This article is about the animated series, for the race called gargoyles, see Gargoyle.

Gargoyles is an animated television program that aired from October 24th, 1994 to February 15th, 1997.

The series differed from other Disney series in its level of maturity and the darker tone of the program. It drew much inspiration from world folklore, notably Shakespeare, King Arthur legends and Norse mythology.

Opening Lines

A voice-over by Goliath narrates the theme song of the Second Season.

One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled. It was a time of darkness. It was a world of fear. It was the age of gargoyles.
Stone by day, warriors by night, we were betrayed by the humans we had sworn to protect--frozen in stone by a magic spell for a thousand years.
Now here in Manhattan, the spell is broken, and we live again!
We are defenders of the night. We are Gargoyles!

Characters

The series revolved around the adventures of the Manhattan Clan and their human allies, and occasionally, their enemies.
