Five long years after Vivziepop’s 2019 release of the Hazbin Hotel YouTube pilot “That’s Entertainment!”, the animated musical series returned for its first season on Amazon Prime. However, the highly-anticipated release of Hazbin Hotel season 1 brought with it a major change that was met with criticism from the series’ cult following.

Between the 2019 release of the YouTube pilot and the 2024 release of season 1 via Amazon Prime and A24, Vivziepop re-auditioned each major role, leading to a group recasting of Hazbin Hotel. This new Hazbin Hotel season 1 cast was met with a good deal of pushback from Hellaverse fans who had been following the project since its Patreon-funded inception, and vague communication from the show creator led to speculation about the reasons behind this drastic change. However, the fact that Hazbin Hotel season 1 set a Prime Video streaming record seems to indicate that the change may have been for the better.

Helluva Boss features a vibrant cast of complex demon characters living in the same universe as Hazbin Hotel. Helluva Boss emphasizes themes of complicated romantic relationships among its wacky characters. Blitz, Stolas, Loona, Millie, and Moxxie are all among Helluva Boss' best characters.

Hazbin Hotel's sister series Helluva Boss features additional amazing characters, extending the cast of colorful and complex demons who populate Vivienne "VivziePop" Medrano's version of Hell. Taking place in the same universe as Hazbin Hotel, Helluva Boss follows the adventures of the business known as I.M.P. (Immediate Murder Professionals). The intrepid team of Imps travels to the world of the living to assassinate people at the behest of their clients; however, like with Hazbin Hotel, the morbid premise of Helluva Boss is only the beginning of a story about friendship and ingenuity.

Hazbin Hotel, the raunchy animated pilot, is finally becoming a fully-fledged series on Prime Video, following its successful debut on YouTube. The events of the pilot are considered canon, but the series will set the correct lore of the world, and some visual changes have been made. The new series will feature a new cast, with notable actors taking on the roles, and Bento Box Entertainment is teaming up with SpindleHorse Toons for the animation. The series will debut on Prime Video in January 2024.

After Hazbin Hotel rocked the internet in 2019, followed by the successful spinoff series Helluva Boss, this raunchy animated pilot is finally coming to Prime Video via A24 as a fully-fledged series. Hazbin Hotel tells the story of Charlie Morningstar, the princess of Hell, as she develops a controversial program to "rehabilitate" the numerous demons residing down below: the eponymous Hazbin Hotel, where demons check-in and redeemed souls check out.
