"The Storyteller" Complete Collection Coming To Blu-ray!

Australian company Via Vision Entertainment will release the blu-ray debut the classic Henson anthology series The Storyteller this summer.


While the series has been released on DVD and streaming before, this will be the series first time on Blu-ray and the first time the series will be available on physical media since being remastered. 

This set includes all nine stories from the original The StoryTeller series plus the Greek Myths sequel series as well. 

For those unfamiliar, the original series starred John Hurt, and his cynical dog, who narrates fascinating tales that combine humor, intrigue, and magic. Featuring both human actors and creations from Jim Henson’s Creature Shop retelling classic folk tales, fables, and legends, the series marked a more mature direction for Henson, more in the vein of The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth, then The Muppets. 

Be aware Bluray.com has the release as Region B only, which will not play in most US players, though that may change closer to it's release. 

The set comes out August, 20th, and you can pre-order the set on Blu-ray and DVD from Via Vision Entertainment.

From Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to The Wizard of Oz, many classic tales through the centuries wouldn’t be half as exciting without the devious doings of a witch. Now add another to the venerable tradition of stories that deliver family fun every witch way, a collaboration combining the effects wizardry of executive producer Jim Henson and the imagination of Willy Wonka creator Roald Dahl.

Academy Award® winner* Anjelica Huston won the Los Angeles and National Society of Film Critics Best Actress awards for her marvelous work as the Grand High Witch in this enchanting fable directed by Nicolas Roeg. Jasen Fisher plays Luke, the 9-year-old boy who must foil the plans of a society of witches to turn the world’s children into mice. It won’t be easy: They’ve already transformed him into one! But some big, bad witches may be no match for the resourcefulness of a single tiny rodent.



The Witches Bluray will be released 8/20/2019, and can be pre-ordered now through the Warner Archive Collection.
