* EvilTowerOfOminousness: The Vees consolidate their power from an imposing high-rise skyscraper which makes itself a permanent and distinctive part of Pentagram City's skyline. It is shown to contain numerous facilities for each of the Vees' occupations, including Valentino's porn studio, Velvette's fashion workshop and Vox's [[SurveillanceAsThePlotDemands surveillance room]].

Added DiffLines:

* BystanderSyndrome: Vox is seemingly aware of what Valentino does to his workers and other people whether it's in or out of his porn studio but doesn't seem bothered and even encourages his violent acts. All he does so far is glare up at Angel Dust at his balcony and disappears.

* DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: Of the TerribleTrio archetype. The Vees carry many trademark characteristics of the trope, being {{Big Bad Wannabe}}s prone to comedic squabbling and flawed schemes. However, only their first appearance plays them straight as TheChewToy, otherwise they thoroughly lack the sympathetic VillainousUnderdog attributes most examples embody, and any setbacks they suffer are buffered by them being extremely powerful and ominous figures in Hell, not to mention some of the most abusive and ruthless Overlords with a good grasp of manipulation tactics. While most of the other Overlords in Hell look down on them, it is implied to be less from their competence heirarchy and more because of the Vees bluntly callous and imperious attitudes compared to the relatively more polite and pragmatic approach of most of their peers.

misuse; When She Smiles is about how the smile is perceived by other characters


* WhenSheSmiles: Carmilla's usual expression is a stoic frown, but she smiles after successfully teaching Vaggie how to fight angels. [[spoiler:And while listening to the news broadcast that the Hazbin Hotel staff and guests successfully defeated the exorcists, she cracks a small, pleased smile.]]

* EvilSoundsDeep: Much like how Alastor can adopt [[EvilSoundsRaspy a much more pronounced version]] of his RadioVoice to sound intimidating, Vox has a much deeper and more distorted version of his voice as well that comes out mostly when he's mad and sounds like a TV speaker being blown out.

* BlackComedyCannibalism: Rosie being a cannibal (and by extension the rest of her Cannibal Town followers) is treated more like a humorously off-color personality quirk of hers than any kind of heinous or reprehensible act.
--> '''Rosie:''' Well, who ''hasn[='=]t'' thought about eating their first husband? I certainly would have if he didn't taste so bad!\\
[...]\\
Can I offer you something to eat? I'm sure I have a leg around here or somethin'!-- Oh, what am I thinkin', small thing like you, you're probably watching your figure! How 'bout some nice pinky fingers instead?

* LovePotion: Going by some background posters and other hints, she apparently uses her skills at potion-making to brew and sell love potions. The kind that [[WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss Ozzie]] strongly disapproves of.

Misuse


* FashionableAsymmetry: One of his two antennae is stylized in a way that makes it look almost like a feathered quill pen, whereas the other just looks like a regular antenna. It somehow manages to not look out of place amongst the rest of his [[PimpDuds gaudy attire]].

* KnightOfCerebus: Played with, while he does take part in many comical moments, his BadBoss elements are PlayedForDrama far more than the other Vees' cartoonish bullying. Unlike the rest of the demons who are LaughablyEvil at worst, he is a terrifyingly realistic example of a DomesticAbuser.

* RideTheLightning: He is capable of turning wholly into electricity and therefore traveling through electrical cable, first shown in "Radio Killed the Video Star" when he traverses numerous floors of the Vees' lair in an instant using this technique.

Foils need to be compared to each other within the work. Asmodeus does not so much as cameo within Hazbin Hotel, much less show up in a capacity to be compared to someone


* {{Foil}}: To [[WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss Asmodeus]]. Both of them are representatives of lust, Ozzie being the king and Val a successful porn director. It is heavily implied by his many mannerisms and attitudes that Val benerates Ozzie and tries to imitate him the most he can. However, while Ozzie promotes consensual relationships, treats his workers with basic respect, can actually be a NiceGuy when he's on a good mood and has a loving and stable relationship with his boyfriend Fizzarolli, Val abuses almost everyone he comes across, specially his workers, his relationship with Vox is volatile and he treats Angel as a money making object rather than a human being, often sexually forcing himself upon him. This is also apparent to their treatment of the Fizz bots, Ozzie is aware what they're made for and feels uncomfortable by making these toys based around his boyfriend who he loves very dearly, while Val treats Kitty as nothing more than a maid, sometimes even throwing objects at her.
