Weird Admission: I've always called Belos/Philips monster form a Wendigo. My brain saw antlers and lanky limbs and thought of those spirits of hunger and starvation.

Fun Fact! Wendigos never really had antlers/deer skulls until Stephen Kings Pet Semetary. Then, they were all the rage. Look up some pictures of the OG wendigos, they're real cool.

So, can we just talk about the way that Philip's apparent ability to possess corpses didn't come into play this special?

I mean, the credits to King's Tide and the first half of the special showed Philip observing our crew from afar/implicitly roaming around Gravesfield on his own, and Hunter wasn't a corpse when he got possessed (aka being literally infected by touching Gooplos without a covering over his sowing machine puncture wound), so this corpse possession seems to be setting up something for the next two specials.

Or as Golden Demise on the TOH server suggested, there is one particular corpse that Philip could try his hand at possessing...

Though then again, last we saw of the Boiling Isles, it was being ripped apart by the Collector to build an Owl House for "Owl House," and possessing the Boiling Isles would utterly destroy everyone's home, so perhaps that option might not be quite as viable for possession - let alone the maximum at which the Owl Crew will be pushing the boundaries.

After all, there ARE the multitudes of other Titan remains scattered across the Demon Realm with one big graveyard on the other side of the world at that, which I would not be surprised if we travel back to at some point during the next two specials with the Collector's help.

And with so many corpses all in one place, what's to say that Philip can't potentially combine them in an effort to take out the Collector. Whereas one titan could only seal them away, just imagine what a horrific chimera of several titan corpses could potentially do.

Sure would be a great opportunity to flex the crew's inspirations from Fullmetal Alchemist even more, amiright?

            We got ANOTHER promo y’all!!! It’s technically a trailer but it’s thankfully very brief, given the runtime it’s hyping up is only two episodes, compared to usual TOH trailers that are advertising at least nine episodes! This is an official release and NOT a leak!

         First off, Luz’s laptop!!! She’s doing this 11:09 pm at just 20%, she’s got references to Stardew Valley and Hollow Knight on her desktop, and I think that one Hades game? The one with Zagreus? Anyhow the Hollow Knight references are REAL, coupled with the S1 intro, makes you wonder if it influenced stuff like Hollow Mind…!

         Luz also has a Good Witch Azura fanfic file! And she’s recently made art since her return to the human world; You can’t see all of it, but it appears to the Owl House’s roof, in a parallel to how the intro usually ends with Luz, Eda, and King on the roof when she ignites a light spell and pushes it into the sky! Augghhhh she’s coping…! And her username is @FriendofOwlsandTitans… Oh my GAWD! She accepts King as a TITAN she’s a friend to TITANS!!! Original art do not steal, just like her GF!

         “All I ever wanted was to be good at something”… Good lord, if that doesn’t summize SO much about Luz. Her feelings of inadequacy. Her initial dreams of being a chosen one. Her desire to help others and be of service to them. Her need to JUSTIFY her own existence, to quote her girlfriend… That hit hard. Like I know but OW.

         She’s making video diaries again as we guessed, but this time to HERSELF; Girl needs a place to vent, good for her! She probably stayed up and snuck to the kitchen to let herself indulge in her dark feelings and thoughts alone. Did Luz make a video for Eda and King and eventually give up, being forced to confront herself inward without any distractions? She says she knows what she has to do now, is… Is Luz about to do something rash? Something involving Belos? Babey don’t hurt yourself, or maybe she just means the general principle of making thing right!

         Then skipping past stuff we DO know, we see Luz and Hunter dressed up for Halloween! Hunter has a HOOTY mask, likely meant to invoke his Golden Guard persona, and Luz is honoring King OH MY GAWD WAAAIIIIII!!!!! She’s MOURNING her Titan brother, just like she mourned Eda! They’re in a dilapidated house, the shack where the Portal opens? They’re armed… Probably investigating paranormal activity, AKA Belos. This fits with another shot of them entering a basement with the same coloring as the house, atop the stairs!

         We get a proper look at Amity and Gus’ new designs in the show’s own art style! They look AMAZING… They painted Hooty’s face on the door, pffft, but also ouch. The longing. Treating this place as an earthly version of the Owl House because it kind of is with its role and even coloration! If they miss Hooty you KNOW it’s been a while. Willow must’ve grown flowery vines outside to spruce up the place, it seems to have been converted into a fulltime hideout! If this was the old Wittebane home, I’m sure Caleb would appreciate it… Philip on the other hand.

         The door seems to have just… Opened on its own as Amity looks back. Or did somebody, probably Luz and/or Hunter (seeing a glimpse of Gooplos?) quietly leave, and Amity only notices when she hears the door swinging behind them?

