* AdaptationalSpeciesChange: In canon, Carmilla Carmine and her daughters, Odette and Clara, were all Sinners, making them formerly human. Here, [=SpiderGibbon_Rose1246=] has stated they are explicitly following a [[https://www.reddit.com/r/HazbinHotel/comments/19bphag/carmilla_carmine_is_a_fallen_angel_or_my/ fanon]] they believe to be true, namely the idea that the Carmine's aren't Sinners, but ''{{Fallen Angel}}s'' like [[spoiler:Vaggie]].

* EvenEvilCanBeLoved: [[DownplayedTrope Less "Evil" and more "Amoral" or "Sinful"]], but its shown that a ''lot'' of Sinners have people up in Heaven that still love them and are horrified to see the state of Hell and what they have to go through, many of them crying out in anguish over the thought of their loved ones being caught in the Exterminations. In particular, Angel, Alastor, Niffty, Cherri, and even Vaggie are shown to have family and/or friends in Heaven who miss them

** While the focus is primarily on the cast of ''Hazbin Hotel'', [[WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss Fizzarolli and Asmodeus]] make a brief appearance in Chapter 2 to demonstrate that Cain's broadcast was effecting the other Rings of Hell too, the two deciding to have sex rather than worry about the TV.
** Lucifer makes on in Chapter 2, showing him completely ignorant to what's going on due to being in a depressive funk over Lilith leaving him, his lack of a TV and being surrounded by ''towers'' of rubber duckies leaving him unaware of Cain's broadcast.

* WistfulAmnesia: While the Winners remember their mortal lives for the most part, they have spotty memories regarding regarding loved ones who are in Hell, not even remembering their ''names'', only having the sense they were [[WistfulAmnesia missing something]] and ''knowing'' they have other family members, but are sure they'll show up in Heaven eventually. Cain's broadcast however causes the Winners to [[AmnesiacResonance quickly realize something is wrong]], and seeing their loved ones on the broadcast completely jogs their memories. As Annie puts it, the Winners were always so happy and at peace up in Heaven, they never really had the ''need'' to think deeply about their remaining loved ones absence.

* LotusEaterMachine: Heaven is shown to be a {{downplayed|Trope}} version of this. While the Winners are genuinely happy and content in Heaven, it came at the cost of their memories regarding loved ones down in Hell or more sinful thoughts being suppressed, leaving them in a blissful state and making Heaven come across as "peaceful". Once Cain's broadcast causes the Winners to undergo AmnesiacResonance however, the Winners quickly go into an uproar and start to remember ''everything''. A Hellhound even {{lampshade|Hanging}}s the idea Heaven is in blissful ignorance, since no one would be able to consider it "eternal Paradise" if they were worrying about their loved ones suffering in Hell.

* RecursiveFic: [[invoked]] "''Hellish Broadcast''" was specifically inspired by the fic "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/51019930/chapters/128901214 All Hell Breaks Loose]]". Like here, a mysterious Sinner broadcasts to everyone the events occurring in Hell so as to reveal the effects on the afterlife to everyone. ''Unlike'' here, AHBL broadcasts ''both'' of the main entries in the Hellaverse, and ''doesn't'' broadcast the events to Heaven. It likewise was written ''before'' the premiere of ''Hazbin Hotel'' proper, causing it to have a lot of depictions OutdatedByCanon, in particular the characterization of Lucifer and [[spoiler:depiction of Lilith being a present figure in her family's life]], resulting in it eventually being declared an AlternateUniverseFic and the events they were viewing being a "possible future".

* SneezeCut: [[PlayingWithATrope Shivering variant]], but whenever a Winner manages to remember they have family that are likely down in Hell as Sinners, said Sinner ends up feeling a shiver run down their spine without knowing why, Angel Dust feeling it when Molly and Annie remember him, and Alastor feeling it when May wonders about her son.

So when she gets a good look at Angel Dust, her ''son'' Anthony, she sees for herself just how he's changed, Molly even confirming that he died after overdosing and slipping into a coma, and yet is still in the throes of addiction even in Hell. [[DramaticIrony Neither are aware that the drugs are one of his only reprieves from the real hell he's forced to suffer.]]

So when she gets a good look at Angel Dust, her ''son'' Anthony, she sees for herself just how he's changed, Molly even confirming that he died after overdosing and slipping into a coma.
* BroadStrokes: The broadcast of the Pilot specifically omits the EarlyInstallmentWeirdness of certain character designs, such as Clara Carmine initially being depicted as an EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette, or Carmilla Carmine having much more spindly fingers and loose hair, making their appearances fall more in line with canon.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Molly recounts how her twin brother Anthony was thrown out of the house by their father for being gay, and he ended up falling to drug use to deal with the pain. She'd regularly find him on her front porch, barely able to stand and suffering from withdrawal, only able to comfort him as he broke down in her arms, until he eventually overdosed and ended up in Hell, becoming the porn star "Angel Dust". Even though they're in Hell too, Anthony has no contact with his father and brother, namely due to his father still hating him and implying he wants to ''kill'' Anthony if he saw him.
* InternalReveal:
** Part of the premise is that Caine has revealed the Exterminations to the people of Heaven, exposing Sera's GovernmentConspiracy in the process.
** Charlie and Vaggie learn that Angel Dust wasn't being honest when he claimed he was "clean" while staying at the Hotel. While Charlie is more sympathetic and understands he was using it to cope with his circumstances, Vaggie is angered that he lied to them when part of the stipulations of his stay at the Hotel being that he'd go clean.
