Disneyland Park is famous for its slogan "The happiest place on Earth" and almost anyone who has been there at least once will agree that even one day there is truly an unforgettable experience. Especially if you are a child, although Disney tries to create a real holiday for adults too.
However, every coin has two sides, and it's easy enough to imagine actors spending all day in one-piece costumes of Disney characters. On this side, the stories may not be as funny and amusing - and a recent viral thread in the AskReddit community is dedicated to just such tales.

My son is neurodivergent and when he was four all he wanted was to meet Elsa and baymax. Baymax made him sob and then when he met Elsa all he wanted to do was talk to her about everything, the handlers tried to move us along understandably as the line was long but this woman literally took the handlers hand off my son and said, no, this young man waited to speak to me and he will stay and speak to me until he decides he is done. I cried. My son hugged her so hard because in that moment a stranger saw him.

i believe the Disney face characters are trained to never release hugs first and always let kids finish speaking before saying goodbye. my nephew and Aurora had a 5 minute hug bc he was too young to know when to let go and she just let him hug her. his daddy finally had to intervene and pull them apart :-D

Not an actor, but was at DisneyLand in 21 and walked past some Stormtroopers. One of them said to me “keep that little droid in check” (referring to my youngest daughter)
So now every time she sees a stormtrooper she always says “dad remember that time at Disneyland one of them talked to you”

THIS. The last time I was at Disney World (Feb. 2020, a week before it closed due to Covid), my family and I were in the Star Wars area and good lord, was it crowded. And these poor actors, practically swimming through groups of people wanting to take pictures, this specific Stormtrooper though, after taking a picture with a kid and (who i'd assume to be his grandmother???) ran completely into this other old lady, practically slamming her to the ground, saying, "God, MOVE IT, old woman!". So now, "God, MOVE IT, old woman!" is a common saying in the household whenever any of us see a Stormtrooper. I hope both the trooper and the woman are doing wonderfully. I think about them often.

I think it's so fun that the star wars land characters bring a little "spice" to the disney magic. The Rise of the Resistance broke when i was in the first part, and it was so fun to see thr cast members switch from sassy to very helpful and comforting, and then when it was fixed, right back to sassy (with a wink). They have fun with it 😊

I understand. I absolutely love amusement parks, but I get visibly upset if a clown or a character enters my space.
It is believed that the idea to create a theme park came to Walt Disney after a trip to Europe, where he and his daughter visited several similar parks at once, in particular, the famous Tivoli amusement park in Copenhagen. Interestingly, the new park was originally supposed to be located near the great animator's studio in Burbank, California, but almost immediately it became clear that there simply wasn’t enough space. What happened next is now history...

I dated a girl that played one of the fairies for the Tinkerbell place. Beyond the pretty much daily occurrence of old dads hitting on her (she was 19 at the time) the weirdest thing to happen to her was a woman with a 4yr old little girl was all excited to get a picture with Tinkerbell, who was busy, so my ex volunteered to do pictures and entertain the little girl while they waited.
The woman was a b***h about that idea, rudely saying she was here to see Tinkerbell and not "off-brand" fairies. So just shrugging it off, my ex moved on. A bit later, she hears a commotion and Tinkerbell is obviously upset, and security shows up. Apparently, this woman was Tinkerbell's bio mom and had taken her granddaughter to Disney, just to violate the restraining order against her.

Until Florida took away the Reedy Creek District, Disney was the legal government of the park with a legit police force, fire dept, elected mayor and government, zoning commission, collected sales and property tax (to run the Disney govt and services), etc. Now they still have their own police force, but its under Florida state control. Did you know they had the permits to build a Nuclear Reactor before Florida removed Reedy Creek, among other things. Disney had some real power before florida decided Disney didnt deserve special treatment anymore for biting the hand that fed them (and yes I know the politics behind it, but in the past Disney just funded things, they didnt go with public statements, which is what triggered the process. As long as it was behind the scenes, they didnt care, once they put their name it, the war with the State was on). Though Universal and the other parks had been lobbying for years for Disney to lose it, bc it gave Disney an unfair advantage that they literally made their own rules and zoning, and paid taxes to themselves to help run the park, while the rest of the Parks didnt.