         We have a hand, either Amity, Willow, or Hunter’s, reaching out to some glow-in-the-dark night decorations; Including a symbol of the moon and sun. This is likely one of the characters mourning and being reminded of the Collector, rather than in-universe connection.

         We see our cast, sans Luz, looking at some sort of box with styling reminiscent of the Portal! Not only does it suggest it was actually Caleb and his wife who made it (and Philip plagiarized), but also! Caleb must’ve left it behind in the human world. When Flapjack was pecking at the floorboards, was it to find this? It must be a clue, perhaps on how to make a portal, a Titan’s blood rift, etc.! Is this distraction what got Luz to sneak out earlier?

         There’s some sort of book page we see next, presumably the contents of the box the kids found given their hands! I’m not sure the significance of the symbols, but the bottom one reminds me of the curse… Or is it just a reference to Clawthornes loving birds, AKA his wife? Is that some sort of teardrop? Maybe it’s Titan’s Blood and that’s meant to be a FURRY arm of a Titan! And what even IS that thing to the right?!

         Hunter says “Did you know that HE was here?!” In a distressed voice. Is this him potentially confronting one of our protagonists for keeping information about Gooplos’ potential survival, regardless if they actually knew and were hiding? Or him talking about Philip and Caleb to perhaps Luz, with the realization that either was a town founder, and inquring as to how Luz didn’t notice!

         Then we get Gus and Hunter THE BROS dressed up for Halloween, Hunter doesn’t want to hear spoilers because Gus is likely talking about a recent human hyperfixation of theirs! Brothers.

         And then, finally… Luz and Hunter aren’t here, it’s just the other kids, maybe those two are at some other part of the zoo more personal like the aviary…

         WE GET THE LONG-AWAITED ANSWER TO THE GIRAFFES!!! AFTER TWO YEARS, ARGUABLY THREE IF YOU CONSIDER WHEN THE FIRST TEASER THAT MENTIONED GIRAFFES WAS RELEASED!!! Since the very beginning, we have been haunted by this question and whether they’d answer it, but now… NOW…! It all comes to light.

        The kids are obviously scared and locking arms in preparation, that’s so cute, venturing into ancient territory that hasn’t been traversed for generations. WILLOW HAS HER HAIRCLIP FROM WING IT LIKE WITCHES!!! Was it a gift from Amity, I MISSED IT SO MUCH! She takes a picture and a Giraffe, recognizing natives from its home realm, FREAKS… 

       We get one idea of why Giraffes were banned and it makes sense. God the kids’ reactions are so funny. Of course Willow the Bravest is bold enough to step ahead and take pictures for the rest! This is such adorable levity and I appreciate the closure, this is their one chance so of course they’d take it after two months of debating if they should risk it! Mayhaps they regret that risk now.

Happy 1 year anniversary of ‘Thanks to Them’ airing and the start of season 3 of the Owl House!! 🥳 (can’t believe it’s been a year where did the time go)

To celebrate this event (and also for the Belos fan takeover) have some possessed Hunter and Gooplos (featuring Flapjack flying off into the distance).

Goop belos is just-

Belos: sees a Caleb-shaped person

Belos: BROTHER YES THAT IS MY BROTHER HOW DARE YOU LEAVE??? YOU LEAVE BELOS??? MY BROTHER YOU SHAN'T LEAVE ME AGAIN- promptly tries to kill anyone near his """"his brother""""

(side note it's cannon that goop belos got hit by at least one (1) car :] )

FR he sees a blond person or a bird and is like "Oh my god Caleb. Caleb where have you been. Don't ever leave me again!!!" *possesses you possesses you possesses you*

gooplos sees a Caleb or perhaps a Hunter and immediately infiltrates his bloodstream through an injury. Cause he's Normal and thats a Normal reaction.

what can I say he's just a Quirky Old Man like that 🤪

also I've decided that Belos got hit by a car just because. Because its fun and he likes it. He found out he liked getting splattered at high velocity when the collector did it at the end of season 2 and now he just cant get enough of it! This is one of many normal traits to add to his Normal Traits list

Okay, I just thought about something that I think is interesting.

THEORY TIME!

I think now that there's witches in the human realm, this Jacob Hopkins curator from Yesterday's Lie will come back. I mean, he's got a security camera in and possibly around that house that has the portal and he's bound to have seen something from when they entered.

My prediction is that the gang will discuss what they've learned about Belos in the first part of the first 44 minute long episode. Luz is also eventually going to have to tell them about how Belos is a witch hunter and came from the human realm.

Luz then remembers and mentions the history museum that Jacob works at and decides to go in search of further information about Philip and Caleb, however they have to keep a low profile. Jacob will run into them and he'll recognize them from his videotape.

Some stuff will happen, but I think there's two ways this can go:

Jacob will either be an outright villain this time, but Luz and co. will defeat him somehow and get more info about the history of witches and also Phillip and Caleb.

