Whatever happened to The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.
Does anyone else remember this classic Disney Film from 1949? It hardly ever gets mentioned even though it was based off of 2 pieces of classic American Literature, “The Wind in the Willows” & “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.”
This was Walt Disney’s 11 Animated Masterpiece and featured two short films in one. It had the classic Technicolor look of other Disney movies from that era. Later Disney separated the story of Ichabod Crane from the companion Mr. Toad film and sold and marketed it separately starting in 1958.
Here is a video preview:
Also here is a Wikipedia breakdown of both films in case you have never seen or heard of them.
The Adventures of Mr. Toad is based on Kenneth Grahame‘s The Wind in the Willows (narrated by Basil Rathbone). In this story, the charismatic J. Thaddeus Toad, Esq., is the happy-go-lucky, wealthy proprietor of Toad Hall. Toad believes in fun, adventure and travelling to “Nowhere in Particular”; He has built a great deal of debt from disregarding the financial responsibilities of his insatiable love for transportation vehicles, such as gypsy carts and (subsequently) the newfangled motor car. His friends Ratty (Water Rat), Moley (Mole) and Angus MacBadger, try to help him when his mania leads to the loss of the deed to Toad Hall, and a charge of car theft. Toad is thrown into prison due to the perjured testimony of Mr. Winkie the tavernkeeper. Later, Toad’s loyal horse Cyril Proudbottom pays a visit and assists him in escaping. Toad makes good his escape and manages to get back to Ratty’s home on Christmas Eve. There Toad, Ratty and Moley are informed by MacBadger that evil Winkie (who sold Toad the car), and several criminal weasels, have taken over Toad Hall. With his friends’ aid, Toad redeems his good name by recovering the deed to the estate from the very hands of its captors. Toad, touched by the loyalty and kindness of his friends, promises to reform; but is shown (at Ratty, Moley and MacBadger’s New Year celebrations) relapsing by recklessly flying a 1908 biplane along with Cyril at the end of the story.
The story of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman, based on Washington Irving‘s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (narrated by Bing Crosby). The gangly and lanky Ichabod Crane is the new schoolmaster in Sleepy Hollow. His somewhat odd behavior makes him the ridicule of the rambunctious and robust town bully Brom Bones. Despite his odd appearance, Ichabod quickly proves to be a ladies’ man charming all the eligible local ladies. Finally, however, Ichabod discovers the local town beauty, Katrina Van Tassel. Katrina is the beautiful young daughter of Baltus Van Tassel, the wealthiest farmer in the area, and Brom’s intended. Katrina is a coquette by nature, but sees Ichabod as an opportunity to break from the monotony of Brom scaring away every other potential suitor. Ichabod has his eye on the Van Tassel wealth, and is infatuated by Katrina’s beauty and grace as well. After a number of comically unsuccessful efforts by Brom to dispose of Ichabod, including a scene at the Van Tassel’s Halloween party where he tries to switch his short overweight dance partner Tilda with Katrina, the situation changes when Brom decides to take advantage of Ichabod’s strong belief in superstitions. Brom musically tells the tale of the Headless Horseman to frighten the teacher. That Halloween night, Crane’s lonely ride home becomes exceedingly frightening because of his exposure to the possibility of encountering the ghost. The atmosphere of fear increases in intensity, until it breaks the tension at a false alarm, whereupon Ichabod and his horse laugh hysterically in relief. Immediately, the true Headless Horseman appears, laughing maniacally, riding a large black horse that bears a strong resemblance to the one owned by Brom. Then follows a spectacular chase scene wherein the visually impressive Horseman pursues Ichabod with wild abandon, only to be deterred when Ichabod crosses a bridge near the local Dutch graveyard (the bridge being the point beyond which the horseman cannot go, according to the tale). The Horseman then hurls his own severed head (shown to actually be a fiery Jack-o-lantern), at Ichabod. The jack-o-lantern is seemingly hurled right at us, bursts into flames as it strikes, and everything is lost to darkness. The next morning, the only things found by the bridge are a shattered pumpkin and Ichabod’s hat. Brom shortly thereafter marries Katrina. It is later rumored that Ichabod married a rich, plump widow with many children (who all resemble Ichabod to an amazing degree), in the next county. But the simple, common denizens of Sleepy Hollow firmly deny this; they all know that Ichabod was spirited away on Halloween Night by the ghoulish Headless Horseman.
Even though these movies were before my time. I remember seeing the Legend of Sleepy Hollow when I was younger (Not sure if it was on a Disney Sunday night special or on VHS somewhere) and riding on Mr Toad’s ride at Walt Disney World. Which is no longer there and will be a topic in a later article.
This is a true Disney classic in a time when Walt Disney was struggling. He would later release Cinderella which would turn things around for him and start his decent on other animated films we know and love.
