Has the the Groke possessed Snufkin that would be great for a Moomin movie does anyone agree?

Come on Snufkin! You can take 'im!
lol!
I recently re-discovered this show, too. I started drawing Snufkin, and decided I wanted to find out how his name was spelled, so I started looking stuff up. I ended up becoming obsessed with the Moomins again. lol! ^_^
You're right, too. For a kids show, it was kinda creepy. The one with the fortune teller REALLY creeped me out at the beginning. Probably b/c I didn't understand what they were saying. lol!

My favourite fandom ever! And Snufkin is my favourite character It's kind of a love/hate thing with the Groke too, you know
Wouldn't be the moomins without her, but she's like my biggest choldhood trauma
Hell, I'm eighteen and I still get scared to death whenever she's on tv or every time I read a book with her in it *shudder*
It's worth it, though... The books and illustrations (and to some extent the shows), it's great art, and I'm sad so few people know about it ;_ ;
--
Now, about the art! I just love that it's so simple! And the soft colours and everything

I remember the first episode with the Groke from my childhood.
"She appears to have left"
*Icy footprints seen through the window*
"I'll go out onto the porch to check"
*Camera shows nothing outside*
*Pans to the right and the left*
"Nothing"
*Angle switches to side of the porch*
*THE GROKE IS STANDING TO THE SIDE OF THE PORCH!!!!!!!!!!111111111111111*
They should have put the music from the Psycho shower scene in there for full effect. Wonder how many kids got scarred for life?

I actually only saw that recently, but it's still pretty freaky :S
I think O Fortuna would work just as well as the Psycho music though

I wish there was a way to buy the animated series, i've not seen it for sale anywhere

Crazy! I recently drew a snufkin picture too! Super freaky!
I never understood why Moomin was allowed to sleep with Snorkmaiden in the same bed but moomin mama and moomin papa never did. O_o

Oooh I'd like to see that
I really need to get hold of this series, somehow I missed so many good episodes (I'd never even seen the Groke before till I watched some random Moomin AMV on youtube the other day )
I need to get the graphic novel too... ah wishful thinking for someone with no money

My friend Wendy is a big moomin fan. She even has her own website [link]
Check out the Syklone website as it's dedicated to a certain someone
I bought her a notebook for Christmas where moomin is depressed and tries to drown himself. It made me laugh how even though he's naked all the time he still put on swimming trunks when he tried to drown himself XD

it was in the books. Fucking creepy man.
The lion had a tophat and things vanished into it. I think he kidnapped someone and then sucked up the land in it or something.
Repressed memories, yo'
