Anyone got a good list of the potion ingredients?
I'm trying to mark up some jars for Halloween, and there are a couple of things Dr. Bedlo is rattling off that I can't quite understand.
Any help is appreciated.

I love knowing things like this so thank you for providing it.
Every time I saw the movie I could not understand "Janglings of a Gallow's Bird". I kept hearing "Changelings of a Gallow's Bird" which didn't make sense to me but I couldn't think of anything else it might be. Thanks for clearing that up.
What I hear also differs on a couple of the other ingrediants.
You list "Rabbit Slog" but I think he is saying "Rabbit's lard". You also list "The Eye of a White Regal" but I think he is saying "The Eye of a White Weasel".
I agree with you on the other ingrediants.

I watched it again Friday night.

I hope that this is helpful.
From the subtitles
You got some dried blood
of a bat in the house?
How about some chain
links from a gallows bird?
Jellied spiders? Rabbits' lard?
Dead-man's hair?
Oh please I tried making up a batch the other night and I had Ravens coming in from as far away as Maryland.

I've heard that Hitchcock used the same potion when he was filming 'The Birds.'
shareNow what is it you need?
Dried bat's blood.
Chain links from a gallows bird.
Rabbits' lard. Essence of...
Slowly, slowly.
One thing at a time, please.
Now what is it?
Nothing.
What's that?
Entrails of troubled horse.
No, no, put it back.
- What's that?
- I can't read it.
Well, look inside then.
What is it?
I'd rather not discuss it,
if you don't mind.
You did say dead-man's hair?
Yes. That's one of the
prime ingredients.
All right, let's get on with it.
All right, all right,
that's enough stirring.
Now the tongue of a vulture.
Come on, come on.
You're the slowest
magician I've ever seen.
It's a very difficult recipe.
Is that all there is of it?
You've got the jellied
spiders in there?
Yes.
The eye of a white weasel?
Yes.
You didn't forget the
dead-man's hair?
No.
Well that should do it, then.
Hand it over.
