He may be Hell's Greatest Dad, but he can't play the accordion for shit.

Despite it being set literally in Hell (and arguably one of the most messed up depictions of it in contemporary media), Hazbin Hotel has a ton of humor going for it.

    Promotional Material 
  • In the initial trailer, there's a sign that says "Welcome to Hell - Population: A fuckton."
  • One of the credits title cards for "Something Rotten" has Angel Dust storm onto the set and call out Sir Pentious' overly-specifically thematic decor.
    Angel Dust: Okay, no! This is bullshit!! What fuckin store sells snakeshaped pipe organs!?!
    Sir Pentious: IT WAS FROM A CATALOGUE!!
  • The announcement trailer for the series that tells fans that the series will be coming out on Amazon Prime in January 2024 has a "Not Making This Up" Disclaimer, as if they anticipated that the fans would be skeptical.

Web series and pre-release material

    Pilot 
  • A background sign features the somewhat on-the-nose message "FUCK YOU!! HEAVEN".
  • Near the start, a new arrival ends up in hell and in his confusion thinks he's still alive. He gets hit by a car seconds later.
  • After being called a slut by his customer, Angel Dust immediately responds with a drawn-out insult. As the customer is driving away, you can hear him slowly, awkwardly trying to repeat it, as if he's trying to figure out what Angel Dust said.
  • Angel Dust watching a thief run away with his drugs, and then they're immediately crushed by a falling piece of rock.
    • Even funnier, Angel Dust is more concerned about his ruined drugs than the asshole who was crushed.
      Angel Dust: (gasp) Oh my God! (Beat) My drugs! Damn it!
    • In the background, a sign says, "We couldn't think of a pun for our shop but we sell hard drugs!"
    • Among the types of drugs the vending machine offers is "Bojack".
  • One of the Egg Bois wishing that Sir Pentious would shoot him with his ray gun.
    • And in the stinger, as Sir Pentious is crawling out of the massive crater Alastor left him in, the same Egg Boi asks if he can shoot him with his ray gun this time.
  • Sir Pentious is just so over-the-top and delightfully hammy that it's impossible not to at least chuckle at most of his dialogue.
    • This little exchange:
      Sir Pentious: Hell will be mine, and everybody will know the name of Sir P—
      Cherri Bomb: EDGELORD!!
    • He at first thinks his Egg Bois called him an "edgelord", and refers to them as "fried chicken fetuses".
  • Sir Pentious' face when he sees Cherri's bomb.
  • The Fight between Cherri Bomb and Sir Pentious gives us this gem:
    Cherri: Why don't you get that tinker toy bullshit off my turf before I smash it?! (a piece of machinery falls and crushes an Egg Boi behind her) (Beat) ...moooore~
  • Sir Pentious' response is to give her a short Bring It speech while using Air Quotes, talking out of the corner of his mouth and putting his hands on his hips while swaying his head and hips side to side like a Sassy Black Woman.
  • During their news section, when it shows a video of Sir Pentious and Cherri Bomb going at each other, Cherri Bomb grabs the Egg Boi Sir Pentious threw at her, cracks it open, put a bomb in and tossed it back at him. His face is full of deep regret as the bomb explodes when it hits.
  • Katie pouring piping hot coffee on Tom's lap after he makes a sexual crack about Cherri. What makes it even funnier is Tom's pained "not again" and Katie being annoyed and telling him to "suck it up, you little bi—" after they cut to commercial.
    Katie: Looks like they're fighting tooth and nail for that hotspot!
    Trench: And I'd sure like to nail her hotspot! Ho, ho~!
    Katie: Hehe, you are a limpdick jackass, Tom! (Picks up coffee) Or should I say...(pours it directly on his lap) No dick?
    Trench: Not again...!
    • Also, the scrolling text below the newscast, which start by recapping the news story but then gets off-topic with the writer bitching about his personal problems like his failing marriage, his wife and being insulted by an orangutan they saw at the zoo.
    • In the Japanese version, since the "tooth and nail" pun doesn't make sense in the language, Katie instead uses Cherri's name as part of a pun to call Tom a "cherry boy" (virgin).
    • The picture of Sir Pentious they use during the broadcast was apparently taken during one of his attempts to be "hip". He's badly dressed to look like a teenager in a similar way Steve Buscemi's character from 30 Rock dressed as while undercover — he's holding a skateboard over his shoulder, wearing a backwards cap, and his shirt says "MUSIC BAND".
      • Even funnier when you realize the scrolling text under the newscast that exact moment tries to defend a pun about how traffic is "Hella backed up" by explaining the joke as a slang term that younger people seem to enjoy using.
  • Vaggie practically begging Charlie to not sing and to stick to the script. But Charlie argues she's better at expressing herself musically and holds out a list to Vaggie saying, "The highlighted bits are the best parts~!"
    Vaggie: Uh... It's all highlighted.
  • Charlie goes over to Katie and offers to shake her hand, but Katie tells her to put it away. Even funnier is how not even three seconds later, she starts poking Charlie's chest.
    Katie: I don't touch the gays. I have standards.
    Charlie: Yeah? How's, uh... (looks at a sign that says "Hell's #1 News") How's that working out for ya?
  • Katie telling off Charlie that she wasn't here because they wanted her, but because Jeffreynote  couldn't make it for his cannibal cooking segment. A post-it underneath a poster says, "Who approved this show??"
    • Also Tom shaking his head in the back (clearly having heard all of this before) when Katie boasts about how she's too rich and influential to "give a flying fuck about what some tux-wearing demon princess wants to advertise."
  • Also, the sign behind Katie while she's posturing, highlighting the attractions of their news station: "Murder! Sex! Weather!"
  • When it's announced that they're live, Katie runs back to her seat at literal breakneck speed.
  • When Charlie starts talking (about how she tries to see the good in everything around her), Katie kills a bug by stabbing it with her pen and the gore splashes on Charlie's face.
  • At one point during the broadcast with Charlie, Katie Killjoy dozes off, only to be shaken awake again when Charlie pounds her fist on the table. What makes it funnier is that Katie makes a car alarm noise when waking up.
  • As Charlie walks through the crowd to announce the hotel, there's a brief Funny Background Event of an early version of Blitzønote  apparently checking out Charlie's ass.
  • Thinking no one understood what her plan was, Charlie prepares to start her musical number, to Vaggie's dismay.
    Vaggie: (Face Palm) Oh no...
  • A sign behind Razzle and Dazzle munching on donuts is a smoking sign that has a checkmark next to it.
