Fear The Unknown | Wirt's Journey in Over the Garden Wall

Over the Garden Wall is one of my favorite pieces of animation of all-time. A gothic, folksy, nightmarish fairy tale filled with bubbly, expressive characters, immaculate backgrounds and a perfectly paced, well rounded story. But beyond its surface level beauty, the miniseries also has an incredible character journey for its main character, Wirt, that ties perfectly into the show's themes. And that character journey and these themes are perfectly framed by the name of story’s location: The Unknown 00:00 - Fear the Unknown 07:30 - Embrace the Unknown 12:12 - Know the Unknown SUPPORT ME ON PATREON!-   / johnny2cellos   Follow me on Twitter:   / johnny2cellos   Edited by ‪@ToonrificTariq‬ and Joe Murphy (and me) Thumbnail illustrations by Ravioli Hire him here: https://www.fiverr.com/raviolidesigne...
