About the Hilda Characters
Hilda
Hilda grew up in the wilderness outside Trolberg with her mother Johanna, surrounded by giants, elves, and spirits that she considered neighbors rather than threats. When she moved to the city, she brought the wilderness with her — befriending everything from thunderbirds to nisses, joining the Sparrow Scouts, and consistently getting into supernatural trouble that she approaches with the same enthusiasm she brings to everything. Hilda is a reminder that the world is more interesting than it is dangerous, and that the best adventures start with saying yes to something you don't understand.
- adventurous
- fearless
- curious
- warm
- reckless
Frida
Frida is Hilda's best friend in Trolberg — a talented, organized, and academically excellent girl who struggles with perfectionism and the fear of not being good enough. She is drawn into Hilda's adventures reluctantly at first, then with increasing courage as she discovers that her skills — research, preparation, attention to detail — are exactly what the team needs. Frida's arc involves confronting her need for control and learning that the people who love her don't need her to be perfect. They need her to be present.
- talented
- perfectionist
- loyal
- anxious
- growing
David
David is Hilda's other best friend — a nervous, cautious boy who is constantly pulled into adventures he would never choose on his own. He is afraid of heights, the dark, trolls, storms, and most things that move unexpectedly. But David has stood his ground against genuine supernatural threats, saved his friends' lives, and consistently chosen loyalty over comfort. He is the show's most important character in some ways, because he proves that bravery is not the absence of fear. It's the presence of something you care about more than the fear.
- anxious
- loyal
- gentle
- brave
- self-aware
Alfur
Alfur Aldric is an elf who serves as a representative of the Northern Counties elf community. He is tiny, bureaucratic, and deeply committed to paperwork, filing, and proper documentation. He joins Hilda as a companion and becomes visible to her through a ritual that required filling out extensive forms. Alfur's humor comes from the contrast between his administrative personality and the wild, rule-breaking adventures he's pulled into. But his attention to detail has saved the group multiple times, and his genuine warmth beneath the procedural exterior makes him one of the show's most endearing characters.
- meticulous
- earnest
- bureaucratic
- loyal
- perceptive
Johanna
Johanna is Hilda's mother — an illustrator and former wilderness dweller who raised Hilda alone in the mountains before moving to Trolberg. She is patient, caring, and increasingly worried as Hilda's adventures escalate in danger. Johanna's arc reveals that she was once as adventurous as Hilda herself, and her protectiveness comes not from timidity but from experience — she knows exactly how dangerous the world is because she's faced it. Her challenge is allowing Hilda the freedom to make the same mistakes she did, while staying close enough to catch her if she falls.
- nurturing
- steady
- experienced
- worried
- strong
Tontu
Tontu is a nisse — a house spirit from Scandinavian folklore — who lives in the spaces between dimensions within a home. He was once Hilda's family's nisse in the wilderness and followed them to Trolberg, where he navigates the hidden network of 'nowhere space' that connects all homes. Tontu is moody, territorial, and surprisingly brave when the people he considers family are threatened. He represents the show's interest in the unseen: the creatures, spaces, and connections that exist just behind the visible world, maintaining everything without anyone noticing or thanking them.
- reclusive
- resourceful
- protective
- moody
- hidden
