GARGOYLES (1994 – 1996) TV-Series

After being frozen in stone for a thousand years a group of gargoyles wake up in New York City.

They battle (mostly) supernatural threats while trying to adapt to the modern world. Elisa Maza, a police officer is one of the few humans who know about them. She becomes their friend and ally.
Between her and Goliath, the leader of the gargoyles mutual attraction slowly turns into a romantic relationship.

I repeat: This Disney TV series features a CANON RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN A HUMAN WOMAN AND AN ACTUAL MONSTER BOY.❤❤❤

JIM HENSON’S THE STORYTELLER: HANS, MY HEDGEHOG

Reylo vibe recommendation by @shutup-fuzzball who describes it like this: “…its obviously a Beauty and the Beast story but The princess doesn’t just sit and look pretty, she’s an active character like Rey and goes out to find Hans and make things right again between them. I love how Hans is the gentle beast; the scars from his youth much like Kylo/Bens experiences have made him who he is later, into an imposing and even frightening figure until the princess opens up to him and they connect.”

I highly recommend this surprisingly sexy puppet enhanced story. To me there are also Prince Lindworm and East of the Sun, West of the Moon vibes.

It also reminded me of an interesting BatB version from a french fairy tale collection I read very long ago but still can remember. In this version the Beauty marries the literal devil. In their wedding night the devil asks Beauty if he should turn into an animal. Among two or three other suggestions he also proposes to turn into a hedgehog (!). Beauty declines all his offers and rather has him as a his devilish self. 🙄 The devil turns out to be a totally fine and considerate husband btw which is the reason Beauty’s sisters become jealous and start plotting against her. To my never-ending teenage frustration the sisters succeed and Beauty loses her devil husband.

ANYWAY, is there an ancient hedgehog symbolism I don’t know about?
Or does somebody by any chance know this version of the fairy tale? I’d absolutely love to read it again.
