Title card of the pilot.

Status: Found

The Owl House is an American animated fantasy television series created by Dana Terrace that premiered on Disney Channel on January 10, 2020.

The pilot of the series was produced during 6 months, from April to September of 2017. The art style and character design are similar to the final series, with a few differences:

  • Luz's hair was going to be black, and her shirt had purple stripes.
  • King had amber fur, a yellow-tipped tail, and violet eyes with red sclerae.
  • Amity was going to have a different hairstyle in the pilot, and the prototype design would go on to inspire the pink-striped girl that appeared in "A Lying Witch and a Warden."

According to the available images of the pilot, the series was going to have a darker tone. The only existing material is some short fragments and images shown by Dana Terrace in a live stream. Some storyboards and animations that were made around the time of the pilot have also surfaced over time, however, it's very likely that they weren't meant for the pilot pitch that was sent to Disney themselves. On July 20, 2021, a test animation done by Sugarcube Animation without audio very likely containing some scenes from the pilot, leaked.

Videos

At 1 minute and 11 seconds in the video, a small clip of King is shown where he has a paper bag stuck to his head. Then at the 1:15 mark a bit of footage of the still with Luz, King, and Eda beside each other. Both clips are most certainly from the pilot.

Two test animations and a storyboard of an unknown Luz and King scene, it's unclear if these were made around the pilot's time as King's design looks finalized. A bunch of concept art of different characters and some areas are also shown here, including "William".
