Chernabog
First appearance	Fantasia(1940); Night on Bald Mountainsegment

In-universe information
Species	Devil

Chernabog is the massive nocturnaldevilinNight on Bald Mountain,who can take people's hearts and holds power over various restless souls. His name is taken fromChernobog,an allegeddeityofSlavic mythology;the name isSlavicfor "black god".While officially apagangod, Chernabog might have originally been intended as a representation ofSatan:when "Night on Bald Mountain" appeared on the originalWonderful World of Disney,Walt Disneyreferred to Chernabog as "Satan himself."Deems Taylor also refers to Chernabog as "Satan" in the film.

Chernabog is first seen disguised as the spire on top of Bald Mountain until he spreads his draconic wings, revealing himself. It isWalpurgis Night,and he uses his dark supernatural powers to raiseghosts,monsters,fire women,a fleet ofimps,bluesatyrs,witchesanddemonsfrom a nearby town with acemetery.Ghosts ofcriminalspass through thenoosea second time, while others rise from the moat surrounding the ruins of an abandoned ancient castle. He then also summons fire and makes the ghosts and the other creatures in his control dance and fly around, before he throws them into avolcanicpit and resurrects them as demons.Harpiesfly around as the cavorting gets more chaotic, throwing unfortunate, deformed creatures into the multi-hued flames. Chernabog is at the height of his power, showing off in a display that sends a column of fire into the air, which returns to the chasm in a sheet of flame. An instant before continuing the demonic celebration, Chernabog hears the tolling of theAngelus Bell,signaling the coming of the dawn; he is then forced to cover himself with his wings as the demons leap back down the pit, the ghosts return to their graves, and the dark ceremony ceases as morning arrives.

In other media

Chernabog appears as one of theDisney Villainsin both versions of theFantasmic!nighttime spectacular atDisneylandinAnaheim, Californiaand theDisney's Hollywood StudiosinOrlando, Florida.Here he is summoned by theEvil QueenfromSnow White and the Seven Dwarfsto fightMickey Mouse.In both versions ofFantasmic!his role is similar to that inFantasia,with him summoning ghosts. He has no spoken dialogue, but growls, cackles, and screams during his appearances in the show. In the end, Mickey defeats Chernabog along with the other villains with his imagination. He also previously appeared in the original version of World of Color at Disney California Adventure, but was replaced in 2011 with an extended Pirates of The Caribbean sequence. His sequence has not been restored. Before the premiere of World of Color, a large fountain effect was created so he could appear towering over the rest of the show. However, due to technical problems, the effect was ultimately removed before the show opened. He also appears in parade floats in Disney amusement parks.

Chernabog appeared in the Disney/Square Enixcrossover gameKingdom Heartsas a surprisebosswho rules over the "End of the World", serving as the fight beforeAnsem.Chernabog attacks by breathing fire, invoking an eruption from the mountain he stands in, summoning spirits to attackSora,Donald and Goofy and flinging balls of fire. "Night on Bald Mountain" serves as the music during this boss battle in the North American, PAL and Final Mix version of the game, making him the only Disney villain in the game to have his own unique boss music. He returns inKingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distanceas a boss fight in Riku's story in theSymphony of Sorceryworld based uponFantasia.

Chernabog is also seen as a guest inHouse of Mousewhere he is voiced byCorey Burton.Here, his legs can be seen. He is more than an actual villain. In one particular episode, he sheepishly admits toClarabelle Cowthat he is afraid of the dark and in another during ablackout,he admits that he is "kind of afraid of the dark". In one episode, he even reenacts a part of theNight on Bald Mountainsegment beforePetetries to push him (and Bald Mountain) away with a bulldozer, which provokes the evil spirits that chase the selfish cat out of the club. In the direct-to-videoMickey's House of Villains,he is part of the villains that accompanyJafarto take over the club.

Chernabog makes an appearance inDisney at Dawn,the second book of theKingdom Keepersseries. Though he is mentioned numerous times throughout, his major role is at the end of the book, where it is revealed that he has been trapped by Disney Imagineers in the form of theYetiin theDisney's Animal Kingdomattraction Expedition Everest. He is freed by Maleficent, and flies out of the mountain, before escaping capture and escaping from the park. In a cliffhanger ending, it is reported he and Maleficent have most likely taken shelter inMGM Studios.

Duringseason 4of the television seriesOnce Upon a Time,the Chernabog is released in Storybrooke.

A painting of Chernabog can be seen in the Lonesome Manor Foyer inEpic Mickeyand he also appears in the film reel segments based upon his segment inEpic Mickey 2: The Power of Two.
