“Steamboat Willie” is the name of the 1928 short film that popularized an old Mickey Mouse with eyes like black pupils, smaller shoes and hands without the gloves that his current version, the main Disney image, so often used born.

As CNN published, the first version of the funny mouse, which we saw sailing and whistling encouragingly, became public domain since January 1. So far, the trailers have been released for two horror productions in which the animated character becomes a heartless serial killer.

Nightmare Forge Games was one of the first companies to announce its new horror project, a video game in which the figure of Mickey Mouse from 95 years ago becomes one of the main enemies, according to Vida Extra.

“This game is inspired by works that are now in the public domain. This independent creation is not authorized, sponsored or otherwise supported by any original author of said works,” is what they indicate on their Steam page about this game in which horrible vermin must be eliminated.

Director Jamie Bailey and the company Filmcore Limited came together in 2024 to make a horror film, yet without a release date, in which the killer is a person disguised as Mickey from ‘Steamboat Willie’, according to AS.
