Quiz
As its animators were working on this cartoon, the Disney studio asked its comic book unit to produce a special Halloween issue that would appear on newsstands as the short reached the big screen. Western Publishing duly sent storyboard stats to its star artist, asking him to draw a feature-length story similar to that of the cartoon. But Carl Barks "soon found that the material wouldn't fill the 32 pages that were then the length of a feature, so I ad-libbed some extra stuff", hammering out extensive additions and revisions. Some of his new material, however (including a spooky graveyard and a six-armed cyclops named Smorgie), were considered so dark, grisly, or bizarre that parts of the comic book had to be redrawn or were censored outright, and when "Trick or Treat" appeared in Donald Duck # 26 (November 1952), it had been shorn to 23 pages.

Blooper
The eyes of Dewey's costume are only shown as holes throughout most of the short until the very last shot of the nephews waving goodbye to Witch Hazel, then his eyes are shown peeking through the holes.

Citazioni
Hazel the Witch: Double, double, toil and trouble. Fire burn and cauldron bubble. Eye of needle, tongue of shoe, hand of clock that points at two... This is the real thing, you know, right out of Shakespeare. NECK OF BOTTLE, TAIL OF COAT, AND... whiskers from a billy goat! *cackles*
Huey: [gives whiskers] There you are, Hazel.
Hazel the Witch: Yuck, repulsive...
[carefully drops whiskers into the brew]
Hazel the Witch: [Hazel cackles as the cauldron magically erupts as it mixes]
Hazel the Witch: Delightfully gruesome reaction.
[Tastes the mix and does crazy things from the effects]
Hazel the Witch: [gurgles and bubbles] Kids, this stuff's loaded!

Curiosità sui crediti
The title cards, including Donald's face usually shown over a sunburst background, are done in the style of painted graffiti on a fence.

Donald the Bully

Now Donald Duck is my absolute favorite cartoon character, but I honestly didn't really like him in this cartoon. He's kind of a nasty bully, picking on his nephews by putting live firecrackers in their trick-or-treat bags and by dumping water on their heads. Then Witch Hazel comes in and teaches him a much-deserved lesson. So no matter what happens, bad stuff happens to Donald, but I prefer to see him be an innocent bystander rather than a mean instigator.

Nevertheless, this cartoon does have a nice Disney feel to it. It has its own special song with singing ghosts and a floating pumpkin. I also found it interesting to learn that June Foray, who did the voice of Witch Hazel in this cartoon, also did the voice for Witch Hazel in a Warner Brothers cartoon. It seems like Disney couldn't get a copyright on the name Witch Hazel because it refers to an alcohol rub.

With that little tidbit of info, I still have to say that I didn't care too much for this cartoon. I can't remember many funny moments except when Hazel puts a spell on Donald's feet, but that's about it. It's still a decent Disney cartoon, but it's definitely not my favorite.

My IMDb Rating: 6/10