You can find this film everywhere even on some Tube releated sites (wink) or to purchase on DVD for your Disney Collection. When my little one gets a little older we are going to make this a Halloween tradition to watch this movie and the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.
I hope that through these articles I am able to spark a distant memory of Disney when you were younger. Disney was apart of my life growing up and I like remembering bits and pieces of the past. They made me into the Disney Nerd I am today. See you next time!

The recovering teen heartthrob continues his career makeover, signing on to play a drug runner in a remake of the Swedish thriller Snabba Cash. Efron will also produce the flick (loosely translated as Easy Money) for Warner Bros.
The film follows three interconnected stories set in the world of drugs and organized crime. At the center of it all is a hustler turned money launderer (Efron) who hopes to get rich by smuggling cocaine for a mob boss.
If nothing else, it will make for interesting conversation at the High School reunion.
San Antonio tomato grower Desert Glory Ltd. is teaming up with Radio Disney on a new marketing campaign that will offer consumers free digital music downloads with the purchase of NatureSweet Cherub bite-sized tomatoes.
Financial terms of the campaign were not disclosed.
Desert Glory grows and packages sweet Cherub tomatoes in a re-sealable fruit-bowl container under the brand name NatureSweet Tomatoes. Cherubs are twice as sweet as the average tomatoes and are being marketed as a healthy snack for children. Radio Disney reaches a nationwide audience of 22.2 million listeners, mostly children and tweens. Packages will carry a code that parents can use to download music. Radio Disney will promote NatureSweet on its stations and Web site (RadioDisney.com).
As part of this multi-faceted marketing campaign, Desert Glory will sponsor an interactive talent contest and events in 18 markets throughout the country to give away NatureSweet product samples. Some of these top markets include Los Angeles, Chicago and San Francisco. The company will also support Radio Disney’s programming feature, “N.B.T.: Making It Big.” N.B.T. stands for Next Big Thing and Radio Disney is searching for the next kid singing sensation. Finalists could land a recording contract with Hollywood Records.
As part of the NatureSweet online talent contest, children aged 6 to 16 will be asked to submit videos showcasing their natural talents inspired by the Cherub tomatoes. Beginning April 18, participants will upload their video entries to the NatureSweet Cherubs Web site (www.cherubstomatoes.com) with a chance to win a trip for four to Los Angeles to attend Radio Disney’s Allstar Weekend for N.B.T. Visitors to the site can also vote on their favorite kid performers.
Talking to Food Network superstar Guy Fieri is equivalent to running a 100-yard dash. The conversation is an energizing sprint that leaves you breathless and thirsty when the chat is over.
During a break from filming a “Diners, Drive-ins and Dives” episode in Kansas City, Fieri and I talked about his upcoming cooking demonstrations at Disney’s California Food & Wine festival. The 5th annual event kicks off Friday, and Fieri’s two-day appearance will certainly be a highlight of the foodie event, which runs April 16 through May 31.
In our short chat, Fieri talked about his favorite new Orange County eats and relished in debunking stories that he walks around in a food coma due to his so-called addiction to junk food.
“This is the one (story) that kills me,” he says. “I’m not a fried food fan.”
Maybe so. But the 210-pound chef with spiky blond hair does watch every bite he eats. After all, he makes a living gobbling mouthwatering comfort foods prepared in dives across the country.
Read on to learn what he had to say about Orange County food fans, his recent Triple D stops in Orange County and his new network TV game show gig.

This question comes from Kay, who asks “What resort do you think is the best for amenities and features?”
Kay, thanks for your question and for reading the blog. I think the answer depends on what you’re looking for and your own personal taste. If you want convenience, and particularly if you have young children who will be spending a lot of time at the Magic Kingdom, you can’t beat the monorail resorts with easy access to the entire property. If you’re going to the Food and Wine Festival, Yacht and Beach Club Resort and Villas and the Boardwalk Inn and Villas are ideal; you can walk or take a boat to both Epcot and Hollywood Studios. If you’re looking for a lot of pool time, Yacht and Beach Club wins with Stormalong Bay, the most highly rated pool on property and the largest sand bottomed pool in the world. And if you’re looking for a resort with an exotic theme, Animal Kingdom Lodge is a great choice.
Here’s a quick glance at what we’re hearing are guest favorites:
Best for adults traveling without children: Boardwalk Inn: Just a short walk to the nightlife on the Boardwalk and to Epcot, this resort is a fun choice for adults, especially if you’re taking advantage of extra magic hours at Epcot.
Runner up: The Contemporary Resort and Bay Lake Towers. For adults who want to be in the middle of everything, you can’t beat the Contemporary. The pace can be a little frenetic during certain times of times of the day, so if sleeping in is a priority, try not to get a room directly above Chec Mickey’s. Rent bikes, small watercraft, or play volleyball on the beach.