  • At the beginning of Charlie's song, a glowing sign in the background reads, "Musical Logic" with an arrow pointing to the right.
  • Some of the faces Charlie makes during the song are hilarious.
  • In the midst of said song, Charlie takes half a second to take a pot-shot at her (Word of God) Sitcom Arch-Nemesis.
  • Also, during the song, Charlie runs from the "sexual deviants" and past the "boozer" causing the former to shift attention to the latter with the boozer's eyes widening as he guesses what will happen.
  • After Charlie's whole song number, only one demon (played by Maxwell Atoms, creator of The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy) pops up and initially sounds impressed but quickly proves otherwise.
    Demon: Wow... that was shit!
  • When everyone starts laughing at Charlie, there's a cut to the studio stands with a huge sign reading "Boo Section"... and out of the whole crowd, only one guy boos halfheartedly.
  • During the battle with Sir Pentious, Angel Dust gets chained up and slammed into a sidewalk. His taunt about it... doesn't go well.
    Angel Dust: Oh, harder daddy!
    Sir Pentious: (gasp) Son?!
    (Angel stares at him with a look of utter confusion on his face)
  • Angel lampshading Pentious' hat having an eye and wonders if it's alive or not.
    Angel: Would that make your hat the top and you the bottom?
    Egg Boi: Oooooh!
    • In the background at this moment, you can see signs saying "LOSER" and "PUSSY" pointing at Sir Pentious.
  • Sir Pentious is starting to quickly get annoyed with Angel Dust.
    Sir Pentious: I'm going to blow you to bits!!
    Angel Dust: Hmmm, kinky.
    Sir Pentious: Oh, not like that! Pervert!
  • This exchange later on during the turf war.
    Sir Pentious: Not so cocky now, are we?
    Angel Dust: You know, you really got to watch what comes out of your mouth. I-I've been making these sex jokes the whole- (The hands gripping Angel Dust pull him taut) TIME! And it's obvious you ain't catching on. I mean, it's just SAD!
  • Charlie's interview has several:
    • While reading her notes, her eyes make typewriter noises.
    • Katie being passive-aggressive:
      Katie: [Giving a Slasher Smile while shivering in anger as rattlesnake noises can be heard in the background] Tell us about this new passion project you've been incessantly pestering our news station about! [She pushes the pen button with Audible Sharpness].
    • This small bit of back and forth between Trench and Katie when Charlie brings up that her first client is Angel Dust.
      Trench: The porn star?
      Katie: (Venomously while dragging her razor-sharp nails across the desk, never dropping her cheery tone) You fucking would, Tom!
      Trench: (Nervously looks away)
      • Charlie's smug smile at Tom in the background.
    • When Katie shows a live broadcast from the turf war, Charlie tries to cover it up, but since it's on a green screen, she's just in the background behind the excerpt of the footage.
      Katie and Tom: Ratings~!
  • Charlie calling Katie Killjoy a bitch. Just hearing someone as sweet as Charlie swear is hilarious.
    Yeah, well... How does it feel that I got your pen, huh? Bitch!
    • Also Tom getting the hell out of dodge the second after Charlie insults Katie.
    • When Cherri Bomb and Angel Dust are discussing whether Angel Dust will get into trouble over taking part in the turf war Angel asks what one little brawl is going to cause. Cut back to the studio; all hell's broken loose. There are alarm sirens blaring and warning lights flashing, Katie and Charlie are wrestling back and forth... and Tom has somehow been set on fire.
      Tom Trench: (on fire) WHY WON'T ANYONE HELP ME?!?!
    • The climax of the gang war/interview segment has Charlie, Katie, Angel Dust, Cherri Bomb and Sir Pentious all charging forward dramatically and screaming while Tom is still screeching like a banshee, ultimately culminating in a Mirrored Confrontation Shot... cut to Charlie, Vaggie and Angel Dust driving to the hotel in a limo.
  • Angel Dust gleefully playing with the switch for the limo divider.
  • Angel Dust trying to explain his way out of starting a turf war that ended in a territorial genocide.
    Angel Dust: Eh, you win some, you lose a few hundred. (laughs)
    • Him also adding how he didn't make them look like a joke, he just made them look "sad."
      Angel Dust: No, no, no, babe. Jokes are funny. I made you look... uh... sad! And pathetic! Like an orphan... with no arms... o-or legs. Uh... oh, with progeria! Great, now I'm bummed thinking about it!
    • Charlie throughout this whole description is grasping her hair in front of her face in terror. Her eyes widening with each of Angel Dust's words until she just hides behind her locks.
  • Angel Dust telling Vaggie not to "get [her] taco in a twist", and when she angrily asks if he was trying to be sexist or racist, he sighs and replies, "Whatever pisses you off more".
  • During the argument in the limo, when Vaggie calls Angel Dust out on calling others ugly, he says his body is flawless and has the creepy fan mail to prove it before presenting a letter. Said letter is of cut-out letters spelling out "show me your feet" with a creepy photo of a guy with a green tongue licking a body pillow of Angel Dust. It's gross and hilarious at the same time.
    • Double funny if you consider that, according to Word of God, his own feet are the only body parts of his demonic form he doesn’t like.
  • Once all is said and done regarding Angel Dust's actions, he just casually asks if his room at the hotel isn't free anymore. Vaggie's expression can only be described as "What the fuck do you think?"
    Angel Dust: (beat and snapping his fingers) Aww, well, shucks.
  • Alastor visiting the hotel, to Charlie's shock as she opens the door. However, she closes the door on him twice, the first time being from surprise at seeing Alastor, and the second just to check to see if he was really there.
    Alastor: Hel- (Charlie slams the door in his face, only to turn back after a split second and open it again) -lo! (slams the door in his face again)
    Alastor: (Charlie opens the door again after talking to Vaggie) May I speak now?
    • Angel Dust, looking unimpressed, casually poking his head in as Vaggie warns Alastor not to try anything funny.
  • That ominous knock Alastor made? If you listen closely, you'll find that it's a Shave And A Haircut.
  • Alastor claiming he hasn't been that entertained by something as he was by Charlie's performance since the Stock Market Crash of 1929 and gleefully notes, "so many orphans".
    • Vaggie calling Alastor a "pompous cheesy talk show shitlord".
    • The popsicle that Angel Dust is sucking on in the background is suspiciously phallic, but then again, what else would you expect in Hell?
