First time I saw this I was a kid but it's not a kid's movie despite the Disney name. I wish I could see it in a theater again.

IDK if I've ever seen the entire movie. I remember many parts of it from television as a kid on the Walt Disney show. "Night on Bald Mountain" was my favorite even as a kid.

I wanted to get it on DVD, but it cost $40 at my video store and I never saw a used one on the shelf.

According to IMDb trivia...

Bela Lugosi served as a live-action model for Chernabog, the demon in "Night on Bald Mountain." Lugosi spent several days at the Disney studios, where he was filmed doing evil, demon-like poses for the animators to use as a reference. However, Bill Tytla, the animator in charge of Chernobog, was dissatisfied with Lugosi's performance, and had sequence director Wilfred Jackson pose for the cameras. Thus it was Jackson, not Lugosi, who appeared on-screen as Chernobog.
