Hooty is a titular character from The Owl House.
Background[]
He is a house demon attached to the door of the Owl House, as he serves as the protector and the house itself.
Physical 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[]
- The whole house, not only the door he resides in, is a part of Hooty's body, so he can feel pain if the house is damaged (such as Eda cracking a wall in frustration).
- In "Follies at the Coven Day Parade", it is revealed that Hooty can remove his skin.
- As seen in "Art Lessons with Luz", Hooty cannot distinguish between a real person and a drawing and very easily freaks out as a result.
- As a demon, Hooty is both a living creature and an object. In the episode "Something Ventured, Someone Framed", Hooty can be seen trying to catch flies in his beak and he mentions that he enjoys eating them, thus implying that he needs to eat in order to survive. This is further emphasized given that the Owl House is alive.
- He, along with the Bat Queen, are the only known characters to be identified as being both sentient objects and demons at the same time.
- He is able to remove himself from the door.
- According to Dana Terrace in her reddit AMA, Hooty has an evil twin sibling named "Booty."
- 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.