  • The fact that, for all the creepy, cryptic buildup we got from his appearance during Charlie's musical number, Alastor not only has a much higher-pitched voice than one would've thought, but he's surprisingly perky and affable despite Charlie slamming the door on him twice, then him politely asking if she'll let him speak. And then he gently reminds Charlie and Vaggie just who they're dealing with. Brought back to Funny again from how quickly he shakes off his Game Face and goes right back to perfect gentleman on a dime (although that might just make it creepier).
  • This line:
    Alastor: I don't think there's anything left that could save such loathsome sinners. (The camera pans to Vaggie and Angel Dust sitting in the background, they send him glares that scream "Seriously? We're right here!" before the camera pans back.)
  • Angel Dust, having absolutely no idea who Alastor is, refers to him as "Smiles". Vaggie asks how he couldn't know who the Radio Demon was when he had been in Hell longer than herself. Angel Dust gives a nonchalant shrug.
    Angel Dust: Eh, not big on politics.
    Vaggie: ...Ugh.
  • When Vaggie tells the story of Alastor's infamy, she gets to the reason why most of Hell refers to him as the Radio Demon: he broadcast his horrifying murders on the air just to let others know how powerful he was... but, she does admit that the nickname itself is incredibly lazy.
    • Angel Dust, of course, doesn't care for her story and after she finishes up on why they shouldn't get involved with Alastor, Angel Dust asks if she was done.
    Angel Dust: (gesturing to Alastor) He looks like a strawberry pimp!
  • This exchange, allowing the sweet Charlie to curse:
    Charlie: Okay, so, Al, you're sketchy as fuck and you clearly see what I'm trying to do here as a joke. (Alastor begins glowing ominously when Charlie turns around and abruptly goes back to normal when she looks back.)
  • When Alastor offers to make a deal with Charlie, he extends his hand and starts glowing ominously. Charlie's reaction is to tell him they're not doing it THAT way.
  • The first interaction between Alastor and Angel Dust.
    Alastor: And what can you do, my effeminate fellow?
    Angel Dust: I can suck your dick.
    (Beat)
    Alastor: HA! No.
    Angel Dust: (scoffs) Your loss.
    • If you pay attention, you can hear the sound of a zipper.
    • Not to mention Alastor's genuine and utter bafflement, if only for a split second.
      • Only punctuated by the sound of microphone feedback that fits his radio theme, played over an image of a shattered glass window.
    • It gets even funnier when you remember that Alastor is asexual.
  • Niffty saying there are no men in the hotel despite Angel Dust standing right there.
  • Some of the exchanges between Alastor and Husk.
    Husk: Are you shittin' me?
    Alastor: Hmmm. (Beat) No, I don't think so.
    (...)
    Husk: You think I'm some kinda fuckin' clown?!
    Alastor: (Beat) Mmmaybe.
    • And during the (Beat) of that last part, Alastor makes a face that looks like he's struggling to hold back a laugh or a "yes", it just screams "You set yourself up for this one."
    • Husk gets teleported to the hotel straight out of a poker game he was about to win the whole pot of. The poker table teleports with him, money and chips included, before Alastor sends them back where they came from.
      Husk: Ha! Read 'em and weep, boys! Full hoooooooooo...tel? What the fuck is this?
      • When Husk is grabbed by Alastor, cards fly out of him. Of course, Husk was cheating, this is Hell after all.
  • On summoning the bar, Alastor tries to bribe Husk further into the job with a bottle simply labelled... "CHEAP BOOZE". Judging by Husk's reinforcement of the on-the-nose-ness on that label, one wonders if that's literally an alcohol brand in Hell. Even better, it works.
    Husk: What, you think you can buy me with a wink and some CHEAP BOOZE?! [Beat] ...Well, you can! [walks off, chugging]
  • The exchange between Vaggie and Angel Dust when Alastor creates a bar in the hotel.
    Vaggie: Hey, hey, hey hey hey! No! No bar, no alcohol! This is supposed to be a place that discourages sin, not some kind of...mouth... brothel... man cave!
    Angel Dust: (tackles her to the ground with a serious expression) Shut up! SHUT! UP! (Points at the bar with three hands) We are keeping this.
    • And the face she makes while saying so. You can actually see her fumbling for words.
    • If you look closely, you can see Angel Dust making puppy dog eyes at the bar before Vaggie starts talking.
      • Also, you can see Angel actually backing up out of the shot so he can tackle Vaggie properly.
  • Immediately afterwards, Angel Dust tries to flirt with a very unreceptive Husk...
    Angel Dust: Heeeey~?
    Husk: Go fuck yourself.
    Angel Dust: Only if you watch me.
  • Charlie welcoming Husk to the hotel:
    Charlie: Omigosh, welcome to the Happy Hotel! You are going to LOVE IT HERE!
    Husk: I lost the ability to love years ago. (chugs some cheap booze)
  • A few from Alastor's Villain Song.
    • The introduction has Vaggie dragged off to the rest of the group, where a few ghosts actually yell "BOO".
    • Angel just rolling with the look, snapping finger-guns at Alastor while Husk flips the bird after he pulls a feather from his eyebrows.
    • The scarf Alastor gives Vaggie is actually a dead animal, going by the X eyes. Also, the whole outfit bears a suspicious resemblance to Susan's getup from the series proper.
      • He then slaps Vaggie's ass, just to piss her off even more. And since Alastor's canonically asexual, he genuinely only did it because he knew it would piss her off.
    • Just after this, he kicks a demon skull off-screen. It bounces around and lands behind him, where Niffty zips in and swiftly sweeps it up.
  • Sir Pentious interrupts Alastor's Villain Song, having tracked down Angel for payback, and notices Alastor is there. Alastor either pretends not to know him or honestly doesn't remember him.
    Sir Pentious: We meet yet again, Alastor!
    Alastor: Do I know you?
    Sir Pentious: (Visibly - and audibly - deflates) ...Oh yes, you do!!
    • In a Freeze-Frame Bonus, Alastor actually looks surprised for once when the interruption happens.
      • Also, go figure, the syllable he stops on is "Ho".
  • When Sir Pentious blows the door off its hinges, it slams into poor Niffty, with the others staring silently as she and the door go flying backwards.
    • The sound Niffty makes is hilarious. It sounds like an almost excited "WOOOO".
    • While Pentious is saying "We meet yet again, Alastor!" the protagonists are drawn in a chibi format
    • After Alastor asks of Pentious' identity, Angel looks right at the snake demon with a cheeky grin.
  • After effortlessly destroying Sir Pentious' ship with a titanic creepy smile, Alastor immediately says he's starved and asks if anyone wants some jambalaya.
    • The fact that while all the others were gawking at the ship’s destruction with shocked and vastly bewildered reactions, Niffty's reaction consists of a tiny, pursed smile.
    • Angel flirtatiously blows a kiss toward Husk.
    • Niffty adorably hopping besides Alastor as he rambles on. There’s a reason Vivziepop chose Pinkie Pie as her head-canon voice.

