🔔 *Welcome to the underworld of early Disney animation!* Before Disney became synonymous with fairy tales and family entertainment, its animators were experimenting with some wonderfully strange, spooky, and imaginative storytelling. *Hell's Bells (1929)* is an early entry in Walt Disney's legendary Silly Symphonies series, released on October 30, 1929, just in time for Halloween.
