Disney and
the Evil Kingdom
Founded in 1923, the Walt Disney Studios has produced
numerous cartoon and live-action films that have turned into rides in the Disney
theme parks (1). The Disney Company had a net worth of $103.96 billion in 2013 and
raked in $42.84 billion of annual sales (2).
This massive company has had a large impact on the lives of
hundreds of millions of people around the world. In 2013, 132.5 million guests
enjoyed the 11 Disney resorts and parks around the world (3). Kids and
adults enjoy the Magic Kingdom and the various themes in the Disney resorts,
but there is a dark aspect to Disney that many do not understand.
Walt Disney and Magic
Walt Disney had a love for magic and fantasy which could
clearly be seen in the Disney cartoons he produced, such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The
film includes a lot of magic: a magic mirror, an evil witch, magic curses (a
poisoned apple that puts a death curse which can only be lifted by a kiss), and
a magic kiss that awakens Snow White (5). This may all seem
harmless, but it is not. Magic spells, curses, magic mirrors, etc. are real and
are used by witches today.
Real witches today use mirrors for “scrying” or gaining
special knowledge and fortune-telling (4). The evil witch from the Disney
film used her magic mirror also for “scrying” or gaining special knowledge
about who was the “fairest in the land.”
Practitioners in “black magic” cast spells (known as curses)
intended to harm other people. A spell (and a curse) is a spoken formula that
causes or influences a desired outcome (4). The apple given to Snow White
contained a curse that could only be broken by a magic kiss.
This may seem strange to you that we are talking about fairy
tales as if they were real, but the truth is that fairy tales are drawn from
occult knowledge and are based on real occult practices. The Grimm brothers
published a volume called Household
Stories by the Brothers Grimm. One of these fairy tales is called “Roland”,
which is a prime example of witchcraft. In “Roland”, a girl uses an evil
witch’s magic wand to fight the witch, who happens to be her evil stepmother. (8).

Disney carries this occult theme through most of his cartoons
and movies. In Fantasia (1940), Mickey Mouse dons a wizard’s hat and cloak. He
begins performing occultic feats such as controlling water with magic and
magically causing a broom to start moving. In the same sequence (The Sorcerer’s
Apprentice), Mickey dreams that he is a powerful sorcerer or wizard controlling
the stars, planets, and water (6).
Sorcerers today can perform “magic” which involves
levitation, or moving objects from a distance. An Encyclopaedia of Occultism defines levitation as: “Levitation: A
term in use among spiritualists to denote the raising in the air of the human
body or other objects without visible means...” (7).
Sorcery is an Abomination
God’s Word, the Bible, says this about sorcery:
