Inanimate brooms brought to life due to an enchantment cast by an apprentice of magic. The depiction they came to be known by worldwide was fully created by Disney[1], appearing in the animated movie [[Fantasia]]. 

If broken, each splinter will turn into a new, complete broom, behaving in the same way as the original.

In [[Fantasia]], the broom uses its bristles to walk around as if they were feet.
