WHO IS THE GRINCH? - MEET OUR LICENCED COSTUME CHARACTERS

Occupation: Self-appointed Christmas spoiler (later reformed to Christmas enthusiast)

Appearance: The Grinch is a green, furry creature with a pear-shaped build, long fingers, and a sneering smile that often curls up to reveal his sharp, expressive features. He’s usually seen wearing a red Santa Claus suit with a fluffy white trim when he’s in his “Christmas-thieving” mode. His yellow eyes are mischievous and cunning, with a hint of sadness or loneliness that speaks to his hidden softer side. He has a distinct, slouched posture, embodying his grumpy and reluctant nature.

The Grinch lives alone on Mount Crumpit, a snow-covered mountain overlooking the town of Whoville. He’s largely isolated, except for his loyal dog, Max, who is his sole companion and, often, reluctant assistant. His distaste for Christmas likely stems from feelings of alienation or previous experiences that have made him cynical toward the holiday. When the Whos begin their holiday festivities, the Grinch decides he’s had enough and devises a plan to “steal Christmas” by taking away their presents, decorations, and food. However, his plan takes a turn when he hears the Whos celebrating together even without the material trappings of Christmas, teaching him that the holiday spirit is something far deeper than he had understood.

This revelation changes the Grinch’s heart and outlook, leading him to return everything he took and join the Whos in their Christmas celebration. By opening himself up to love, community, and connection, the Grinch becomes a symbol of redemption and growth, forever cherished as the once-grumpy character whose heart grew three sizes.
