In an interview with the publication BBC which happened in 1959, Walt Disney explained. the reason I loved weird characters. Dwarves, a grasshopper with a high sense of morality, a wooden doll who dreams of being a real child, an elephant who can fly. For the creator, the most curious figures demonstrated that the fantasy genre allows for all kinds of ideas of beauty. Therefore, the research that bore his name focused its interest on creatures that were often marginalized and which, thanks to the animated worlds, had a happy ending.
The tradition continued after the death of the company’s most iconic figure. In fact, a significant portion of Disney films, animated or not, usually feature unique characters. Some of them are a direct figment of the imagination of cartoonists and artists. However, they are all surrounded by the magical spirit of the company. From Firefly Ray from Tiana and the toad blue-skinned alien in Lilo and Stitch. The rarest creatures in the study tend to also the most charming and funny of the stories to which they belong.
