Tonight is St. John’s Eve, the night the Slavic deity Chernobog emerges from the Bald Mountain. I just learned Bela Lugosi struck demonic poses for Disney animators for several days as a model for the climactic sequence of “Fantasia.” He was ultimately replaced by Wilfred Jackson. Still, how cool is that?

MOMMY! WHERE’S MICKEY MOUSE?!
