Hazbin Hotel is based on a pilot which was released on YouTube in 2019, and which gained over 92 million views. Both the original pilot and the subsequent series were created by Vivienne Medrano.

The official synopsis for the animated musical series says: “Hazbin Hotel follows Charlie, the princess of Hell, as she pursues her seemingly impossible goal of rehabilitating demons to peacefully reduce overpopulation in her kingdom.

“After a yearly extermination imposed by angels, she opens a hotel in the hopes that patrons will be ‘checking out’ into Heaven.

“While most of Hell mocks her goal, her devoted partner, Vaggie, and their first test subject, adult film star Angel Dust, stick by her side.

“When a powerful entity known as the ‘Radio Demon’ reaches out to assist Charlie in her endeavours, her crazy dream is given a chance to become reality.”
