3. Character and Personality Traits  Pale, dark-haired, grim-looking little girl who seldom smiles  Fascinated with death and the macabre  Favorite hobby is raising spiders  Shown to have several headless dolls as toys  She also paints pictures (including a picture of trees with human heads) and writes a poem dedicated to her favorite pet spider, Homer  Deceptively strong; she is able to bring her father down with a judo hold

4. Character and Personality Traits Continued BEFORE YOU COMPLAIN, YOU DON’T HAVE TO COPY THIS SLIDE  In the 1991 film, she shows sadistic tendencies and a dark personality, and is revealed to have a deep interest in the Bermuda Triangle and an admiration for an ancestor (Great Aunt Calpurnia Addams) who was burned as a witch in 1706. In the 1993 sequel she was even darker: buried a live cat, tried to kill her brother Pubert, destroyed Camp Chippewa and (presumably) scared to death her boyfriend Joel.  “Child of woe; is wan (pale) and delicate...sensitive and on the quiet side, she loves the picnics and outings to the underground caverns...a solemn child, prim in dress and, on the whole, pretty lost...secretive and imaginative, poetic, seems underprivileged and given to occasional tantrums...has six toes on one foot...”-Charles Addams  In the Broadway musical The Addams Family: A New Musical, she is 18 years old and has short hair rather than the long braids in her other appearances. Her darkness and sociopathic traits have been toned down, and she is in love with (and revealed to be engaged to) Lucas Beineke.

8. Pugsley Fun-Facts  He was originally going to be called "Pubert" (a derivation of the word puberty, possibly a reflection of his age) but it was rejected as it sounded too sexual, and the name Pugsley was chosen instead (the name Pubert was later used when Gomez and Morticia have a third child in the film Addams Family Values)  The Lurch Files' Addams Family Tree lists Pugsley's middle name as Pubert, probably as an homage to Charles Addams' original suggestion  The actor that played him in the original TV series died last year from a year from a heart attack from being overweight
