My wonderful nieces Christine, Jen, and Grace poses with Belle and Beast!

A Character From the Movie: Beauty and the Beast

Common or Rare: Some Weeks Out A lot; Some Weeks Not!     (Click to see common/rare scale)

Note: Fully admit our family is taking a break from Disney and are no longer updating this site at this time (2009). Information is probably out-of-date.

Best Spot for meeting this character (if there is one!): France at Epcot

Your Chances of Finding This Character: Medium; can hit on a bad week when he's not out

General Info: Beast is the unnamed prince who was turned into an hideous creature, but alas was loved by Belle because of his wonderful heart. He is a character from the 1991 Disney movie Beauty and the Beast. At Disney World, he often makes appearances in France at Epcot. He could be out on the sidewalk, or inside a little room ("The Library") near the gift shop. Belle is usually with him. In recent years, Beast has also been making appearances at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas parties at Magic Kingdom, usually in the area across from the Peter Pan ride, in the stroller lof for the Small World ride. Beast has been quite consistant in this location at the prior Christmas parties. But for the everyday guest, France is definitely the place to find him, though you can hit a week when he's not out. We always wonder what his real name is, but Belle won't say. And don't worry, he usually is quite a gentleman when he does meets!


Places to find Beast:

Special - (Christmas Party) - Old Skyway Landing across from Peter Pan Ride in Fantasyland (Magic Kingdom)
Often - France on the Main Sidewalk (Epcot)
Sometimes - France inside the Library next to gift shop (Epcot) (inclement weather spot)

Character Hunting Tips: - Finding a beloved character can be a child (or adult's!) highlight of a trip to Disney World! On this page, we listed a character we met, also the places we seen this character on our week-long trips (Jan 2003, May 2003, Oct 2003, Jan 2004, April 2004, Oct/Nov 2004, April 2005, Oct 2005, December 2005, January 2006, May 2006, November 2006, February 2007, September 2007, January 2008, October 2008). Some characters were found by some fellow character hunters who were nice enough to help us out! Unfortunately, we aren't local to Florida (wish we were!!!), so we certainly don't know everything about every character! But we tried to list good places to look and recent reliable sightings of that character!

Must say, sometimes finding a favorite character can be difficult! One day you may see a bunch of characters in one spot, and the next day - not one! Some characters may be everywhere on one trip, and nowhere the next! And some characters come out only for 10 minute meets, then don't return for hours! Yikes! Your best bet to find your favorite character is to read various character websites (check links here!), or ask at Guest Relations at a Disney World park or resort (sometimes they can tell you where a character is meeting people that day), or check the Times Guide Map that you pick up when you enter the Disney World parks. Or just wander around and constantly look everywhere you go! Good luck character hunting!!
