Maybe the bellkeeper is part fairy like Hilda? Like maybe some of their traits are having an appeal to cucumber sandwiches, blue hair, and having an affinity to wildlife. But because Hilda's fairy ancestry isn't revealed til the end, Pearson probably realized people were thinking he's her dad, so he removed the blue hair to make it less confusing?

I think it would be so smart if the writers made it so that the bell keeper went to the same boarding school as Joanna, and that’s why he smiled when he saw Hilda reuniting with her. He remembers her from school and I would hope that would make an episode evolving their relationship and Joanna remembering him.

I thought that the Bell Keeper was Johana's brother. It turns out she was an only child, but I think that the possibility that they knew each other is still valid. They may have met in the Sparrow Scotts where they discovered a mutual love for nature which led her to become a painter and, to pay the bills, a graphic designer and him to the Safety Patrol where he could do such things as watch the waff migrations. The meeting between him and Anders during the Great Raven Parade makes me think that they knew each other, may have been brothers. The Bell Keeper may have stayed away when he saw Hilda and Johana together because they had had a bad falling out and he didn't want to reopen old wounds for her. If so, Anders might be able to heal an old friendship.

@andrescalderonmorales1349 5 ай бұрын

I see some comments about how the bell keeper could be hilda's uncle, so here's my headcanon, more than a theory. I like to think that the BK share story with astrid (probably a friend / partner from the past?) like, we just never got to see more of her during her youthful years, just to come back and find his brother is going to be dad... so, maybe she met a young BK at the time she was absent? I mean, it's quite obvious that astrid is older than the bell keeper but, let's be honest, he's not in the same age range as johanna, plus he seems to be older than anders so, maybe he ages like fine wine? (he's not balding haha!).

@wishingonthemoon1 17 күн бұрын

Glad they threw this in to answer a fan theory. Hilda’s dad was the only part of the entire story that bothered me. It was such an emotionally rich storyline with a lot of depth, but it wasn’t explored enough in my opinion. Hilda’s mom explains pretty well (for a child to understand) that he loves her and is doing her best. But that isn’t an excuse that he’s a deadbeat and wasn’t there for her. I feel like they needed that moment of Hilda being like, actually this isn’t ok and you can’t come and go as you please and you have to make an effort, and then he would have a big apology scene or something. Like sure, he loves her, and he cares a little, but not enough of either apparently. Ya, him trying to save her from the fairy island is a bit of a redemption arc, but not really.

Idea, what about making a video about explaining Hilda being strange strong sometimes? For example, in season 3 while she was with her father trying to steal a treasure from a troll she did manage to climb with just only one arm a wooden pole like she did horizontal bar by just using only one arm! It's not just quite impressive but how a 13 years old girl had such strength to do that. I'm much older than her but when I tried once to do horizontal bar I did manage to do almost the half from what she did and I had to use both of my arms, lol. I bet she would beat everyone in arm wresting! Also, in season 2 she did manage to lift a mountain sheep like it was nothing and when she was little she had move a heavy rock to save Twig. Also she throws a chair 20 feet above her head at the time worm. Pretty sure she is being weird strong because of her her fairy generetics.

@Yarocrafter 4 ай бұрын

That's an interesting theory! I never really paid attention to that, but I'd think it's just that she spent the majority of her life in the wilderness, so that's why she's more used to doing things like that

@@Yarocrafter Even if she's well trained of her adventurers it's quite hard from such a young age to have such strength.
