Did you know: Mulan is Disney’s deadliest princess

Disney's Mulan might just be the deadliest character in cinematic history.

While iconic horror villains rack up high body counts, Jason Voorhees of Friday the 13th sits at roughly 160–170 kills, Freddy Krueger of Nightmare on Elm Street has around 63, and Clive Barker's Pinhead from Hellraiser tops the charts at 321, none come close to Mulan.

In a striking scene from the 1998 classic, Mulan (then known as Fa Ping) and her fellow soldiers under Captain Li Shang are ambushed while navigating a snowy mountain pass. Using strategic artillery, the protagonists halt the first wave of attackers, only for a staggering 2,000 Hun soldiers to charge down the slope. Calculations show that, during this brief but intense battle, Mulan and her comrades eliminate nearly 23 Huns every single minute.

Released on 19 June 1998, Mulan runs for 87 minutes, proving that, even in animated form, heroism can be deadly.