    Addict 
  • Despite the overall dark tone of the video, there is a brief moment when Angel is dancing along the stage. Travis, Angel Dust's customer from the pilot, is standing next to the stage, watching Angel dance, utterly lust-struck. Without even looking, Angel kicks him in the head, knocking him out.

    Dirty Healings 
  • Angel's first meeting with Charlie and Vaggie.
    [Limo pulls up to Angel Dust's spot]
    Angel: Well, hey there~ See som— [Double Take at seeing Charlie smiling sheepishly at him and Vaggie facepalming behind her] Oh... Whoa now... For ladies, I charge extra.
    Charlie: Nonono!!! No! We don't want any of that!

    Vaggie: My name is Vaggie... This is Charlie. We—
    Angel: LIKE VAGINA?!?!?! [Snickering]
    Vaggie: [Facepalms] ...We have a proposition for you.

    A Day in the After Life 

    Misc 

Amazon series

    Season 1 Trailer 
  • While preparing to fight a group of angels, Sir Pentious is wearing a Napoleonic looking uniform with an eye on its bicorn like his top hat, wielding a dagger and looking nervous, Angel Dust and Husk look determined, wielding a tommy gun and cracking his knuckles respectively, and Niffty has a tiny dagger smaller than Sir Pentious' and a huge Slasher Smile.

    Season 1 Teasers 

    Overture 
  • Alastor's commercial includes some humorous gems. He was going for "hilarious" after all.
    Alastor: So, what do you think?
    Vaggie: I'm sorry, what the fuck was that?
    Charlie: Yeah, one note.
    • The commercial starts with Alastor talking to a demon stabbing another repeatedly, only for the stabbed demon to look up in confusion at the camera as well.
      Alastor: Well, hello there, you wayward sinner. Do you like blood, violence and depravity of a sexual nature? Of course you do! That's why you're in Hell! But what would you say if I told you there was a place to stay that had none of that?! Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel!
    • Alastor calls Charlie "Lucifer's delusional daughter" and claims that she's "trying to work through her Daddy Issues by fixing you".
    • When listing the perks of the Hotel, Alastor lists off "somewhat functional staff" (Husk falls over drunk), "24-hour pest control" (Niffty chases after a bug and tries to stab it), "custom rooms" (a toilet), a "tacky parlor" (the parlor is shown falling apart, scaring Kee Kee) and "riveting conversation with our singular resident" (Angel flips Alastor off).
    • At the end of the commercial, text appears on the screen saying "Call now! Or don't! I don't care! We still don't have a working phone!"
  • Alastor really hates television, disparagingly calling it a "noisy picture box" and being adamant that radio is "the proper medium to express oneself". Later, he makes a deal with Vaggie (not a Deal with the Devil type deal, but a regular one), where they agree that he'll help Vaggie shoot a proper commercial for the Hotel in exchange for Vaggie never making him get involved with television ever again.
  • After Alastor’s Kitschy Local Commercial falls flat Angel suggests filming him having sex with Alastor because Sex Sells, Alastor’s opinion on that apparently still hasn't changed.
  • When Angel Dust lists all the qualities that make him a good porn actor:
    Angel Dust: I've got the arms, I've got the stamina, I've got the legs, I've got the lung capacity, oh ho I've got the legs, the gag reflex, the holes, the chest fluff that everyone thinks are tits.
  • When Charlie gets a phone call from her dad Lucifer's profile picture is a rubber ducky with his tophat and the ringtone is an orchestral circus theme.
  • Charlie after her dad tells her to go to the Heaven Embassy:
    Charlie: (Pops out from behind wall) Vaggieholyshit!!!
    Vaggie: (Startled) What?
    Charlie: (Makes exaggerated "Come Here" hand gestures/closed-mouth noises)
    • When Vaggie does come over, Charlie is hyperventilating so badly she's going cross-eyed.
  • Charlie's song Happy Day in Hell has several moments:
    • For starters, the fact that Charlie is so excited she just starts the song mid conversation with Vaggie with no warning.
    • Charlie fumbling her lyrics when she wonders whether angels have hearts.
      Charlie: ...to change their minds and touch their hearts or whatever angels have...
    • This exchange, and you can even see Charlie's distant figure during Angel's second line:
      Vaggie: Okay, but just, don't sing to them.
      Angel Dust: That bitch is halfway down the street!
      Vaggie: Is she...
      Angel Dust: Oh, she's dancin'.
      Vaggie: Ugh, no!
    • Charlie accidentally looking at a Hellhound sodomizing an Imp in a gimp suit and being weirded out.
    • Charlie accidentally stepping into a dead demons guts.
    • Charlie greets a random demon on the street and he tells her to go fuck herself, Charlie's reaction? She abruptly changes direction and starts quickly walking away with a forced, neutral expression on her face.
    • During the first Crowd Song segment the crowd loses interest half way through and walks away.
      Crowd: Another shitty day in Hell!!!
    • While singing about opening the door and giving sinners a place to stay at the hotel, Charlie opens a door of a Cocaine truck and the driver falls out dead without her noticing.
    • Charlie walking by some cannibal demons and having a full blown breakdown at what she's seeing while still singing. It gets funnier when she tries to act nonchalant despite the fact that she got brains in her eye.
      Charlie: ...to the cannibal town, where they don't wear a frown because Holy Shit! Oh My Gosh! Why!? And I don't give a crow that his brains' got in my eyeee... cause I know I can spare them from Heaven's Genocide!!!
    • Some creepy pervert demon cutting in on her lines, leading Charlie to nope right out of there while still singing.
      Charlie: ...to change their minds...
      Demon: And touch my parts!
      Charlie: Uh... no thank you, I'm just gonna... fulfill my destiny...!
      Demon: Your loss bitch!
    • At one point, a demon claims that he has "a ton of barbed wire" to shove in another demon's ass. Later, the other demon admits that he kinda likes it, prompting someone else to shout "PERV!" at him.
    • The finale:
      Charlie: Today is gonna be a fucking happy day in Hell!
    • During The Stinger, we get scenes of demons happily attacking each other during Charlie's chorus and a pair of cannibal demons doing a Spaghetti Kiss with entrails.
  • At the Heaven Embassy Charlie is creeped out by how empty it is, then she walks into a dark room and this happens:
    Adam: (Lights go on) Sup.
    Charlie: (Falls to the floor) Oh shit. (Gets back up.)
  • Adam seems to be eating ribs throughout this endeavor and mentions at one point that they're one of his favorite foods. Perhaps he's subconsciously trying to get back what he lost when Eve was born.
  • Adam suggests he and Charlie do some small talk to get to know each other better, later the scene cuts back to show him telling a story about how he slept with a groupie at a concert while Charlie is completely bored out of her mind, then she realizes this is her mom's ex:
    Charlie: Wait, your name is Adam? Like the first man Adam? That means you... ohhhh... (Beat; under her breath) That explains so much.
    Adam: I know, I fucking rock. [holds up Devil horns]
  • During said story Adam proudly calls himself "The Original Dick, all dicks descend from me!"
  • This exchange:
    Charlie: Well, Adam, sir, Mr. Adam, sir—
    Adam: Call me Dickmaster.
    Charlie: Adam.
  • When Charlie mentions Adam could "Put his name on something":
    Adam: I love putting my name on shit, shit's the best!
  • When Charlie tries to bring up her solution to their mutual problem, Adam start's trying to guess what that is. His list includes herpes, ugly people, math, global warming, and then corrects himself and remembers that's Earth's problem. It apparently went on for a while judging by Charlie's exhausted expression when we cut back to them.
    Adam: Oh…uh..ugly people? Math? Global Warming? Nah, wait, that’s Earth’s problem. Ummm...
    • What's even funnier is that when he says "ugly people", he briefly shoots a glance at the screen with a smile, as if referring to the viewers themselves.
  • Vaggie filming Angel Dust and Husk's scene for the commercial, with Angel adding his own pornographic subtext, and Husk deliberately putting zero effort into his performance and with his eyes on the script instead of the camera.
    Husk: "Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel. Can I help you with anything?"
    Angel Dust: "I've been a bad boy, and I need a big, strong daddy to put me in my place... on the path to redemption."
    Husk: (sighs) "Well, you've come..."
    Angel Dust: (orgasming) Ohhhh, yes!
    Husk: (beat) "...to the right place."
    Vaggie: Cut! Okay, Angel, I need you to be less horny, if possible. And Husk, can you maybe not have the script in front of your face?
    Husk: I ain't no actor! I can't memorize this shit!
    Angel Dust: Well, we could improv this shit, babycakes. Rawrrrr... (Husks shoves him off the bar)
    Husk: Whoops. (downs some booze)
  • While Vaggie is filming the commercial for the hotel she wants Niffty to say a line but Niffty freezes when looking at the camera.
    Angel Dust: You're doing great Vagina.
    Vaggie: Cut. Alright, uhhh... maybe we can try to fix it in post.
    Angel Dust: Do you even know what that means?
    Vaggie: (Angrily) I'll figure it out!
  • As Vaggie tries in vain to make something of the crap sandwich she filmed, Alastor pops in to remind her why he sponsored the hotel.
    Alastor: I came here because I love seeing wasteful souls struggle to accomplish something meaningful and fail spectacularly. Like you are doing now. Good job!
  • Vaggie demanding Alastor's cooperation in making a competent commercial and imitating Alastor's mid-Atlantic radio host accent by saying "entah-TAININ" is definitely entertaining.
  • At the start of Adam's Villain Song Charlie tries to do a Reprise with several funny moments:
    Charlie: (talking quickly) Okay, I have a lot to get through and not a lot of time, and I feel like you weren't hearing me before so here goes, ahem. (Singing) I know Hell's population is out of control, its a bad situation, it's taking a toll, if we rehab these sinners and cleanse all their souls, at my Hazbin Hotellll.... (Talking) Wait, I'm getting ahead of myself, right, extermination! (Adam and Lute exchange meaningful looks) (Singing) I mean, you guys fly down just to kill once a year, it must be annoying to schlepp all the way here, if they join you in heaven that trip disappears, (Charlie throws her notes across the room with a rainbow trail) you can wave that chore farewell. (Charlie gasps for air) It will be a happy day in...
    Adam: Let me stop you right there...
    • In the middle on of the song Adam mimes playing a guitar while shouting "Guitar solo, fuck yeah!". Then later he shows that he's able to conjure a guitar using magic, so he was miming for no reason.
    • As Adam reaches the climax of his Villain Song, he pulls out the holy orders to speed up the next extermination: A very fancy looking golden scroll with a red wax seal that he unfurls to reveal the words "Fuck you I do what I want!!". It even has a little drawing of himself giving thumbs up.
    Adam: Can't wait a whole year to slaughter those little cunts!
  • When the new commercial is starting a Breaking News Interruption happens, cut back to the hotel inhabitants, Niffty seems excited but Charlie is making angry princess noises and turning into her demon form.
  • The fact that Brandon Rogers barely changed his voice from Blitzo's when doing Katie Killjoy's. Though, she also sounds a lot like Bryce Tankthrust, and has even been given a redesign to reflect it.

