ORLANDO, FL—Saying they were operative diligently to residence a problem, Walt Disney World officials concurred Wednesday that several dozen unapproved characters, nothing of that have ever seemed in a Disney film or cartoon, had been found in new weeks erratic via a thesis park.

Company sources reliable that during slightest 60 apart people in costumes, including several woodland creatures, several fairies, and what officials described as a walrus in a lab coat, have been speckled nod visitors, hugging children, posing for pictures, and labyrinth into daily parades alongside authorised Disney characters.

If not, greatfully let confidence know immediately.”

“If we are holding your design with Chompers a Iguana, for example, we are not holding a design with an central Disney character,” Aldridge continued. “That’s only a male in an iguana suit. That male does not work for Disney. He doesn’t go here.”

In an bid to seem some-more genuine to park patrons, sources reported that many of a illegal characters have grown their possess perplexing mythologies and unique, non-Disney-affiliated catchphrases such as “Jumpin’ juniper” or “Wowie-kazaam!”

“There was this squirrel over by Splash Mountain who pronounced he was one of a Scurry Brothers and asked if we’d been on his float called a Admiral Acorn Adventure,” pronounced father of dual Troy Milizia from Auburn, NY. “When we pronounced we hadn’t, he brought out a towering bike with a small car cumulative behind it and asked us to bound in. He told us it was only like a stage from his film where he travels down a towering pass in hunt of acorns.”

“The kids desired it, though we had no thought what he was articulate about,” Milizia continued. “Once he stopped pedaling and asked us if we wanted to go again, we only grabbed my girls and got out of there.”

It’s unequivocally really bad.”
