Another thing I am curious about is that creepy red dude that keeps appearing in the trailer. The only thing I know about him is that his name is Alastor just by shifting through Vivzie's tumblr.

Beyond that I know nothing about him other than he likes smiling a lot

The official Hazbin Hotel twitter relatively recently released some character bios.

These are for Charlie, Angel Dust, and Vaggie.

These are for Alastor, Katie Killjoy, and Sir Pentious.

The bios are brief but provide some additional info.

Some highlights are:

  • Like in one of Vizzie's previous artwork of Charlie, it appears that Charlie's birth name is Charlotte.
  • With the exception of Charlie who was born in Hell, all the characters have the years they died in. They range from Sir Pentious who died in 1888 to Vaggie who died in 2014.
  • Alastor is confirmed to be the Radio Demon who backs the Happy Hotel. His bio definitely paints him as a Mysterious Backer who's Ambiguously Evil or at least more ambiguous than most considering the setting.
  • Sir Pentious is a Victorian tryhard inventor who uses his machines, minions, and attempts to be hip to inflict constant failed takeovers of Hell.

Alastor was also formerly a Southern serial killer in life from the 1930s. That kinda explains why he looks so creepy in the trailer. Weird, his cloths look more 20s era to me than 1930s South. Maybe he was a Mafia member?

Allistor was originally gonna be in Zoophobia, in that he was going to be a shapeshifting deer demon that ate other deer spirits and was also a colossal masochist.

That explains his rather odd fandom that he had already.

Not that I have much an issue really. Also, looks like Angeldust is the porn star people were mentioning.

Huh, there's an apple on Charlie's pitchfork. Representing the apple of Eden?

I did NOT know that this was already gaining ground here and I am pleased. :D You Tube popped this up on my recommended list a few months ago and I subscribed, and now with this update I'm looking forward to the series even more.

With an actual full clip of that quality, I decided to give Viziepop 5 bucks a month on patreon. I've loved her style ever since I saw her Die Young AMV, I love the premise of the series, and I figure every little bit helps. Also 5 bucks comes with gifs of completed animation and I love the style, it's got a decent amount of detail while also being very fluid.

New clip with Angel, Charlie, and Vaggie just released.

It's the complete version of this animatic Viv posted some months ago.

P.S. Stay tuned. Something is apparently coming in October 5th.

Damn, that was good. I like that Charlie is apparently the Disney Princess of Hell.

I really want to know how she came to wanting to redeem demons & how much of a psycho she is inside.

Personally I love the "nice person born in a hellworld who is able to see the good in it because it's their home" trope, so I hope she genuinely is just this good and kind.

Randomly ran into this and am hugely into it already I must have watch Inside Every Demon is a Rainbow eighteen times by now. Glad I told youtube to stop recommending me videos of the "THAT THING YOU LIKE IS ACTUALLY BAD" vein.

Can I just say that the animation is packed. I feel like you have to go through some of it frame-by-frame to get the gist of it it's great. E F F O R T!

Oh my God, when Charlie proposed that idea, it was broadcast. That's gotta be real awkward. XD

He's alot livelier than I expected, when I first saw his pictures I thought he'd have a more quiet, sinister sounding voice.

Well that explains why he's called the radio demon.