    Radio Killed the Video Star 
  • As Angel Dust shows Charlie the denizens of Hell freaking out about the shortened deadline for the next extermination, he gets an inopportune text from Valentino.
    Charlie: What is a “donkey show”?
    Angel Dust: (Awkwardly) Ah, hyeah- nothing!
  • Sir Pentious blasts open a hole in the hotel while calling for Alastor to show himself. He realizes mid-call that Alastor was already on the balcony in plain view.
  • Apparently, Alastor considers Sir Pentious SO beneath him, he doesn’t even remember his attack in the pilot, which was a week prior in universe.
    Alastor: Who are you?
    Sir Pentious: I am the great Sir Pentious, face my wrath!
    Alastor: Well, you'd think I'd have heard of you.
    Sir Pentious: I attacked you literally last week.
    [later, after bringing down his blimp]
    Alastor: Thanks for another forgettable experience.
  • The high-pitched elk territorial scream Alastor makes when his coat is ripped. Followed shortly by Pentious being launched into the sky in a column of green smoke.
  • The simple fact that there is a show called "Yeah, I Fucked Your Sister, So What?".
  • Some of Velvette's sass can do this to you.
    Velvette: (scrutinizing an outfit) What is this? Wrist ruffles? Is it 1750!? Burn it like the witches who wore it!
  • Valentino's angry moth squeaking, which was apparently toned down from the first sound pass.
  • Valentino keeps demanding drinks from his servant. Not to consume, but to angrily smash them everywhere during his tantrum.
  • Valentino apparently doesn't know Charlie's name, calling her "Chalky or Chandler, I dunno, something mannish like that!" He then gets sidetracked asking Vox which of his guns makes him look sexier, as if he's picking out an outfit for a night on the town as opposed to setting out to kill everyone at the Hazbin Hotel.
  • During Vox's Villain Song "Stayed Gone", he broadcasts Alastor's return through a live newscast of The Radio Demon that just oozes pettiness.
  • During the meeting with the other Vees, Valentino is bedazzling one of his guns.
  • Charlie's attempts at not calling Sir Pentious a snake.
    Charlie: And who deserves [a second chance] more than this... slithery... slippery... ssssspecial little man!
  • Niffty greeting Sir Pentious.
    Niffty: The bad boy is back! (jumps on him) Never leave me againnnn...
  • After Charlie successfully convinces Vaggie to let Sir Pentious stay at the hotel, Vaggie admits that the latter isn't much of a threat without the war machines... or even with them. You can see Sir Pentious in the background visibly deflating at that comment.
  • Charlie getting excited about her first real guest, much to Angel's annoyance.
    Angel Dust: Uh, what the hell am I then?
  • Charlie makes Sir Pentious apologize for attacking Alastor and ripping his coat hours prior. He sheepishly hands over the torn piece which Alastor bemusedly BURNS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM leaving them both in Stunned Silence for a few seconds.
    • The reason he burns it. Alastor notes that it's been ages since someone has been able to damage even a tiny bit of him, so that piece of his coat must've meant a lot to Sir Pentious. Naturally, he destroys it just to make him suffer.
  • Charlie encourages Angel to play along with an introductory game she made up. He's not having it.
    Vaggie: Well, get used to it and learn how to play. This is gonna be your whole day! (claps)
  • The whole roleplay as part of therapy scene, with Angel as The Aggressive Drug Dealer and Pentious dressed as a moppet and enjoying a huge lollipop.
    Angel Dust: (reading the script in a deadpan tone) I'm a bad man who never got enough hugs, where's an innocent kid I can sell crack to. (normally, to Charlie) Who wrote this?
    Charlie: It's great, right? (Beat) Keep going!
    Angel: (reading a script in a deadpan tone) "Hey, you."
    Pentious: (with Big Anime Eyes) Who, me?
    Angel: (still reading the script with the same deadpan tone) "Yeah, you. You look like a kid who could use the devil's dandruff?" Oh, for fuck's sake.
    Pentious: Not me! I have to go home and study.
    Angel: (again, still reading the script) "Come on, kid. It'll make you cool like me." (beat) "... The crackhead."
    Pentious: The only cool thing here is to say no to drugs. Now... if you'll excuse me, I'm off to NOT have sexual intercourse before marriage!
  • When Angel Dust accuses Sir Pentious of being a mole for the Vees by revealing the camera he planted, Pentious doesn't even try to lie his way out, he immediately blows his cover by begging Vox for help and trying to escape out the window.
    Sir Pentious: Abort! Abort! SOS! Agent Pentious in need of immediate evacuation!
  • Vox's sheer disbelief that Sir Pentious literally couldn't even go a full day without getting outed as a spy. It's VERY funny... then goes right to horrifying:
    Vox: I can't believe we thought you could handle even something this simple. Do us a favor, if they don't kill you, go ahead and do it yourself, you miserable failure.
  • Charlie and Sir Pentious singing a sweet duet about him joining the hotel, except that Vaggie and Angel want to beat the crap out of Sir Pentious for being a traitor:
    Sir Pentious (Singing tearfully) Who could forgive a dirtbag like me. I don't deserve your amnesty.
    Vaggie and Angel Dust: (Singing) Can't we just kill him? Shoot him and spill his blood?
    Charlie: (Singing) That's an option you could choose.
    Vaggie and Angel Dust: (Singing) Works for us.
  • After the above exchange, Charlie follows it up with "But who hasn't been in his shoes?" A humorous choice of words, considering the fact that Sir Pentious is a snake and doesn't have feet to put shoes on.
  • Niffty fawns over Sir Pentious, admiring him for being a 'bad boy'. After Charlie and Pentious' duet near the end of the episode, though...
    Niffty: (Glaring angrily at him) I HATED that song! Why are you so lame?! (She storms up to Sir Pentious and kicks him in one of the many eyes on his tail before taking her leave) NOT a bad boy!

