The latest episode of The Owl House just made queer history for Disney. The animated fantasy series follows the adventures of Luz, a teenage girl who stumbles across a portal to a magical world.
There, she befriends a powerful witch called Eda and her dog-like demon warrior King, and enrols into a Hogwarts-esque school called Hexside Academy of Magic and Demonics.
In Enchanting Grom Fright, the 16th episode of season one, the series revealed that one of its main characters identifies as part of the LGBTQ+ community.
The episode followed Luz and her enemy turned friend Amity, an abomination expert at Hexsied, as they prepare for Grom – their school’s version of prom.
