Angsthaas



Angsthaas is a hare from Sesamstraat, the Dutch co-production of Sesame Street.

Angsthaas is always together with Stuntkip. He is a fury reporter who follows the adventures of Stuntkip.

Introduced in 2008, Angsthaas has a minor part in Sesamstraat. He was created in order to introduce the subject of "scary things to do in life for small childeren". He doesn't dare to do the things that Stuntkip does. Like going to the dentist, barber or pick up a ball that they shoot into the garden of a neighbour.

Angsthaas and Stuntkip where created on 17th april 2007 by the crew. This was during a teambuilding day they had on the canals in Amsterdam. The crew show some fotos of possible muppets to expand the Sesamstraat family. When they saw a picture of a chicken with a helmed and protecting glasses the instantly came up with the name of Stuntkip. A great counterpart would then be angsthaas. It stands synonime for someone who really is affraid for everything.