    Scrambled Eggs 
  • The episode opens to Vaggie expressing concern that Pentious is still up to his usual villain shenanigans. Charlie assures her that she hasn't seen him do any of that at the hotel when Pentious and the Egg Boiz come in rolling a giant cannon into the hallway.
  • Vaggie forces Sir Pentious to send away his Egg Boiz. His attempt to Shoo the Dog doesn't have the pathos he expected.
    Sir Pentious: All right, eggies. You've got to go. I... [tears up] can't keep you anymore!
    Egg Boi: [cheerfully] Okay boss!
    Sir Pentious: [oblivious while the Egg Boiz walk away] No, don't resist! This is how it has to be! [bursts into tears while Charlie awkwardly pats his shoulder comfortingly]
  • Alastor's breakfast is an entire dead (and apparently rotting) deer that he's slicing into like it's a steak. This is a Mythology Gag to an old artwork Viv made of him.
    • Vaggie's interruption is accompanied by a Record Needle Scratch (which given Alastor's nature could have been an actual sound he made, rather than non-diagetic). He completely freezes, his eyes darting from her to the deer and back, before he responds. Was Alastor of all people actually embarrassed?
    • After Alastor leaves, Vaggie notes that the aforementioned deer looks disgusting as a piece of it falls to the floor.
  • This exchange:
    Vaggie: No one is trying to kill you. People are being nice to you because they want you to feel welcome.
    (cut to Husk and Angel Flipping the Bird and Niffty sporting a Slasher Smile)
    Pentious: (hiding behind his cannon) I have my doubts...
  • When Charlie and Vaggie announce trust exercises, they both do a little jump. Of course while Charlie has a look of joy on her face when she jumps, Vaggie clearly looks embarrassed and her cheer is more monotone. Not only that but she's off by a second after Charlie jumps and lets an "oh shit" when they land. Charlie nails the landing while Vaggie falls on her ass. Apparently, they rehearsed this routine too.
  • The Egg Boiz managing to annoy Alastor of all people with their stupidity by getting him to twitch his eye twice in the episode.
    Egg Boi 1: Oh boy, what's your plan boss? I like your suit!
    Egg Boi 2: What are the antlers for?
    Egg Boi 3: Can I touch your staff thing?
    Egg Boi 4: Are those your ears? Or is it your hair? I can't tell.
    • Alastor resorts to threatening them when they risk embarrassing him in front of Zestial.
      Egg Boi: Who's that boss? Want me to rough him up for you?
      Alastor: Follow in silence if you value your shell.
  • The hotel's trust fall exercises:
    • While being held by Vaggie after being caught by her, Charlie leans back to speak to Angel upside down, then lets her arms flop down like a ragdoll.
    • After she was the only one to try to catch Charlie, Vaggie has to threaten the rest of the group into participating in Angel's trust fall.
      Vaggie: This time everyone needs to catch him, okay? [brandishing spear] Unless you want me to hurt you.
    • Angel starts off with this:
      Angel Dust: Somethin' about myself, huh? How 'bout this? I love to suck
      Husk: (furiously) I swear to fuck, if you say dicks!
      Angel Dust: Popsicles, ya sicko! Get Your Mind Out of the Gutter. (falls backwards into Husk's arms) But, y'know. Dicks too.
      Husk: (drops Angel)
    • Sir Pentious saying he doesn't want to live without his Egg Bois is kinda sad, but it becomes morbidly funny when he falls and is caught, namely because of his response.
      Sir Pentious: I...don't want to live without my minions. Nobody catch me!
      (everybody not named Angel Dust catches him)
      Sir Pentious: Dammit.
      Vaggie: That's great. [cringing as he slithers away] Wow, you are slimy.
    • In a Dark Comedy way, Niffty confesses to killing mother bugs in front of their children to send a message. Everyone is so freaked out, they start Backing Away Slowly as she bellyflops from the stage onto the floor and promptly cheer about the pain. Note that this even includes Charlie and Vaggie, who are suppose to at least be pretending to be tolerant of everyone.
      Niffty: (pumps fists while on the floor) YAY, PAIN! (scrambles up and back onto the stage, just to jump from it again) (creepily giggles) PAIN.
    • Even funnier? She can be seen diving off the stage several times as Husk and Pentious look on in a mix of confusion, bewilderment and annoyance.
  • When Velvette takes a picture of Carmilla, she puts a filter of poop emojis all over her. And the poop emojis have devil horns.
  • The Egg Boiz lampshading they're only known by the numbers on their back:
    Egg Boi #1: (pointing) Oh look! Frank is up there.
    Egg Boi #2: We have names?
  • Angel's idea of building trust is BDSM. Vaggie and Charlie are appropriately horrified by this.
    Vaggie: What makes you think anyone would be into this?!
    Husk: (purring while receiving a back massage by a demon in bondage gear) You know, I don't hate this...
    Niffty: (in full dominatrix getup and holding a whip) I'm ready to punish some bad boys.
    • The couple that Charlie accidentally peeped on in episode 1 are also present and accounted for at the club.
  • While Alastor and Zestial are talking, a demon in the foreground douses himself in gasoline and lights himself on fire just at the sight of them.
  • Carmilla is surprised that Alastor came to the meeting since he's been absent for seven years. Alastor thinks that she's curious about his whereabouts, only for Camilla to admit she doesn't care where he was, only curtly welcoming him back. Alastor's eyes widen and then narrow at her, clearly offended by her apathy towards his disappearance.
  • When Velvette brings out the severed Exorcist head, Alastor expresses interest in eating it. When Velvette and Zestial are arguing, you can see him sampling some of its blood.
  • Some Freeze Frame Bonuses during "Respectless" when Velvette is shown with social media posts around her:
    • A Voxtek advertisement for "Instant Delivery", with the disclaimer:
      Instant delivery varies between 50 or 500 business days. No legal promises are made.
    • An ad for ice cream bar versions of the Vees.
  • After "Respectless" ends on Carmilla abruptly ending the meeting after barely addressing one subject, Alastor chimes in:
  • Vaggie's idea of team building is to throw them into a warzone. As in physically yeeting them into a brutal gang war. Even Charlie is shocked that this is how Vaggie learned trust, which she responds with a proud smile. Even more ridiculously? IT WORKS.
    • Niffty is a little too eager to join the chaos on the battlefield and can be seen in the background begging Charlie to throw her down there after she stops Vaggie from doing so. Eventually Niffty gives up and climbs down into the warzone herself.
      Niffty: (Hopping up and down, wearing a Slasher Smile) My turn! MY TURN!
    • After Charlie stops Vaggie from throwing Niffty into the warzone, Husk can be seen in the background quietly leaving so he doesn't have to get involved.
    • Angel is down in the warzone making struggling sounds while fighting and screams to Vaggie "I blame you for this, you crazy bitch!". This, among other things said while fighting, were the result of the VAs improvising.
    • We also have to remember that Vaggie threw Sir Pentious and Angel into the warzone from a tall building, and Niffty was willing to jump off the building to join in. And after Angel drags Pentious back up the building to reunite with Charlie and Vaggie on the roof, Charlie tells them they're going home and Angel complains he just walked up all those stairs for nothing.
  • When Alastor asks Frank what he heard eavesdropping, Frank starts to re-enact what he heard, leaving Alastor's eye twitching again. Then Frank tries to sing like Carmilla in a faltering voice before Alastor can cut him off.
  • The group ending up having a hearty laugh over the day's events, only to get creeped out when Niffty turns it into an Evil Laugh.
  • In the end, Frank completely lets the news slip that Carmilla killed the Exorcist to Sir Pentious (even realising he wasn't supposed to mention it right after). Unfortunately Sir Pentious knows exactly how capable the Egg Boiz are and doesn't believe him in the slightest, assuming Frank must have misunderstood some mundane event or imagined the whole thing, indulging Frank like one might a small child with an overactive imagination by telling Frank that he might see a Martian tomorrow.

