The Owl House Is Officially Over! Even though I am sad it had to be cancelled Dana and the crew made the most of it and it turned out EPIC! The boss battle at the end anyone?! The epilogue was so gorgeous, everyone’s new looks and also may I just say very gay! Thank you Dana and the crew for giving me and so many other Owl House fans the finale we dreamed of. Thank you for fighting the good fight and Farewell Owl House!

Hello friends,

I have held onto this news for a while now, hoping that we could reverse it, change it, make something good out of it. But sadly I don’t think that’s possible right now.

It’s with a heavy heart that I tell you Dead End is over.

Obviously, we never wanted this to be the case.  In fact, we did a writers room for Season 3.  We have scripts and designs and outlines ready to go.  It was always the plan to give these characters the proper ending they deserve.   But sadly, the powers that be don’t want any more. 

Honestly, we were lucky to make it through everything happening in the last few years.  And I want to emphasize my gratitude to Netflix for commissioning the show and for giving us the freedom to tell this story.  We made history together and I couldn’t be prouder of those twenty episodes and every single member of our crew.

I want to give a huge thank you to the fans.  Your art, cosplay, fic, reactions, TikToks and every interaction with me has been a delight.  I never could have dreamed of a warmer response.  I’ve been so anxious to post this news thinking about you lot.  I hope you’ll be ok. 

So… a sad day.  But I believe we will finish this story some day, some how.  For now, I am working hard on the third and final DeadEndia book which I hope offers some closure.  Our Season 3 plan was based heavily on it.  And I continue to pitch shows with the same heart as Dead End. 

But until then, I hope Barney, Norma, Pugsley, Courtney and the whole Phoenix Parks crew will continue to give you comfort in times of darkness.

This is heartbreaking to me and I am so sorry, Hamish and the crew. I just wanted to say that as an LGBTQ+ and autistic person, this show has brought so much hope and light into my world. Thank you so much for this show, Hamish, Zach, Kody, Alex, Kenny, Kathreen, and the crew. You are so appreciated for the work you’ve done. I have hope that even if this show isn’t brought back, Dead End: Paranormal Park will bring other shows with positive representation of LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent protagonists to us.
