Prime Video darling Hazbin Hotel is back for season two, and it looks like a war is brewing over who gets to rule its fiery pits.
The season two teaser trailer for Vivienne Medrano’s cult animated series is big on the looming threat as Charlie Morningstar (Erika Henningsen) faces the rise of Vox. The television-faced villain aims to take over by steamrolling over Hazbin Hotel’s mission to rehab sinners and create unholy chaos in hell.
Watch the trailer below:
The eight-episode season will premiere on October 29. Thankfully, the release schedule will allow for breathing room, as two episodes a week will drop from its premiere through November. We can’t wait to see how the events from season one come into play with the power dynamics in hell and heaven shifting.
There’s a lot going on for Charlie and Vaggie (Stephanie Beatiz) to step in along with their ragtag group, who are hellbent on seeking redemption for those who want it. Unfortunately the powers that be above and below are determined to shake things up to exploit the weaknesses left in the wake of Lucifer (Jeremy Jordan) going dark. We’re also excited to see the debut of Fall Out Boy lead singer Patrick Stump as Abel, which will make for more incredible music numbers.
Medrano’s dedicated fanbase will also be excited to learn that seasons one and two of Helluva Boss, a Hellaverse spin-off series in the franchise, will premiere on September 10 with a new episode, “Mission: Zero.” Season two of Hazbin Hotel kicks off October 29 and runs through November 19.
