In Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the Raven is a minor character. His role in the film is to serve as a conduit for the Evil Queen to talk with (primarily as the Witch) in order to deliver storyline information to the viewers. The Queen, in both of her appearances, appears to intimidate him. As a pet, the raven appears to reside in the Evil Queen's laboratory in the dungeon. He is sleeping on a skull when first seen; he awakens when she enters and is frightened by the effects of her potion's contents. The Queen in her Witch form frightens him, so he hides in the skull, gazing out of its sockets. As he sees the Witch prepare the Poisoned Apple, he is scared when she presents it to him as a cruel joke. After the Witch departs the castle, the Raven is eventually seen, but his destiny remains unknown.
