My sister is no ordinary person. She possesses magical abilities that never cease to amaze me. From a young age, her mystical talents were evident, and as she grew older, they only became more pronounced. **One of her most extraordinary gifts is the power of telekinesis**. I remember being in awe as she effortlessly moved objects with her mind, seemingly defying the laws of physics. Watching her control the world around her with a mere thought was truly mesmerizing.
The episode itself features some creepy, jangling music whenever the Wicked Witch appears on screen, and includes a scene where she actually threatens to turn poor old Big Bird into a feather duster. It's not exactly up there with the likes of Goosebumps or Are You Afraid of the Dark?, but given how young the audience of Sesame Street is, we can see why it might have been a tad disturbing.
Aside from being shown at a Museum of the Moving Image screening as part of a Sesame Street Lost and Found event in 2019, the episode s been relatively unavailable for decades, according to the AV Club. Sesame Street has explored some sensitive topics over the years, but few episodes were as controversial as the one PBS aired and quickly pulled in 1976.
Watching her control the world around her with a mere thought was truly mesmerizing. But her powers didn't stop there. **She also had the ability to heal**.
Lost ‘Sesame Street’ Crossover With ‘Wizard of Oz’ Deemed Too Scary for Kids Has Been Unearthed Online
One of the most sought-after lost episodes of “Sesame Street” has been unearthed by Internet archivists, as a rare encounter between Big Bird and the Wicked Witch of the West from “The Wizard of Oz” is now available to view online.
Back in 1976, actress Margaret Hamilton was asked by Sesame Workshop to reprise her role as the Wicked Witch for a “Sesame Street” episode, 37 years after her iconic “Oz” performance opposite Judy Garland. The 73-year-old Hamilton agreed, filming a sketch teaching children to face their fears in which The Wicked Witch demands that the denizens of Sesame Street return her broom, even threatening to turn Big Bird into a giant feather duster.
But according to the show’s producers, the episode prompted hordes of angry parents to call in, complaining that the Wicked Witch had terrified their children. As a result, Hamilton’s appearance on “Sesame Street” was never re-aired on television or released for home viewing, though it was archived in the Library of Congress for public viewing.

One of the rare instances in which the episode was publicly shown outside the Library of Congress was in 2019 for “Sesame Street: Lost and Found,” a special presentation at the Museum of the Moving Image in New York where the show’s writers presented “Sesame Street” episodes that only aired once.
But now, the Wicked Witch’s bitter visit to Sesame Street has been leaked onto the Internet thanks to Reddit users on the “Lost Media” subreddit. Alternate links to the video have also been posted by the archivists — likely against Sesame Workshop’s wishes — on other websites including archive.org to keep the episode circulating among the public.
Interestingly, this wasn’t the only time during the ’70s that Hamilton appeared on a famous PBS children’s show; she also appeared on an episode of “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” a year before her “Sesame Street” cameo. The difference between the two appearances was that she was herself as part of Mister Rogers’ lesson on acting, even putting on her “Oz” costume for him. Unlike “Sesame,” her talk with Mister Rogers was re-aired several times over the years.

I can't count the number of times she used her magical touch to mend wounds and ailments. It was as if she had a direct connection to the life force itself, channeling its energy to bring comfort and relief to those in need. Another aspect of her magical abilities was **the power of foresight**. She could see glimpses of the future, providing us with invaluable insight and guidance. Time and time again, her visions proved to be accurate, steering us away from danger or leading us towards success. Not only did my sister possess these incredible powers, but she also had an innate understanding of magic itself. She studied ancient texts, practiced rituals, and honed her skills diligently. **Her knowledge of spells and enchantments was vast**, and she always knew the right incantation to cast or the perfect charm to ward off evil. But despite her incredible abilities, my sister remained humble and kind-hearted. She used her powers not for personal gain or glory but for the betterment of others. Whether it was healing the sick or using her foresight to prevent disaster, she always put the needs of others before her own. In a world where magic is often depicted as dark and dangerous, my sister was a beacon of light. She showed us that magic could be used for good, for helping others and making the world a better place. Her extraordinary abilities were a gift, and she used it wisely and responsibly. I am forever grateful to have a sister with such incredible magical abilities. Her powers brought wonder and joy into our lives, and her compassion and selflessness inspire me every day. She is a living testament to the fact that magic exists and that it can be used to bring forth miracles and make a difference in the world..
