**Hooty** is the title character and one of the eleven main characters of the animated series, *The Owl House*. He is a small wooden owl head attached to the front door, who serves as the guardian of the Owl House.

Hooty is also the house itself and controls everything in the Owl House. He can feel pain if parts of the house are attacked. He can also use an elongated neck to stretch out from the door to play in the mud or travel to distant parts of the Isle.

In the episode "Echoes of the Past", Hooty reveals he can disconnect with the house and ride in a cuckoo clock style backpack to travel to areas not on the Isle itself. Doing this however, he exposes his internal organs causing people to get sick at the sight of it.

## Background

Hooty's origin remains unclear. In Something Ventured, Someone Framed, he mentioned that Eda has acted as his teacher sometime in the past, but the details of this are vague at best. In Understanding Willow, he mentioned that it all started with a hunt and the skies were blood red. Hooty has a habit of barging, or rather slithering, into rooms or situations unannounced and sometimes holds conversations with inanimate objects and insects. He lacks social skills and practically puts off anyone he comes into contact with including Eda, King and Luz. Due to being ignored by everyone frequently, it can be assumed that his surreal personality is due to him suffering from severe loneliness. In Understanding Willow, Gus Porter did seem to find him more interesting than either Eda or King, but quickly became victim to Hooty's eccentric ramblings while interviewing him. Nevertheless, Eda mentioned in Agony of a Witch that while Hooty can be annoying sometimes, he still has a place in her heart. In the same episode, Eda reminded Luz to feed Hooty before turning into the owl beast, suggesting that she secretly cares about Hooty.

### Appearance

Hooty resembles the head of an owl with a small beak, a golden brown crown, a light brown face and dark brown eyes.

## Trivia

* In the Russian dub, Hooty is called Sychik.
* In "A Lying Witch and a Warden", Hooty extends his mouth open to allow people to enter the house. However, he does not ever display this ability ever again. Instead, he opens up like a regular door.
* In "Covention," Eda uses her staff to create multiple heads similar to Hooty, and they could also elongate their body.
* According to Dana Terrace in her reddit AMA, Hooty has an evil twin sibling named "Booty."
* In a table read of an *Owl House/Amphibia* crossover panel treat during the 2021 Comic-Con, Eda briefly mentions something about Hooty being a "Kitten" to Luz, but doesn't explain what she meant by it. Whether what Eda said about Hooty is true or was only created for the table read alone, is unknown.
* Alex Hirsch originally provided Hooty's voice as a temporary placeholder for the pilot, while Terrace searched for an actor to voice him in the series proper, but she ended up enjoying his performance and became his official voice actor.
