[edit] Unseen characters
- Various adults (notably, all of the characters' parents, Linus van Pelt's teacher Miss Othmar, Charlie Brown's baseball hero Joe Shlabotnik, and Linus' blanket-hating grandmother). Adults in most of the Peanuts animated cartoons are only heard by the unintelligible (to the audience) sounds of a trombone (woh-woh-woh).
- The Little Red-Haired Girl (Charlie Brown's crush), seen in many animated television specials by the name of "Heather", but never seen in the strip itself (except once in silhouette).
- The Great Pumpkin, whom Linus believes appears in the most sincerely pumpkin patch to deliver presents to good children. The Great Pumpkin may or may not exist.
- The Head Beagle, whom Frieda reported Snoopy to when he refused to chase a rabbit.
