100 YEARS OF HORROR #10: The Skeleton Dance (1929)

At midnight in a graveyard, four skeletons climb from their graves and dance a playful macabre routine until the rooster crows.

The landmark first Silly Symphony, where Disney and Iwerks fused animation with music in a delightfully spooky dance.

Walt Disney, Ub Iwerks and Carl Stalling make animation history with this horror-themed first instalment in the 75-episode series Silly Symphonies, groundbreaking for its marriage of animation and synchronised sound.