Or maybe Gus, Luz, and the others will strike a deal with him so that they can both learn about each other's worlds, but Jacob has to keep his mouth shut and not tell anyone. This will also lead to more information about the history, magic, and the Whittebane brothers.

Either way, the main point here is that I think they'll learn something significant from this guy since he's their only lead that can possibly help them get back home and lead into the next episodes.

To me I think it sounds the most likely that the first episode will lean into this. I mean it makes sense to bring back a character that knows about the demon realm a bit.

And who knows, maybe if it goes the route of them making a deal with him, maybe he'll have a small character development and see them and by extension the rest of the boiling isles as not so bad after all. Or just become slightly friendly yet annoyed with them.

I also think there's some parallels between Jacob and Gus:

Gus is a witch obsessed with the human realm.

The curator Jacob, is a human with an obsession for the demon realm.

Maybe if the plot goes to the second route with the deal, maybe they'd strike one because they both have a common goal: to save their own realm.

If I remember correctly, Jacob said he saw himself as a good guy in yesterday's lie.

Gus would also want to protect those he left behind in the boiling isles like his dad. Or Eda, King, and Willow's dads.

Maybe it'd be a mutual agreement to have them learn about each other's realms for the greater good or something?

Also, I think Gus did say in "Hunting Palismen" that he wants to be a human ambassador to the human realm, so maybe something will happen between these two sharing their interests in each other's realms or something similar.

But this is just a theory.

Also sorry if this is long, my mind was in theory mode. I came up with this really fast.

If the first episode doesn't go anywhere near this direction, I'll be honest, I'll be surprised as I can't think of any other way it'll go down.

Oooh, yeah I like this line of thought. After all, if Vee was running into him I don’t see how six witches running wild wouldn’t!

For how they run into him… I think there are two main possibilities. Actually, I think it’ll depend what gooplos does. (Gooplos being the Belos sludge we saw at the end of the credits in that finale)

First option: gooplos starts trying to reform, eating squirrels and stuff for nutrients. Here, the kids would be able to play to Jacob’s hero ego and have him help them out. Stuff like “oh, there’s an alien trying to invade, help us find stuff so we can beat the alien and seal the portal they’re trying to come through.” (Of course this would require disguises and lying to him about specifics but that just makes stuff fun :3)

Second option: gooplos gets Jacob on his side. This’d probably be more of a parasitic thing. Belos sludge mind controls him somehow, or maybe acting more as a voice in the ear telling him Luz’s friends are witches so he’lol do what Belos wants. Then Luz and Co. have to try and avoid him while gathering info like what you said!

Also the parallel you said with Gus and Jacob is interesting. I feel like Jacob is someone where that interest has turned into an unhealthy obsession, but Gus doesn’t exactly have a problem with human stuff in the same way, so I don’t see him acting as a foil/example.

If they do end up allying with Jacob, maybe his knowledge of human history in the are would be interesting for Gus to talk to him about though! One idea I’ve seen floating around is how this would be the worst possible introduction for Gus to the human world: his first rain being so tragic, seeing Philip’s memories of witch hunters, meeting Jacob, etc. However, Gus does want to be an ambassador to the human realm. This could be an opportunity for him to see humanity in a more complete way than just the idealized version he’s pieced together from artifacts.

Yes, there were witch hunters in the past. Humans hurt people, are hateful. But so are witches; Gus has seen that much. And just like with witches, there are humans that are better and that will help the people that are being hunted down. Actually, I haven’t watched the ep in a while but I think Jacob was pretty supportive of witch hunters. Maybe that’s something where they’re troubled to see Jacob so supportive, but then it’s a comfort to find out that nearly everyone else thinks the witch hunts were horrible.

Quick tangent actually: I don’t think Jacob’s ever going to be entirely a good guy. Again, I haven’t watched the ep in a bit, but his head is full of conspiracies and he was only thinking of Vee as something to be dissected. This isn’t the Boiling Isles either, where dissection as punishment for sneaking into a school doesn’t seem out of place. Maybe he’ll get a redemption arc where he realizes witches are people too, but I feel like that’s more a last-second twist than where he starts the special.

Anyways back to Gus! I like the idea of this first special being somewhere we get to see his human interest coming in. Here’s the best opportunity he’ll have in a while to get a head start on being a human ambassador, and I’d imagine he’s going to want something to keep his mind off of that last finale.

Luz showing him human stuff, him learning about human history and culture, Camila showing him human cooking! And even if he does learn about the darker parts of humanity, I think it’ll just end up making him more determined to be an ambassador. It’ll feel less like a fantasy, more like an actual, necessary job.

But yeah to go back to what you were saying, I definitely agree that Jacob feels like someone that’ll show up again. I’m looking forward to seeing what the show does with this first special and the human realm!
