We know for a fact Tyler is not the type of evil he's been painted as being, which raises the issue of whether Wednesday season 2 will allow for his redemption. On one hand, Tyler may be saved if he manages to overcome what has been done to him and is shown to be a better person than we thought during the first season.
Tyler, who was Wednesday's love interest throughout the show, is first revealed as the Hyde in episode 7, after Wednesday has a vision of him as the monster when he kisses her. As Wednesday puts it, “Of course the first boy I kiss would turn out to be a psychotic, serial killing monster.
Tyler is played by Hunter Doohan in Wednesday.
But before he was an actor, he grew up as a big fan of The Addams Family, particularly 1994's Addams Family Values. "Christina Ricci, Anjelica Huston, and Joan Cusack in that movie are so good!" he said in an interview with EW.
The Sheriff, Tyler's father, finally accepts what his son has become and shoots him before he can kill Enid. This wounds Tyler and knocks him unconscious, turning him back into a human, while a bloody Enid heads to Nevermore to find Wednesday.
Unfortunately, the teen's first kiss also leads to one of her visions, which reveals that Tyler is actually the Hyde, the monster in the woods that has been killing people and taking body parts all season.
When Dr. Kinbott got too close to the truth, Thornhill sent Tyler morphed into the monster to kill her and pin it on Xavier, leaving Kimbott's necklace in his art studio where he painted his disturbing psychic visions of the beast.
According to Hunter Doohan (Tyler's actor), Tyler was deceiving Wednesday the entire time and even if he felt any attraction or respect for her, there was no true romantic feelings. Tyler actually hated Wednesday and the rest of the Addams Family, and all of Nevermore because of what happened to his mother.
Wednesday and her friends kidnap Tyler and take him to the jungle to torture him and seek confession. Wednesday gets arrested by the Jericho police for torturing Tyler but while at the police station, Tyler confirms that he is the real monster.
Tyler was represented as a potential love interest for Wednesday but was revealed to be an antagonist in episode 7, when Wednesday saw a vision revealing he was the Hyde.
Laurel Gates, known by her alias Marilyn Thornhill, is the main antagonist of the first season of the 2022 Netflix TV show Wednesday. She and her family were the descendants of early 17th-century Pilgrims and Jericho founder Joseph Crackstone and were born into great wealth.
I think so. Sheriff Galpin knows the truth about his son, and it's his worst fear come true: That he's just like his mom.
Initially, Marilyn Thornhill (Christina Ricci) is the nice botanical science teacher in Wednesday. However, a small detail about Thornhill's coffee order reveals she is the killer. In episode 3, "Friend or Woe," the supernatural Nevermore...
He had a prejudice against Wednesday's whole family, especially her father, Gomez Addams. He considered him responsible for the murder of Garrett Gates, even though his guilt hadn't been proven by the authorities.
Rather than help her, they instead report her to Principal Weems. But Tyler was definitely a murderous psychopath, and even confesses to Wednesday when he thinks he's beaten her. However, Hydes need to be unlocked by a “master”, so he was somewhat under the control of someone with their own agenda against Nevermore.
In this conversation, Tyler reveals the truth to Wednesday — he is the Hyde, fully aware of what he has done. He came to crave the kill, the fear of his victims before he took their life.
In the end, Tyler was the Hyde, but he wasn't the only big bad. Turned out, Thornhill (Christina Ricci) had been controlling him, and together, they'd been on a killing spree. EW spoke with the monster himself, the (not-at-all-monstrous) Hunter Doohan, about his journey on the Netflix series.
He then explains that his mother had warned him that Wednesday would destroy the school and that he had to kill her. As he strangles the girl even more, the monster emerges and throws Rowan backwards before savagely killing him. In the following episode, Wednesday alerts Mrs.
Throughout the show, we learn that the monster is actually Tyler, Wednesday's first-ever crush, who possesses the ability to turn into a ravenous beast on demand.

Kinbott in the wood. After Dr. Kinbott is killed by the Hyde and Tyler is revealed to be the Monster, Wednesday learns that Marilyn Thornhill, a botany teacher at Nevermore (who is played by Christina Ricci, who also played Wednesday in 1991's The Addams Family movie), is the Monster's master.
This is where our suspicions that Laurel Gates texted Wednesday stem from. Given that she wasn't able to carry out her mission of killing Wednesday at the end of Season 1, if Gates did survive the bee and foot attack, the character has more than enough motive to complete her quest of murdering Wednesday.
Wednesday does not end up with Xavier in Wednesday season 1 despite what seemed to be set up by the show. Although liking being alone is one of Wednesday's defining traits in every Addams Family adaptation, Netflix's Wednesday explores the idea that she can find happiness in friends after all.
The monster is Tyler (Hunter Doohan). After Wednesday kisses Tyler, she has a bloody vision of him standing over her therapist, Dr. Kinbott (Riki Lindhome) as the Hyde. She also later finds out his mother was a student at Nevermore and was also a Hyde.
There Wednesday confronts her, and Miss Thornhill reveals herself to be Laurel Gates. Miss Thornhill explains she coerced Tyler into becoming the hyde by showing him motherly affection, after he lost his own mother. Tyler's mother was also a hyde and had attended Nevermore as a teenager.