    Masquerade 
  • Angel's idea of Show and Tell is the best porn film he starred in.
    Angel Dust: I'm showin' you my best film, and I'm tellin' you it scored me a win over that bitch, Tiffany Titfucker.
    • Charlie, Vaggie and Pentious are rightfully horrified and disgusted. Niffty, however, is the only one who's completely engrossed in it.
    • It is worth mentioning that Charlie has an understandable reaction to the porn movie. It is so sickening that Vaggie has to help her avert her eyes and avoid the urge to throw up.
  • Husk confesses he knows everyone's dark secrets when they get drunk, including but not limited to:
    Husk: That one [Sir Pentious]. That one is an insecure buffoon whose lonely ass watches you idiots sleep. Princess is a bleeding heart who wants to solve everybody else's problems 'cept her own.
    Charlie: What?! No, I— What? Pfffft, no, no.
    Husk: This one [Vaggie] judges everyone and everything because she hates herself. And Niffty? Hehhh...you don't even want to know what her deal is.
    • The implication that Charlie and Vaggie both are not only not above drinking, but also got shitfaced enough to blab about their personal troubles to Husk, is hilarious.
    • When Husk is spilling the beans about Sir Pentious watching the others sleep, Vaggie can be seen punching her palm, clearly showing how annoyed she is.
  • This exchange:
    Vaggie: You're the princess of hell.
    Charlie: So?
    Vaggie: Maybe you can command a little more authority?
    Charlie: (In an over the top whiny voice) But that's so meeeaaan!
  • When filming his latest adult film, Angel forgets his lines and even asks if Val expects him to memorize the whole script. Val lampshades that nobody watches porn for the dialogue, the director in the seat next to him (who happens to be Travis, Angel's client in the pilot) frantically shakes his head.
    • Upon seeing Charlie in the studio, Angel promptly freaks out to the confusion of his fellow actor.
      Angel Dust: So, what are you gonna do to me- (sees Charlie walking in) Charlie?!
      Angel Dust: (pushing Rocky off him) No one gives a shit.
  • It doesn't take long for Charlie to be Distracted by the Sexy after entering the studio, getting flustered by a topless hellhound and gawking at an actor oiling up.
    Charlie: Oh, so this is where the magic happens! Oh, wow, that is— (with a quiet awe) that is a lot.
  • When Angel Dust asks what Charlie is doing at the studio, Charlie tries "commanding a little more authority". it sounds like she's trying to act like her dad and failing.
    Charlie: I am the princess of Hell, Angel, and I go where I please!
  • While trying to get Charlie out of the studio before Val sees her, Angel walks right into this zinger:
    Val: Angel! What is the fucking hold up?
    Angel: I’m… coming.
    Val: Not off camera you’re not.
  • When Charlie asks if her presence is distrupting the production:
    Val: Not at alllll... [through gritted teeth] Princess.
  • At one point, Angel complains that Val spends a lot of time looking over three individual dollars, which keep in mind was the pose he had for his official character artwork prior to his redesign for the series. Apparently he's shortsighted and genuinely can't tell the value of each one.
  • Even though it comes in a particularly bittersweet moment, Husk and Angel's song "Loser Baby" is sure to elicit a few chuckles:
    Husk: (singing) You lost your way.
    You think your life is wrecked.
    Angel Dust: (startled; spoken): Wait, what?
    • The expressions on Angel’s face during the next verse have to be seen to be appreciated.
    Angel Dust: (As Husk sings) Is this supposed to be helping me?!
  • When Angel Dust forgives Charlie, her expressions - and her ragdoll nature as he holds her at arm's length - are both heartwarming and hilarious. Vaggie is not one bit surprised by this, simply giving a fond smile as she says "Alright, missy, let's get you to bed"; she wasn't kidding about liking her theatrical nature.
    Charlie: He—he—said—he—for-forgave meee-hee-hee-hee!

