Spoilers For The Owl House!!

Spoilers for the Owl House!!

I’m gonna try and analyze this note to see who I think wrote it. First off, let’s go over what this tells us about the person who wrote it

1. They know of Luz but they don’t know her personally enough to know her name

2. They know where her mom lives

3. They know that Luz was going to a summer camp to learn about real world stuff. They likely know where that camp is because the letters had to be addressed

4. They know what mortgages are or at least know of the concept of mortgages, which I’m guessing is a human thing

5. The way that they write is stiff which leads me to asssume that they don’t know what a normal mother/daughter relationship is

6. They have a motivation to keep Luz in the Boiling Isles or at least not make her mom suspicious

So let’s go over the possible suspects

Eda

Eda has been to the human world and has opened her portal right next to Luz’s house before. However she’s a con artist and she’s good at it; she wouldn’t let something as obvious as misspelling Luz’s name slip. Plus she knows Luz so it seems unlikely that she’d not know how to spell her name. Another thing is that Eda was okay with Luz going back to the human world in the first episode. Whoever’s writing these notes has presumably been doing this since Luz came to the boiling isles.

King

He doesn’t want Luz to leave, it’s plausible that he wouldn’t spell her name right, and he wouldn’t know how to write from the perspective of a human mother/daughter relationship. But we’ve seen him write before and his handwriting’s different. Also in Really Small Problems it’s seems he’s begrudgingly acknowledged that Luz will leave.

Amity

Her handwriting is similar to that in the note and she wouldn’t want Luz to leave. But she doesn’t seem to know much about the human world and probably hasn’t been there before (this goes for everyone at Hexside). Plus she’s a top student and an avid reader, her writing wouldn’t be this stiff

Lilith

She doesn’t know Luz well and she’s not warm/emotional which would explain why the writing’s so emotionless. But she was surprised to see Luz and especially surprised to see a human, which leads me to think that she doesn’t have access to the human world.

The emperor

A mysterious figure we’ve only heard of in passing. If that beetle looking guy from the trailer actually is him, he doesn’t look like the type who would know how to write some emotional letter. He would probably have to power/means to go to the human world. The writing is in cursive which could be explained by his formality/status.

Now if Emperor Belos wrote the note what does that say about him

- he has been to the human world

- he’s familiar with Luz’s family and what they’re doing but not familiar enough to know Luz’s name first try.

- he has a reason to keep Luz in the Boiling Isles. This one is kinda weird because so far all Luz has done is disrupt the status quo by joining multiple tracks, breaking into the Conformitorium, using unconventional magic, etc... This could support the theory that he’s part/full human and Luz’s dad but idk

I also considered that Amity’s parent wrote it. It’d explain the similar handwriting (it feels deliberate tha we saw her handwriting in the same episode we saw the notes). Plus they have connections to the emperor so that could have some relation.

But if you have any theories leave them below

Here’re my bingo card of predictions for The Owl House’s season one finales! I’ll explain some of these after I watch the episode

Luz definitely has ADHD or some kind of neurodivergency. I have a whole post typed up about this but I keep putting off posting it

So obviously Eda isn’t gonna die/remain the owl beast forever

But

You know who would be a good character to kill off for dramatic tension

I was rewatching the owl house and I noticed that among the graffiti Eda put on the locker in Something Ventured Someone Framed there are multiple ‘hoots’ written.

Since she went to Hexside before she was cursed it can be assumed that her love of owls predated Lilith cursing her. In addition, since the sisters seem like they used to be very close we can assume Lilith knew Eda had a thing for owls. This presents two possibilities

1. Lilith was pressured to curse Eda and since she had to do it she wanted to at least have Eda transform into something she liked

Or (the one I believe to be more likely)

2. Lilith took something she knew Eda liked and turned it into something traumatic for her as an extra way to spite her

I think the latter is more likely considering how Lilith is smart and it’d be dumb to think that Eda would still like owls as much when she’s literally cursed to turn into them. I mean, Eda does own the whole owl motif but I don’t think Lilith would’ve seen that coming
