@bencooper There is! And little red riding hood and the Wizard of Oz get a look in too. I’ve definitely missed some of his references over the years. I read Maskerade years before I ever saw Phantom of the Opera or knew anything about the story. I was quite shocked by how similar they are. — PolitiTweet.org

But Terry Pratchett’s Witches Abroad (1991) has a frog prince, Baron Samedi and voodoo woman (Mrs Gogol). Did Pratchett put these things together originally or did he draw from an earlier version of the story? If so, which version of the story was this and where can I find it? — PolitiTweet.org

@adaliabooks You are right. I suppose I never felt that Baron Saturday and Mrs Gogol fitted in Witches Abroad as well as most situations and characters in Pratchett’s books do. And when I re-watched the Disney version I imagined Pratchett put it in because it was part of the original story. — PolitiTweet.org