The best for families with young children: The Polynesian. Easy access to the Magic Kingdom, a kids club right at the resort, and a beautifully themed pool. Kids and adults alike love the “volcanic” stream which flows into the larger pool. There’s also great kid-friendly dining right at the resort and you’re only a couple of monorail stops away from some of the best dining on property, including California Grill, Citrocos, Narcooses, and Victoria and Albert’s. The conceierge level is the best in Disney World.
Runner up: Animal Kingdom Lodge. If it were in a more convenient location, it would be my first choice. I love the pool, which is beautifully landscaped and has (in Kidani Village) an incredible water playground area. I think it’s better than Stormalong Bay. Cast members conduct hourly activities for kids all day long. There’s also a three-hour program ($70 per kid) which features a character from the Lion King which teaches kids about African culture through food, games and crafts. Guests can also take a private safari from the lodge ($55 for adults). Plenty of public viewing areas for kids to see the animals on the savannah, so even if you’re not in a savannah view room, you can enjoy it.
Most Romantic: Grand Floridian. There’s a reason why there are so many weddings here and why it’s a prime honeymoon destination. The grounds are beautiful, the service is excellent, and even though it’s close to the Magic Kingdom, it tends to have fewer children, in my opinion, than the other monorail resorts. The spa, located right at the resort, is a favorite spot for some grown up pampering. Two pools, one in the middle of the property and one right on the Seven Seas Lagoon, are both beautifully landscaped. If you’ll be spending a full day at the pool, consider renting a cabana with a fridge, comfy lounge chairs, and an attendant.
Runner up: The Polynesian. Watch the fireworks and stroll along the beach. The exotic theme here makes it another favorite of honeymooners. You can rent bikes, small watercraft, or surry bikes.
Most well-executed theme: Animal Kingdom Lodge. The attention to detail in this resort is incredible, right down to the restaurants which keep the theme going with the food. AKL is worth a visit even if you don’t stay here. Don’t miss out on some of the unique artifacts on display here.
Runner up: The Polynesian. Great attention to detail. The lobby can seem a bit small if you’re used to the grand lobbies you find in newer Disney properties, but you really will feel like you’re in a tropical paradise staying here.
These are my top three personal favorties:
Number 3: Grand Floridian. It’s somewhat popular to bash the Grand on Disney message boards. It’s one of those resorts that everyone thinks they know. After all, you’re bound to pass it on your wat to the Magic Kingdom, so everyone has an opinion. There’s an assumption that it’s frilly and stuffy. And since it’s Disney’s flagship resort, people assume it’s snobby. I don’t think these assumptions could be farther from the truth. The Grand Floridan is a light, airy resort. I like it best during the warmer months when after a hot day in the parks the lobby, which is easily the prettiest on property, is so inviting you barely want to go to your room. You’ll find the same friendly cast members here as elsewhere on property. It’s just a lovely place to stay. There is a child care center and four kids, activities on site which you can register for even if you’re not a guest: The wonderland tea party, a cooking lesson, Perfectly Princess Tea Party (around $225 for one child and adult) and the Pirate Adventure.
Number 2: The Contemporary Resort and Bay Lake Towers: I love the Contemporary and BLT. You can’t beat the location or the proximity to good restaurants: There are three here in the resort, including California Grill, one of the best in Central Florida. One of my favorite things to do on property is walk from the resort to the Magic Kingdom. Of course, you really can’t beat watching the fireworks from your balcony or one of the viewing areas.
Some criticize the lack of theming, but I actually think it’s the most Disney of all the resorts, with its modern architecture and the monorail running right through it. When you think about it, the theme of the Contemporary reflects the optimism and excitement that Walt himself (although he passed away several years before it opened) and the Imagineers felt when it was being built. It’s a little piece of Disney history frozen in time and to me, even if I’m not staying there, no trip is complete without at least a quick visit.
Number 1: Animal Kingdom Lodge. Okay, so I said this was all very subjective and I’m sure some readers will disagree with me, particularly since its considered a “lower” tier deluxe, but I love AKL, not just for the theming, but for the amenities and because it makes me feel like I’m cut off from the rest of Disney property in my own little oasis. Sometimes I like to be in the middle of things, especially on shorter trips. For those times, a resort like BLT is perfect. But when I’m taking a longer trip, especially if it’s with my children, I want peace and quiet at night. Coming back to the resort after a day in the parks is so relaxing. The lights in the lobby are a little low and there’s some quiet music playing in the background. It immediately slows you down from park commando mode to vacation mode. I don’t know of another resort that does such a good job of this.
So, what’s your favorite resort and why?
Have a Disney question? Ask Chip and Co. If we don’t know the answer we’ll make sure we find someone else who can.
