Finally, the doors of the Hazbin Hotel are open and the first demonic guests are ready to be rehabilitated. The highly anticipated animated series comes from Vivienne Medrano, the animator behind the popular YouTube channel VivziePop and the webcomic Zoophobia.
The pilot in front Hazbin Hotel was launched on YouTube in 2019 and amassed a very large fan base. It was picked up by A24 for a full series in 2020. In 2020, the companion series Helluva boss released on YouTube. It takes place in the same world, but follows a different set of characters.
Hazbin Hotel revolves around a hotel in Hell, where Charlie, a princess of Hell, tries to rehabilitate demons instead of killing them. It's an animated adult comedy, joining Prime Video's other animated adult offerings like Invincible And The legend of Vox Machina. Oh, and it's a musical too!
The official synopsis for Hazbin Hotel is below:
Hazbin Hotel follows Charlie, the princess of Hell, as she pursues her seemingly impossible goal: rehabilitating demons to peacefully reduce overpopulation in her kingdom. After an annual extermination imposed by angels, she opens a hotel in the hope that her clients will 'check out' to heaven. While most of Hell mocks her target, her devoted partner Vaggie and their first test subject, adult film star Angel Dust, remain by her side. When a powerful entity known as the 'Radio Demon' aids Charlie in her endeavors, her crazy dream gets a chance to become reality.
The first four episodes dropped on Prime Video on January 12, with the rest arriving weekly through February 4.
