Hilda and the Midnight Giant is the second entry in Luke Pearson's Hilda series following Hilda and the Troll. It was released on November 26, 2011 by Nobrow Press. Alongside its predecessor, it was also reissued as part of the Hilda: The Wilderness Stories collection in 2021.On one peaceful night, Hilda and her mother receive a tiny letter from a mysterious group telling them to move out or face the consequences. Hilda, annoyed, sends the senders back a letter telling them they won't move out.Things take a turn for the worse, however, as Hilda and her mother get their house attacked by the tiny people later that night, convincing Hilda's mum to move out of the wilderness and to the city, much to Hilda's dismay. The day after the attack, Hilda soon meets one of those mysterious tiny people, Alfur, who reveals to Hilda that he is an elf, a race of people hidden from humanity unless they sign a contract. Furthermore, Hilda learns that these elves view Hilda and her family as a threat due to the former unwillingly stepping on the latter's homes. And so, Hilda, teaming up with Alfur, sets off on an adventure to convince the leader of the elves that she and her mom are harmless and to allow them to stay.On the same night of the attacks, Hilda also discovers a mysterious giant who comes around their house at night, causing the curious adventurer to seek him out, figure out who he is, and why he is coming to their home every night.The book would be followed up by Hilda and the Bird Parade. The Midnight Giant, alongside parts of Hilda and the Troll would be adapted into the first two episodes of the 2018 series. It would also receive a novel adaptation as part of the Hilda Tie-In Series under the title, Hilda and the Hidden People. | |

Our Giants Are Bigger | |
| Hilda and the Midnight Giant (Comic Book) / int_dd963bd3 | comment |
Our Giants Are Bigger: The book features a two-page image depicting the giants of old, all of whom vary greatly in size. The smallest are the Forest Giants and Blioa, followed by giants like the Knolem, Brekkus the Thunderworm, and Einarr, who barely reach up to Jorgens’s knee. Gertl is next, being about two-thirds the size of Jorgen. Then there's Jorgen and other giants as tall as him, such as Heimskr, Aldinn, Fjallmarr, and Bjorg. And topping it all off is Har, a giant so big he dwarfs every other giant on the page, and whose head is not even drawn as he is simply too big to fit. | |

Franchise Codifier: Luke Pearson considers this book to be the point at which the Hilda series truly begins to develop its own identity, as it moves away from Hildafolk's breezy and incidental Moomins-inspired tone and establishes the tone, atmosphere, and story structure that would define the series going forward. | |
