Gargoyles
“Disney’s Gargoyles” is an animated
television series that originally aired from
1994 to 1997. The series is known for its
relatively dark tone, complex story arcs,
and melodrama.
It features a species of nocturnal
creatures known as gargoyles that turn to
stone during the day. After spending a
thousand years in an enchanted petrified
state, the gargoyles, who have been
transported from medieval Scotland, are
reawakened in modern-day New York City.
They take on roles as the city’s secret
night-time protectors.
The series combines elements of fantasy,
action, drama, and mythology, and is
notable for its Shakespearean themes.
The show’s storyline continued in a comic
book series of the same name, and a live-
action reboot for Disney+ was announced
in 2023. The series is beloved by fans for
its unique premise and compelling
characters.
