Popverse's top stories of the day

Prepare to have your soul torn apart and your screams broadcast to all the disrespectful wretches, as Hazbin Hotel is arguably the best cartoon running these days. From its humble begins on YouTube to now being Amazon Prime Video's most popular animated series ever (sorry, Invincible!), this irreverent and spunky cartoon by Vivienne "VivziePop" Medrano and her crew is your next bad habit - in a good way.

Hazbin Hotel, first launched in 2019, follows the princess of Hell Charlie Morningstar as she tries to subvert Hell's business model and not be the final stop for the sinners (aren't we all), but instead a rehab facility where people can become better. But that's just the story of Hazbin Hotel - and fails to adequately prepare you for the wickedly infectious pop songs and the bitingly dark humor (there's also actual biting involved, too).

Based on a webcomic from Medrano, Hazbin Hotel has grown into an animation franchise - with a spinoff show called Helluva Boss, and new seasons of both in the fiery wings. But as it grows, you might need some help charting your course into hell.

While Hazbin Hotel is just a few years old, there's a lot to watch and read as you check into the hellacious hotelier. Here is it all, including the comics that inspired it:

In the wings is Helluva Boss season 2 part 2, expected to begin in May 2024, with Hasbin Hotel season 2 in the works as well.

If you prefer your road to hell in order, we have organized it all as if you were a resident in Hazbin hotel yourself from beginning to... well, not the end, but to the most recent thing. For this we've excluded things that creator Vivienne Medrano says are no longer canon.

  • Hazbin Hotel webcomic 'A Day in the Afterlife (The Radio Demon)' (2020)
  • Hazbin Hotel 'Addict' music video
  • Hazbin Hotel pilot
  • Hazbin Hotel 'Addict' music video post-credits scene

  • Helluva Boss season 1
  • Helluva Boss season 2, episodes 1 - 7

Would you like to book a stay at Hazbin Hotel or hire a hitman with your friends at Helluva Boss? Good news! Hazbin Hotel is available to watch now on Amazon Prime Video - all except the Hazbin Hotel pilot episode, which is available free on YouTube.

The spinoff series Helluva Boss is also available free on YouTube, on creator Vivienne Medrano's Vivziepop channel.

Can a 13-year-old watch Hazbin Hotel?

Well, anyone can watch Hazbin Hotel if they have access to YouTube or an Amazon Prime Video account. But should you? Amazon has rated Hazbin Hotel as for those of us 16 years of age and up, due to "Violence, substance use, alcohol use, smoking, foul language, sexual content."

Will there be a season 2 of Hazbin Hotel?

Again, good news! Amazon Prime Video has confirmed Hazbin Hotel season 2 is in development now, and creator Vivienne Medrano has said they expect the wait between seasons to be less than the wait between the pilot and season 1 - so, you can expect Hazbin Hotel season 2 in 2025 or 2026, unless someone makes a deal with the devil.

Is Hazbin Hotel a spin off of Helluva Boss?

Yes! While the Helluva Boss animated series debuted before Hazbin Hotel season 1, Helluva Boss is a spinoff of Hazbin Hotel. Helluva Boss is set in hell (just like Hazbin Hotel), but it focuses on devilish business offering hitman servies to the land of the living.

Did Helluva Boss get cancelled?

You'll go to hell for passing off rumors as fact, but no, Helluva Boss isn't canceled - in fact, Helluva Boss season 3 is expected this summer.
