Appearances[]
WALL-E[]
He is WALL-E's pet cockroach and only friend and companion before EVE's arrival to Earth. Hal is extremely resistant, as he manages to not only survive the devastated near-lifeless Earth, but also getting stepped on by WALL-E and shot by EVE without suffering harm.
Hal likes eating Kremies as his food. He stays on Earth when WALL-E leaves the planet because WALL-E orders him to do so.

Trivia[]
- Although Hal is never referred to on-screen by name, he is named after producer Hal Roach. This also provides homage to HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey.[1]
- The chirps that Hal makes were created by speeding up sounds made by a raccoon.
- Hal and the Kreamies he eats/sleeps in references the myth that roaches and Twinkies (what inspired Kreamies) are the only things that can survive the apocalypse.
