Morag, Charlie Brown’s Scottish pencil pal, to debut in a Peanuts special

Morag, Charlie Brown’s Scottish pencil pal, to debut in a Peanuts special

Peanuts’ mysterious character Morag is set to make her official debut in an upcoming animated special.

She is a girl from Scotland who wrote to Charlie Brown, the comic’s central character.

The story began in 1958, when Charlie Brown said his pencil pal was his only real friend.

Schulz revealed Morag’s identity in 1994, and Charlie Brown fell for her before learning he was one of her 30 pen pals.

The comic later dropped the storyline, and a planned animated special about Morag was never made.

A 2021 graphic novel adapted that unused story, in which the Peanuts gang try to help Charlie Brown meet her.

Morag is now due to appear in a new animated special, though the available details do not explain the catch mentioned in the announcement.

Charlie Brown immediately fell in love with her, sight unseen, but got his heart broken at the revelation that he was only one of Morag's 30 pen-pals.
