Stromboli is one of the main antagonists of Disney's second full-length animated feature film Pinocchio (which is based on the 1883 Italian novel The Adventures of Pinocchio by the late Carlo Collodi). He is also Pinocchio's archenemy and the evil counterpart of Geppetto.
He is based on Mangiafuoco, the puppet master of the novel. Mangiafuoco was willing to burn Pinocchio because he ruined his show, but ends up sparing him and gives him 5 gold coins. Stromboli is much more villainous than Mangiafuoco and never gives the hero any help, intending to exploit him as long as he can instead.
