''Hilda and the Troll'' (originally titled ''Hildafolk'') is a 2010 comic and the first entry in Luke Pearson's ''ComicBook/{{Hilda}}'' series.

While exploring the wilderness, a young blue-haired girl named Hilda and her pet deer-fox Twig come across a still troll, much to the former's excitement, as she sits down to sketch the beast. However, she slowly nods off to sleep, causing her to miss the troll before completing her sketch. On their way home, however, Hilda and Twig end up getting stuck in a snowstorm, sending the two on an adventure that causes the young explorer to befriend a strange wooden man known as Wood Man.

The book would be followed up by ''ComicBook/HildaAndTheMidnightGiant'' in 2011. Parts of the story (particularly the encounter with the troll) would also be adapted alongside ''The Midnight Giant'' into the first two episodes of Netflix's ''WesternAnimation/{{Hilda}}'' series.

* AllTrollsAreDifferent: Around here, trolls look like giant rocks.
* BaitAndSwitch: [[spoiler:Just as it seems that the troll is going to eat Hilda, it turns out that it wanted to give her back her notebook.]]
* BookEnds: The book begins and ends with Hilda at peace in her tent during a rainy night.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: In the original release of Hildafolk, Twig had blue fur. This was recolored to white in the paperback rerelease. The Wood Man’s house also looks different in this story, being a wooden building standing in a clearing rather than an ArborealAbode.
* FollowYourNose: Hilda and Twig find the Wood Man’s house by following the smell of the smoke from his fireplace.
* InterfaceSpoiler: The inside cover contains a map of the area around Hilda's home with several locations specifically labeled. [[SubvertedTrope However, they never show up in the actual story.]]
* IronicEchoCut: A variation of this occurs when Hilda and Twig encounter a Giant walking by.
-->'''Hilda:''' A giant! I bet he knows where he's going.
-->(cut to the giant's POV which shows him reading a map)
-->'''Giant:''' Damn it! (looks behind him) Everything looks the same from up here...
* OrwellianRetcon: When it was first published, Twig was drawn with blue fur and a white underbelly, which was kept in the hardcover release of ''Hilda and the Troll''. However, in the later paperback editions of ''Hilda and the Troll'', Twig was recolored as white with little black spots on his back to retain consistency with the other books.
* PunBasedTitle: The original title seems to be a play on ''Huldufólk'' - 'hidden people' in Icelandic.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler:Hilda herself when it turns out that the ringing of the bell that she put on the troll is actually considered the worst kind of torture to trolls.]]