It's such a weird decision. I don't like the idea of a corporation having control like a government. But I also don't like that DeSantis was behind it. But I also think it's odd that DeSantis, from the party who likes to give corporate control to government functions (see: trying to privatize the postal service), is doing a government takeover of a corporation.

Never was an actor, but when I was a kid at Disney World in the 70s, I watched Chip get into a fist fight with a young 20 something guy. The guys girlfriend wanted him to do a picture with Chip & Dale, but he didn't want to. Chip grabbed him in a head lock and his girlfriend snapped the photo. When Chip let go, the guy came up swinging. Dale had to jump in and break them up, as Chip started swinging back. For a kid of 12, it was awesome!

One Halloween in Glasgow, I saw two full sets of Teletubbies - eight guys - beating the living c**p out of each other. It was hilarious.
By the way, unlike other amusement parks, Disney World employees are really actors, because the company basically uses theatrical terminology. So, for example, if you're working as, let's say, Mickey Mouse, then you're actually "playing Mickey Mouse" and you're not wearing a uniform, you're wearing a costume. Accordingly, even when you, being in a character, just walk down the alley, you must behave as Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck would behave. Oh Phooey!

Not a cast member but either Mickey or Minnie cut a very audible fart while posing with my wife and me. It must've been awful inside that dutch oven of a costume.

I knew a friend(a guy) who wore Minnie Mouse costume. He told me almost all guys would put their hands around his waist. He wouldn’t dare to talk or else they will hear his manly voice and that might pisses them off.
Edit: this blows up quickly. I feel I need to let people know that it’s not okay to grope the Disney characters. My friend had introduced me to the people who play them and they are just normal people. All I can tell you is that they will make a disgusting face under the mask and talk s**t about you later after work.

I was playing Goofy inside a restaurant and I got swarmed Aliens-style by a hoard of kids under the age of 10. Unfortunately while I was playing around with them the inner hood below the mask slipped over my eyes and I was completely blinded. We had assistants around whom we could signal for help by flapping our arms, but the kids had made it a game of attaching themselves Tarzan-like to both my arms and to raise them I would have had to lift 3-4 kids per arm (dangerous even if I'd been strong enough to do that).
I found myself blind and completely rooted to the spot, unable to ask for help and with nobody realizing that I was in trouble. I spent like a solid 10-15 minutes in that sort of limbo reflecting on the life decisions that had taken me there until the assistant came over and whispered "set is over dude" and I finally managed to signal something was wrong.

I hate this part of entertainment 😆 I’ve been left in winter weather mid storm next to the pool while they whisk people away , forgetting I need someone to carry me back inside to take my tail off, sat for an hour in the cold rain and wind politely waiting and not wanting to break character. My boss told me never let people do that to me again though 😆 (I’m 39kg and 4foot10 for context of coldness ).
There is a legend that when Walt Disney told his wife that he was going to open an amusement park, she objected that "they're so dirty", to which he replied: "That's the point. Mine won't be." Indeed, cleanliness is one of the distinctive features of Disney World. Along with, for example, just an incredible number of rides. After all, who else has managed to turn an ordinary (albeit incredibly popular) attraction into a colossal movie franchise, like Pirates of the Caribbean did?

I was one of the performers for Nick Wilde from Zootopia a few years ago, And if you’re not aware; a large number of people in the furry community find him highly attractive.
You can just imagine the number of people in that community who flirted with me and/or Judy and whispered some pretty sexual things to us. I think I also had a guy grab Nick’s tie like in that flirty way, we had to get him escorted out of the park.
The moral of the story is: don’t be inappropriate with the characters, we are real people underneath and the are legitimate consequences for that kind of behaviour.

Long story short. Not a former costume actor but I did "interact" with one. This happened over twenty-five years ago. My wife surprised me with a trip to Sea World in Ohio. Inside the gate was the costume actor for Shamu. Since my wife is short and I am tall, the actor sat down on the bench with me on one side and my wife on the other to have our photograph taken. Shamu held us in close and my hand naturally fell on their thigh. I'm feeling a roll in the plush fabric and imagining how hot it must feel inside that costume when I realized that it was his penis I was feeling up. Picture is taken with Shamu's dork in my hand and we leave the area. My wife falls over laughing as I tell her what happened. She asks if it was a happy ending.

