Child Catcher
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang film (1968)
The Child Catcher works for Baron and Baroness Bomburst of Vulgaria to kidnap and lock up the country's children. He wears a black suit with a top hat, and has past shoulder length long greasy black hair. He is also very pale skinned, thin, and has a spider-like quality and grace in the way he moves. His most recognizable feature is his elongated nose, with which he is able to smell children and find where they are hiding. When searching for the children, he carries a large net and a hook to catch them.
His vehicle he drives is a horse-drawn dark buggy equipped with a cage, but he sometimes disguises the buggy as a candy-and-ice cream wagon in order to lure, and capture, children with. He also disguises himself with colorful clothing and carries lollies and other sweets with which to tempt the children out of their hiding places.
Later as the story goes, the children get their revenge when they plunder the castle with the help of Caracticus Potts, and the Child Catcher is snared in his own net.....
