One of the best aspects of visiting Walt Disney World is meeting some of our favorite characters. Mickey and friends, the Disney Princesses, and more are always out and about in the theme parks greeting Guests and taking the perfect photo.
Unfortunately, for some younger Guests, meeting their favorite Disney character can be a bit overwhelming.
TikTok user disgirlmagic shared a video of her child petrified to meet Olaf to social media. According to the user, the child loves Olaf and was “so happy to see his picture on the signs”, but once they entered the room and she was met with the real Olaf, her mindset changed and she was terrified. She wrote:
She was so happy to see his picture on the signs… yeah… that was short lived 🫠🫠🫠 #Olaf #DisneyParks #DisneyBaby #DisneyMom #BlackGirlDisney #disneyfail

The mom, of course, made a joke about the whole situation as not only did she post the video to TikTok, but she used the viral “Oh No” sound, making the unfortunate incident a bit more lighthearted.
One commenter chimed in:
Well he isn’t 6 feet tall in the cartoon, so I understand her fear 😂
And another fan wrote:
The TERROR in her eyes😂😂 I was like this as a kid!!!
We hope the poor little girl was able to overcome her fears and meet Olaf, however, if this wasn’t the case — there is always next time!