I was Chip n Dale in Land and some dad came up with his kids, I was doin my thang and having fun with them. When it came time for pics the dad comes over to join us and all is well until after the picture when he asked for a hug so I gave him one. He squeezed, pulled away, grabbed his kids hands, smiled and said,"I didn't know Dale was a girl under all that fur."
I played it off at the time but it made me really uncomfortable that he had actually squeezed hard enough to feel me under my costume... decided to wear binders while I was in character so that no one else could ever feel my boobs again through the suit. This was back in 2019

I was part of the Disney college program and I have my own stories but not as a character. My mom on the other hand, she was a character actor back in the day (60’s or 70’s). They were testing a new headpiece for the seven dwarf costumes in Disneyland and my mom wore one of them out on a march with Snow White. As a Dwarf, your head is inside their hat, their face on their stomach, etc. Being Anaheim, it was really hot that summer day and as they were going around following Snow White a little kid saw my mom “Doc” he ran up to give him/her a hug. As he was hugging Doc, the plastic that made up the face started melting inwards and the child started screaming “I killed Doc! I killed Doc!” In hysterics. Character handlers rushed my mom/Doc off through one of the secret passages by Pirates and got her out of the costume before the plastic could melt onto her.
Always thought it was a fun story and curious how much it screwed up that kid.

They have underground corridors under pretty much the entire park, for staff members to get from one area to the other without breaking the magic. It's why you never really see mascots outside of their designated area or janitors dressed in an outfit for the "wrong" zone.

I used to work at a different amusement park that featured similar costumed characters. The worst thing I ever heard was the time one of the characters was overcome by heat in 95 degree weather, and vomited inside the suit, splattering the inside of the suit's head with their half-digested lunch.
They had to walk a long distance back to the dressing rooms breathing the super-heated vomit air the entire way.

It's wild what people think they can just get away with, when you're in a fully covered costume.
I didn't work at a park, but a long time ago I used to go out in a Jack in the Box costume both for fun and for a project. Like the mascot for the fast food chain. It was a VERY accurate costume, the big head/helmet part looked almost identical and was very well made. I wore it with a full suit, tie, and all that. I would just walk around and my friend would film from a distance. We were using the footage for a college assignment. I experienced a lot of weird behavior...
* Guys would smack the helmet as they walked past me. For some reason a lot of guys thought that was funny or something. They'd be like "hey Jack in the crack!" and smack me upside the head. Obviously it didn't hurt because the head is huge and solid, but it banged my head around and was unpleasant. Some smacks were harder than others, it was so weird that their default response was to be abusive.
* A lot of women wanted to post in sexually suggestive ways for photos. Had a girl walk up, ask for a pic, I said of course. She turns around, facing away from me, bends over and puts her a*s up against my crotch. I just stood there, threw up a thumbs up. But she reached back and put my other hand on her waist and her friend taking the pic encouraged me to pretend to hump her for the pic. Another time a girl literally squat in front of me, grabbed my hips and put her face in my crotch and yelled at her friends to take the pic so it looks like she's blowing Jack. I had a gf at the time and she would NOT have been happy if she had seen stuff like that.
But to echo what others have said here, it's all kinda worth it(to an extent) when you see how happy it makes some people. One time I was surrounded by a bunch of kids who thought I was the real deal because they were ecstatic. They ran into the nearby Jack in the Box and grabbed kids placemats and had me sign them with crayons. It was adorable.

I had a female friend who played Pluto for a few years. Even though her gender was indistinguishable because it’s a fully body Pluto costume, she’s would regularly share how often she was groped by kids and adults alike.
In costume she looked like she was 6’6”, but was only 5’8” in real life. You couldn’t tell the gender of any of the 3-4 in Pluto rotation and you could barely tell them apart.

my friend was jasmine and one of the things their role requires is to aknowledge kids dressed up as princesses or princes as if they were one of their own. thats y they bow or curtsy. its like an extra step to make kids smile. if they meet the one they r dressed up as they r supposed to act happy and suprised. although some characters act differently. like jack sparrow if u dress up like him then find him the person is suppose to act shocked then suspicious of u. some disney characters that arent a full suit u actually have to prove u can act before getting the job. the reasoning....to keep the magic of the character alive. my friend hated the job bc of adults but she said the kids smiles made it worth it.

