What Are Whoville People?

Whoville people—often simply called the Whos—are the cheerful, whimsical residents of the fictional town Whoville from Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas. They are known for their:

  • Unique facial features, including petite upturned noses
  • Bright, expressive eyes and long, curly eyelashes
  • Fun, festive hairstyles (Cindy Lou Who’s iconic hairstyle is the most famous)\
  • Joyful personalities and love for Christmas, music, and community

Although they vary widely in height and shape—from tiny Whos to tall Whos—their signature look is playful, colorful, and unmistakably storybook-style. This distinct appearance is why the Whoville filter is so popular: it captures these exaggerated features and transforms your selfie into a charming, festive “Who” character.

Places like Leavenworth in Washington, Dr. Seuss–themed areas at Universal Studios, and certain Christmas markets in Europe capture the colorful, whimsical, festive look many people associate with Whoville.

What does a Who from Whoville look like?

Whos typically have small, upturned noses, bright wide eyes, long curled eyelashes, and rosy cheeks.
