulated.
(P.s: Astaroth lives in a town I made named 'Backwoods Valley' in Shaftlands)

kicks down your door like that one big bird meme bc i am here to talk VILLAINS!! some of my fave Disney Villains, antagonists, even anti-heroes, in no particular order: Cruella, Ursula, Hades, Headless Horseman, Horned King, Sheriff of Nottingham, Madame Medusa, Alameda Slim, Honest John & Gideon, Helga Sinclair, Silver, Nathaniel Flint, Yzma, Queen of Hearts, & Mad Madam Mim, to name a few off the top of my head. i am aware of your faves ofc BUT who are some you wish were more appreciated? - 🐞
NICE PICKS! Oh, I love a lot of those ones too, if not all ^^ I have a question for you though!- when you say 'The Headless Horseman'- do you mean the one from The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr Toad, or from Sleepy Hollow?? I'm sure @marinerainbow will also be curious XD
Oooh, which ones do I wish were more appreciated...
Evil Queen: I know she's not really underrated... but I feel like most people consider her to be not as cool as Maleficent, or plain- and Mal is cool, but the Evil Queen is our OG insane witch bitch and deserves more respect then that! XD
PERCIVAL C MCLEACH!!: For obvious reasons 😅
Lady Tremaine: Similar to Hilda. People know who she is but they don't really know her name.
Who do you think is criminally underrated? ^^

Fifteen Days of Disney Magic - Number 14
Welcome to Fifteen Days of Disney Magic! In honor of the company’s 100th Anniversary, I am counting down my Top 15 Favorite Movies from Walt Disney Animation Studios! Our newest entry is a film that gives us two fabulous characters for the price of one! Number 14 is…The Adventures of Ichabod & Mr. Toad.
Tumblr media
This movie may or may not be a less surprising entry than my previous choice, but it’s nonetheless worthy of placement. Just like “Fun & Fancy Free,” this was one of Disney’s 1940s “package features,” which acted as anthology films featuring two or more cartoon shorts combined into one picture. Most people agree that, of all the package films Disney released during this time, “The Adventures of Ichabod & Mr. Toad” is arguably the best one. As you can probably guess, I agree wholeheartedly. “Fun & Fancy Free” I love primarily because it’s such a nostalgic movie for me; it’s just a film that influenced me a lot and which I still have a massive soft spot for. “Ichabod & Mr. Toad” has that distinction, too, but it’s also a bit different. The movie combines a short version of “Wind in the Willows” with another cartoon based on “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” The framing device is a mysterious library, where two unseen narrators – one voiced by Basil Rathbone, and one voiced by Bing Crosby – declare they want to showcase two of their favorite “fabulous characters” from literature. One chooses Mr. Toad as his subject, while the other chooses Ichabod Crane. It’s pretty basic, but it’s effective: it ties the stories together both thematically and in terms of mood without getting in the way of the focus of each portion. It's honestly kind of bizarre how complete the film feels, because not only are Kenneth Graham’s and Washington Irving’s undisputed masterpieces INCREDIBLY different, on many levels, but the way the shorts treat them is “coincironically” quite different, too. “Sleepy Hollow” is actually REMARKABLY close to its source material. Disney doesn’t soften up the characters, nor even remove all traces of the strange ambiguity that makes this ghostly tale such a great work of art. Indeed, even the language is mostly taken straight from Irving’s pages, and very little from the story is lost. “Wind in the Willows” is the opposite: it actually changes quite a few things from the story, and – being only about a half hour in length – it also has to cut out a lot of the book. The original story was essentially a two-part piece, with the first half of the novel focused on Mole and Rat, and the second half focused on Toad. The short focuses pretty much entirely on Toad’s half of the tale…which, to be fair, is generally considered to be the best part of the book.
What manages to make this film feel more whole, in my opinion, is that for as radically different as the two stories are in a lot of ways, not to mention the ways they are handled separately…not only are both tales presented as representations of literature, which helps in terms of the framing setup, but they also do have sort of an interesting comparison in tone. Both are stories that combine darkness and light: “Wind in the Willows,” on the one hand, features talking animals and zany antics abounding, but it also features characters being thrown in the tower of London, being shot at on steam trains, nearly drowning to death…the list goes on. There’s this dark edge that runs underneath the silly surface. “Sleepy Hollow” is exactly the same: underneath Bing Crosby’s showstopping tunes and the cartoonish shenanigans Ichabod gets up to, there’s an ominous undercurrent, which foreshadows the climactic and frightening final confrontation with the fabled Headless Horseman. This movie introduced me to both these stories, and when I think of either one, I tend to think of the Disney version(s) above all the rest. “Sleepy Hollow,” in particular, has become one of my favorite stories of all time, and I still say the Disney version is one of the best interpretations of the tale, as well as one of my favorites. I’ve already written a play based on that story, and I actually do have thoughts about writing a stage adaptation of Mr. Toad’s story, too, if I can ever figure it out. That, alone, should give you an idea of how influential the movie was on me as a person, and it’s telling that I make a point of watching not just the latter half but the whole picture at least once every year…in fact, I usually watch it around this VERY time of year…
…In fact, after posting this…I think I will watch it today. I do so love this movie. The countdown continues tomorrow with my 13th Favorite Disney Movie! HINT: It Is the Source of Disney’s Anthem.