my friend was a disney princess. jasmine if i remember correctly. the horror stories she has r endless. her worst was wen she took a picture with a few college kids. we were in college at the time too our first year. 2 of the guys stuck their hands into the leggings part of the costume and under her panties to grab her a$$. she wasnt the first jasmine to have that happen. thats y if u get a job to b jasmine they make you wear a body suit. it goes from the neck down and made out of the same material as stockings so its not noticable. disney might not treat employees with the best treatment but they do take measures to avoid employees from making sexual harassment charges against customers. u may wonder y they changed the costume well its bc my friend threatened to do just that. she said if they didnt prevent pervs from going into her panties shed press charges. as for the guys who grabbed her a$$ they were kicked out of the park by one of my friends guards unfortunately they had weekend passes so they also slapped them with a ban from taking pics with disney princesses.

So when I was younger I loved Bell ( Who am I kidding I still love her) and I went dressed up as her to Epcot and I met her. It was so amazing the worker saw me dressed up as her with my autograph book so excited because we were both wearing her blue dress and he said that she would love this and I was the last one to take a picture with her before she went on break. She was super sweet and kind.

i worked at a zoo at one time. there were many fundraising events of which one was breakfast at the zoo. we had characters that were animals that entertained the people in line waiting for their breakfast and/or entry to the place. the person who was supposed to be the tiger didn't show up. my now ex hubby had accompanied me to the event so i asked if he would be the tiger. all he had to do was mime and dance and entertain the kids. no problem he said. after a while one of the zookeepers came up to me to ask if i would have my ex move to another area. i was concerned as he had a twisted sense of humor so i thought maybe he had joked with the wrong person. nope. he had been dancing around the tiger enclosure and the actual tigers were stalking him. was telling dad about this a short time ago and he asked if it wouldn't have been easier and cheaper to just let the tigers have him...he may have been on to something with that. (yes, all of us have twisted humors.)

I have been told that security in Heide Park in Germany show the perpetrators (almost, but not always men) the person in the costume (mostly smaller teenage girls with a typical regional summer job) and have a word with them. They will then call the police and you are banned from visiting again like ever. I must say I approve.

First trip, just after my daughter did the 'bibbity bobbity boutique' and was in full on princess mode all crew members called her princess and while watching the parade any characters that noticed our 'princess' bowed or curtsied to her. Second trip, Merida had a very in dept conversation with my kid about the Loch Ness Monster, how Merida knew my kid was obsessed with the Loch Ness Monster is beyond me, but it's one of our favourite character interactions

my friend was jasmine and one of the things their role requires is to aknowledge kids dressed up as princesses or princes as if they were one of their own. thats y they bow or curtsy. its like an extra step to make kids smile. if they meet the one they r dressed up as they r supposed to act happy and suprised. although some characters act differently. like jack sparrow if u dress up like him then find him the person is suppose to act shocked then suspicious of u. some disney characters that arent a full suit u actually have to prove u can act before getting the job. the reasoning....to keep the magic of the character alive. my friend hated the job bc of adults but she said the kids smiles made it worth it.

I worked at Chuck E Cheese as the Chuckster himself. The kids were fun, but their parents were the worst. They would tell their kids things like, "Go see if Chuck E's a boy or a girl," or "Try and take Chuck E's head off." Otherwise, I loved the job, but it made me realize just how many s****y parents there are.

When I was in Disneyland France as a kid, some dude tried to grope Minnie Mouse - the actor inside all of a sudden perks up and growls with a deep, most likely Russian voice "No touching the Lady Mouse!" and twists around to stare at the rude visitor. Dude looked so shocked that the Minnie actor wasn't a woman that he almost ran away.

I had a friend who was played Cinderella. She was one of the kinkyist freaks I ever met. She eventually got fired for sneaking her boyfriend into one of the staff areas, and having sex in costume. There's more to it, but this is a family friendly-ish site. She also made a point of sharing photos of herself in poses while in costume. Really fun person to just hang with.
