Inspiration for the look was taken from Old Halloween postcards, photographs of trees in New England, Gustave Dore illustrations, color-printing technique called chromolithography, and an antique board game called Game of Frog Pond.
Two heroes are dressed in short pants, suspenders, cloaks, and, in Wirt's case, pointy hat settings and characters for every episode have a distinct Old-timey storybook aesthetic and animation is done with mute earthy colors, unlike vibrant shades normally used for animated shows gear towards children.
Word cottagecore wasn't part of the popular lexicon when this series first air, but Over Garden Wall is it. That is, until you get to the final three episodes, in which endless woods themselves reveal to me something much more terrifying than they seem. Each episode is its own self-contain story of their woodland escape, with titles like Old Grist Mill and Hard Times at Huskin' Bee, and always threats in each are never what you expect things that seem most sinister at the beginning turn out to be something familiar and comforting by the end.
The Trio are intercepted by various forces along the way, including a frightened Woodsman bearing a lantern, anxious schoolmarm trying to teach forest animals to read and write while mooning after losing love, town full of people in pumpkin-heads preparing for the Harvest festival, and a steam ferry full of dancing frogs. Along the way, they meet Beatrice, talking bluebird, who promises them she'll help them find their way out of the woods. The show begins with Wirt and his little brother Greg walking through dark woods, known as Unknown, Wirt searching for a pathway home while Greg bumbles around spouting rock facts and thinking up names for his pet Frog. Every episode contains elements of sinister and uncanny, from vine-limbed pumpkin-head giants to toothy black dogs with glowing eyes to people possessed by skull-faced demons kept in check with the ringing of bell. It was created by Adventure Time writer Patrick McHale and, like Adventure Time, it has a dark little heart mask with what appears at first to be simple child-friendly whimsy. Over Garden Wall, which was broadcast on Cartoon Network from November 3 to November 7 2014, is a ten-episode animated miniseries about two young boys, Wirt and Greg, who get lost in a forest full of strange and sinister creatures, and must find their way back home before they're taken by evil being call Beast. Or, if you haven't seen it at all, you might be wondering why those two little boys and their Frog keep burgling people's turts.