(What if) DISNEY × MARVEL THE MASTERS OF DESPAIR PART 1
Tumblr media
JAFAR + MYSTERIO = VISIERIO
(Aladdin)
Tumblr media
The casting of this one came about quite quickly. Jafar himself is very mysterious (intentionally hiding his true nature from those around him) and is pretty adept at illusions and small-scale magic, like hypnosis and smoke bombs. Quentin Beck is also a bitter failed actor who turned to villainy, in the same way that Jafar begrudges his own position.
STROMBOI + PURPLE MAN = PUPPET MASTER
(Pinocchio)
Tumblr media
I’ve always found Purple Man (AKA Zebediah Kilgrave) to be a particularly chilling and interesting Marvel villain. His ability to control the actions of those around him and have them obey his every whim makes him incredibly dangerous and difficult to defeat. Stromboli seemed like the perfect choice for the role - not only is he extremely subjugating and controlling as a person, but is also quite literally a puppet master, which is a perfect metaphor for such a power. (In fact, a lot of promotional material for Kilgrave shows him controlling Marvel heroes like marionettes!)
MAD MADAM MIM + AGATHA HARKNESS = MIRIAM MADNESS
(The Sword in the Stone)
Tumblr media
Agatha Harkness has become a key player in both Marvel Comics and the MCU. Since Mim is the closest thing to a true “witch” among the Disney Villains (and is also pretty loved and iconic in her own right) the casting couldn’t have really gone any other way. It’s also interesting that there seems to be two versions of Agatha in the comics: an “old witchy” form and a “young hot” form, which is also the case for Mim. I’ve gone for the classic version here.
CLAYTON + KRAVEN THE HUNTER = CLAYTON THE HUNTER
(Tarzan)
Tumblr media
Clayton seemed like a natural fit for Kraven the Hunter - both are skilled hunters who have travelled to the jungles of Africa. While there, Sergei Kravenov comes across a voodoo witch, who gives him a herbal potion that provides him enhanced strength and speed - what if William Clayton discovered something similar?
HEADLESS HORSEMAN + NIGHTMARE = NIGHT TERROR
(The Adventures of ichabod and Mr Toad)
Tumblr media
Nightmare may not have appeared in the MCU just yet, but he’s a pretty big deal in the comics and his live-action debut has been anticipated by fans for some time! He’s the ruler of the Dream Dimension, who prays on the fears of mortals and traps them in their worst nightmares. The Headless Horseman is a villain we know very little about, but what we DO know is that he tortures innocent souls on Halloween night. Marvel lore suggests that the barriers between the Dream Dimension and our own are weaker at Halloween - so, could these two be one and the same? Nightmare is often depicted holding a skull in his hand, or riding his demon horse Dreamstalker, so the casting felt pretty right here.
QUEEN OF HEARTS + KINGPIN = QUEENPIN
(Alice in Wonderland)
Tumblr media
This was another casting that seemed pretty straightforward. She’s large in stature, she’s extremely ill-tempered and violent, she’s the female equivalent of a KING - and on top of that, mobsters often use casinos as a front for their money laundering, and she’s literally a playing card! It all just seems to fit.
GOVERNOR RATCHIFFE + IRON MONGER = GOLD MONGER
(Pocahontas)
Tumblr media
Being the original MCU villain, I just had to include Iron Monger in my lineup, and this casting just felt right. Governor Ratcliffe is obsessed with gold and even fantasises about wearing it, so it makes sense for him to have a mechanised suit made from the stuff! Also, being the coloniser that he is, it wouldn’t be out of character for him to rip off Iron Lady’s suit and claim the idea as his own, in the same way Stane wanted to do with Tony Stark’s.
URSULA + DR OCTOPUS = OCTOPUS
(The Little Mermaid)
Tumblr media
Could this casting really have gone any other way? A literal octopus lady as Doctor Octopus? What if, in this reality, Ariel’s mother had survived, and the little mermaid was allowed to visit the surface (and given powers)? This would make it harder for Ursula to pursue her, so she’d have to build some apparatus to help her move around on land.
WILLITE THE GIANT + GALATICUS = GIGANTUS
(Fun and Fancy free)
Tumblr media
Willie may be one of Disney’s more niche villains, but he’s definitely their BIGGEST bad by quite a margin, so it made sense to cast him as Marvel’s gargantuan “Devourer of Worlds”. Not only that, he’s also an enemy of Mickey & Friends, and since Galactus is an enemy of the Fantasic Four, this is a rare instance of the heroes and villains actually lining up in this universe!
