Disney princesses have become true household names that ushered magical flair into the hearts of people everywhere. From overcoming the challenges brought about by evil queens, to crossing treacherous waters to save the world, all the way to finding true love and living happily ever after, every Disney princess has an inspiring story to tell.
While we all know these beautiful royals for their gentle and kind demeanor, there is an alternate universe wherein they all live as witches. Whether they’re bad or good witches is unclear, but it’s pretty cool either way. Meet Emma G and ArtCrawl, the amazing artists responsible for giving our lovable Disney princesses a wicked makeover! Read on for a lot of Disney, spells, and potions!
#1 Ariel
No, Ariel, that magic wand is not meant for combing your hair. But you can probably use that to chant a spell against the Little Mermaid evil witch Ursula.
#2 Anna and Elsa
It’s siblings Elsa and Anna like we’ve never seen before. From the looks of it, the two Arendelle royals are ready to star in the hit musical, Wicked, as Elphaba and Glinda. Imagine how different the show would be if Elphaba had Elsa’s icy powers…
#3 Aurora
The famous Sleeping Beauty has awoken from her slumber to conjure up some magical mayhem against the Mistress of All Evil, Maleficent. Or maybe Princess Aurora is just brewing a sparkly moisturizer before bedtime, who knows?
#4 Belle
Belle and her book of spells are gearing up to spread some magic of love and positivity. Looking like she’s ready for a guest appearance in Wizards of Waverly Place, Belle may have also found the perfect spell to revert the Enchantress’ curse on Beast and transform him back to his human form.
#5 Jasmine
Prince Jasmine may not have Genie by her side, but she has her mystical crystal ball with her. Curious about the luck you’ll receive in the future? Princess Jasmine can tell you all about it by just looking into her crystal ball. Unless this is one of those magic 8 balls that will tell you to “try again later”? But on second thought, that would actually be great advice. If you’ve been trying to achieve something, don’t give up and try again later. Wow, thanks, Jasmine!
#6 Megara
Is Megara putting a hex on this rose or is she playing a supernatural game of “He loves me, he loves me not”? We’re absolutely certain that Hercules loves you, Meg. Now, unhand that innocent rose!
#7 Merida
She’s brave, she’s beautiful, and she’s chopped off her famous red curls to look like Winnifred Sanderson (Bette Midler) in the movie Hocus Pocus. Merida just keeps on surprising us. What will she do next? Turn everyone in the kingdom into bears?
#8 Mulan
With her cool black nails, sheer puff sleeves, smokey makeup, and dip dye locks, Mulan could either be a modern-day witch in Salem or a fashion connoisseur. And Mushu, the fire-breathing dragon, seems to agree!
#9 Pocahontas
Mulan has traded in her earth-tone dress for a crop top and high-waist jeans. Also, she’s got a fresh new bob cut to complement her iridescent crescent moon tattoo. There’s no doubt about it that Pocahontas’ witchcraft will ward off evil and protect Mother Nature.
#10 Rapunzel
This one seems to be an ode to Sarah Jessica Parker’s role as a witch in the film, Hocus Pocus. Rapunzel’s hair may be a lot shorter than we’re used to, but it does look perfect with her crimson cape. Is it just us, or does she look totally shocked about becoming a scarlet witch?
#11 Tiana
Looking gorgeous in a purple gown and a hairstyle similar to that of Kathy Najimy’s character in Hocus Pocus, Tiana from The Princess and the Frog seems to be adding a secret ingredient to a cup of tea. Did that dangerous potion come from Mama Odie? Either way, look out, Facilier, because Prince Naveen may be an accomplice. And oh, did I mention that Tiana would pass a sister of Tia Dalma from Pirates of the Caribbean? Minus the hairstyle of course.
#12 Aurora (Borealis)
Not all witches wear black and green, right Sleeping Beauty? Twirling in an ethereal gown from her wardrobe plus a matching hat, Sleeping Beauty looks more like a nymph than a witch.
#13 Mulan in her workshop
This Imperial princess is so absorbed in reading the ingredients that she spills that glowing blue potion all over the table! Crikee, we should start panicking any moment now.
#14 Cinderella
Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo! Looking like a white witch, Cinderella has learned a few tricks from her dear fairy godmother. With her newfound knowledge and power, she’s conjured up a few enchanted pumpkins of her own with the help of Cinderella main characters, Jaq and Gus. And oh, did we mention that her dress is fit for a runway?
#15 Rapunzel part 2
You’re not a true witch without a little golden glow and some barefoot frolicking. Even before her transformation into a witch, Rapunzel was already gifted with magical hair. Now that she’s a witch, she will be unstoppable. This reimagined Rapunzel makes a great addition to the Disney series Halloweentown.
#16 Ariel, again
We already told her that this is a wand and not a comb, but it appears that she has spiraled into her own imagination. Can Prince Eric bring back Ariel’s clarity?
#17 Snow White
In a dark and twisted take on the classic fairy tale, Snow White is reborn as a powerful witch, pretty much like Scarlet Witch from the MCU. With her raven hair, piercing eyes, and wicked smile, she is the fairest of them all, but her beauty is only matched by her dark power. In this bonus fan art by martadewinter, Snow White is holding a poisonous apple that promises death to anyone who dares to have a bite of it. We wonder what the seven dwarfs look like when they are under the spell of Snow White.
