Originally, the Jabberwocky was to feature in a [[The Silver Wood|chase level]] with [[Dan]] being pursued by it. The level map and Jabberwocky model can be found in the ''[[MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha]]''. However, the chase itself has not been implemented by the time of this version. Snippets of a functional version of this level can be seen in one of the game's trailers. The level was replaced with the 9AV FMV.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://web.archive.org/web/20080321020515/http://www.atomic-city.co.uk/pages/artwork/Medievil_gallery/medievil_morten_concept_design.htm|title=''MediEvil'' concept design|site=atomic-city}} Archived at the [http://archive.org/web/ Wayback Machine Internet Archive].</ref>

====''MediEvil'' (2019 remake)====
The Silver Wood level that the Jabberwocky features in was going to be recreated in the remake. However, it was cut for time.{{TwitterRef|graysonZ80|1705339166374989990|September 22, 2023|December 14, 2023|quote=i was made to understand the 2019 MediEvil remake was actually meant to reimplement (or reimagine?) this level, and it got pretty far but was cut for time. (i think it’s been long enough that i can say that without getting killed?)}}
