figment1986 is correct - George is a purported ghost lurking at Pirates. There are any number of (conflicting) backstories and legends about George. This is even mentioned in David Koenig's new (and pretty good) book Realityland - Adventures in the Magic Kingdom. (I recommend that book for anyone wanting a history of "The Florida Project," and how it fared in the days and years after Walt's passing. It has some pretty nifty background about Epcot, and goes some way to explaining why that park is the way it is. not perfect, but I don't know any other book that devotes as much space to the topic.)
