Hazbin Hotel

 is an adult animated musical Horror Comedy web series created by Vivienne Medrano. It is set in the same universe as another animated series called Helluva Boss.

You know that old line of "when Hell is full" and all that? Well, Heaven has a solution to that little problem: annual purges of the population. It's not pretty (but then again, nothing in Hell usually is), but it gets the job done. Until one day when Charlie Magne, the princess of Hell, makes an alarming announcement: sick and tired of losing so many of her people, she has set up a project to reduce the population of Hell another way: reforming damned souls and sending them to Heaven.

Of course, this plan gets mocked as a pipe dream, but with a little support from a mysterious and extremely powerful demon named Alastor, known throughout Hell as "the Radio Demon", her dream may yet become a reality. The show is centered on the exploits and misadventures of Charlie, her girlfriend Vaggie, and their first client — a spider-like drag-queen mobster/pornstar named Angel Dust — as they try to reform the various types of demons that come into their hotel.

The pilot episode was released in October 28, 2019, and can be found here on YouTube. On August 7, 2020, the media company A24 announced that they had picked up Hazbin Hotel to air on television, with further information on its production and premiere pending. Also see the official website, which includes comics based on this show.

A-I

 * The Ageless: The damned don't age after they die and become demons, as Angel Dust and Alastor can attest to, having died decades ago.
 * Alliterative Name: The titular Hazbin Hotel, as well as its original name the Happy Hotel.
 * Animal Motifs: In conjunction with the above, many of the demons have this.
 * Vaggie's is moths.
 * Angel's is spiders.
 * Sir Pentious' is snakes.
 * Alastor's is deer.
 * Niffty's is cockroaches.
 * Animated Musical: An adult animated series set in Hell that has musical numbers.
 * Cast Full of Gay: The pilot introduces six characters who are meant to be the main cast as they run the hotel. Among them, Angel Dust and Vaggie are gay, Charlie is bisexual, Alastor is asexual, and Husk is pansexual. Additionally, out of the main villain trio, Valentino is pansexual and Vox is also queer in one shape or form.
 * Cute Monster Girl: Charlie and Vaggie would count, as would some other female demons like Niffty.
 * Dark Reprise: The appropiately named "Alastor's Reprise" is Alastor singing more cynical rendition of Charlie's song, "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow".
 * Demon of Human Origin: Most of the demons in Hell are the souls of human beings who died.
 * Dragons are Demonic: A few of the background demons have vaguely draconic designs. One such example is a dragon-like demon in a leather jacket seen watching Charlie's interview in a bar.
 * Even Evil Has Standards: Apparently. The poster for Jeffrey Dahmer's cooking show in the broadcasting room has a sticky note attached to it reading, "Who APPROVED this show?" As if even the denizens of Hell don't want much to do with Dahmer.
 * Everything's Better with Dinosaurs: A few of the demons in Hell are just straight up dinosaur demons.
 * Evil Is Sterile: Played With. According to a Q&A, sinners who've died and become demons can't have children as an added part of their punishment. Demons who're naturally born in Hell like Charlie and Imps however can have children.
 * Evil vs. Evil: Hell is frequently engulfed by violent turf wars between territorial crime lords like Sir Pentious and Cherri Bomb, both of whom are villains in their own ways. Considering it's Hell and nearly everyone is a damned sinner, every violent conflict between demons is technically an example of evil vs. evil. These conflicts are apparently commonplace enough for Katie and Tom to report it on the news in the same tone as you would a traffic backup or troublesome weather.
 * A particular example happens at the end of the pilot when Alastor mercilessly takes down Sir Pentious' zeppelin.
 * Face Palm: Vaggie's reaction to Charlie's overtly saccharine song.
 * Hell Hotel: Inverted, as the Hazbin Hotel is the only hotel in Hell that tries to reform their clientele so they can ascend up to Heaven.
 * A Hell of a Time: Aside from all the things that make it a Crapsack World, Hell caters to every vice and fetish you can imagine, most of the background buildings are bars, brothels, casinos or nightclubs. You can even buy drugs from a vending machine.
 * Hooker with a Heart of Gold: Vaggie was a prostitute in life and has a stronger moral compass than Angel Dust. Angel Dust himself worked in the Adult Film industry and despite his crude behavior, is the first demon to step up for the redemption program. In secret, of course; he still needs to protect his hardcore gangster persona.
