'''''Once Upon a Halloween''''' is a 2005 British [[direct-to-video]] [[Animation|animated]] [[fantasy film]] featuring the [[Evil Queen (Disney)|Evil Queen]] (from ''[[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937 film)|Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs]]'') and [[Disney Villains]]. The film is an anthology that features clips from Disney animated films plus shorts and songs. While the scenes shown as flashbacks are from traditional animated films, the original scenes of the film featuring the Evil Queen with her cauldron were animated in [[Computer-generated imagery|CGI]].

== Plot ==
On the night before Halloween, the [[Evil Queen (Disney)|Evil Queen]] from ''[[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937 film)|Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs]]'' plans to conquer Halloween, and asks her cauldron to show several villains, to which one of them helps her in her plan, such as [[Pete (Disney)|Peg Leg Pete]] from ''[[Mickey Mouse universe|Mickey & Friends]]'' (in his role as Tiny Tom in ''[[Officer Duck]]''), [[Ursula (The Little Mermaid)|Ursula]] from ''[[The Little Mermaid (1989 film)|The Little Mermaid]]'', [[Captain Hook (Disney)|Captain Hook]] from ''[[Peter Pan (1953 film)|Peter Pan]]'', [[Yzma]] from ''[[The Emperor's New Groove]]'', Professor Ratigan from ''[[The Great Mouse Detective]]'', Alameda Slim from ''[[Home on the Range (2004 film)|Home on the Range]]'', and [[Claude Frollo (Disney character)|Judge Claude Frollo]] from ''[[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996 film)|The Hunchback of Notre Dame]]''. The cauldron also explains its origins and the Horned King, both from ''[[The Black Cauldron (film)|The Black Cauldron]]''. At the end however, the cauldron makes the Evil Queen disappear, foiling her plan to take over Halloween.