    Dad Beat Dad 
  • When everyone is watching Charlie spiraling in the morning, Husk is pouring booze into his mug, which says "Fuck Mondays".
  • Charlie gets her "Eureka!" Moment to get a meeting with Heaven above Adam's head when talking about how her father let the Exterminations happen, saying that they had a meeting and just said to go ahead and kill everyone, so Vaggie gets confused and asks if Charlie is saying that they should kill everyone. And when she clarifies, Vaggie says that they already tried that, and Charlie says that that was with Adam, who's an asshole, saying the last word in an exaggerated way.
  • Charlie has each individual Egg Boi in her phone contacts, implying they have their own phones.
  • As Niffty gets excited about seeing the "ultimate bad boy", Angel quietly takes a giant knife away from her and puts it behind the couch.
  • The introduction to Lucifer, the King of Hell, the most feared of all demons… He makes rubber ducks as a hobby. His room is full of piles of them. This comes right after Niffty says that she wants to see the "ultimate bad boy", and that she hopes that he's scary.
    • To be fair, the show cuts to Lucifer as he unveils his latest creation: a backflipping rubber duck... that spits fire.
  • One of the photos in Lucifer's room has Charlie in a goth phase.
  • When Charlie calls, Lucifer briefly panicks while the phone is ringing, wanting it to be perfect. But when he actually picks up, Lucifer says "Hey, bitch!" in an over-the-top voice.
  • Lucifer’s absolute joy at being invited to the hotel.
    Lucifer: (sing-song) MY DAUGHTER WANTS TO SEE MEEEEEEE! (to a duck) Take THAT, depression!
  • It's brief, but during the staff's efforts to lay out the welcome mat, we get a quick shot of Niffty in the working oven when she pulls out the latest batch of cookies.
  • On first seeing Lucifer, his office background makes him look normal-sized, but when he shows up at the Hotel, a side-by-side comparison of him and Charlie shows that he's smaller than his own daughter, something Alastor doesn't hesitate to needle him about. Also a bit of fridge hilarity about the King of Hell being a Pint-Sized Powerhouse: the family portrait Alastor was checking out in the pilot, which seems to show both he and Lilith were taller than Charlie, most likely had Lucifer standing on a footstool in order to not have his lower half out of frame.
  • Some of the decorations put up for Lucifer's arrival include a hand-drawn banner reading "WELLCUM DADDY", a hand-drawn poster reading "WE HAVE SNACKS!!", and a baby shower banner reading "IT'S A BOY!?!"
  • Alastor and Lucifer develop a dislike for each other almost immediately after meeting. Lucifer's Bear Hug on Charlie leaves Alastor steaming in fury with a barely-noticeable Twitchy Eye. What he does in revenge is to declare that he was Expecting Someone Taller, while Lucifer notes that he hasn't heard of Alastor's show and mocks the hotel's name, which results in Alastor cursing, something very rare for him.
    Lucifer: I guess that's why Charlie called it the "Has-Been" Hotel. Ah ha ha ha!
    Alastor: Ha ha ha! It was actually my idea.
    Lucifer: HA-HA-HA! Well, it's not very clever!
    Alastor: Ha-HA! (Gets right up in Lucifer's face) Fuck you. (Both Death Glare and grin nastily at each other)
    • Everyone's reaction to Alastor and Lucifer's argument in the background: Vaggie is concerned, Husk is surprised, Sir Pentious is scared, Niffty is excited, and Angel is amused.
    • When Charlie shows Lucifer the parlor, two cockroaches can be seen having sex.
    • Not content with that round of passive-aggression, Al comes back at Lucifer by acting like a Parental Substitute. Al's shit-eating grin sells the scene.
      Alastor: Charlie has a very unique vision. I am happy to fulfill her bizarre requests. [puts his hand on her shoulder]
      Charlie: Oh. Thank you, Alastor. [smiles and puts her hand on his; the camera focuses on the contact between them as Lucifer watches in horror, "Psycho" Strings playing]
      [Lucifer glares at Alastor and growls suspiciously]
      Alastor: Quite an impressive young lady. [touches her under the chin] We're all very proud of her.
      [On the word "proud", he leers at Lucifer before turning back to Charlie, putting a hand around her shoulders and tugging her closer. Charlie tears up in happiness at his words, and Lucifer gasps in horror as he sees what Alastor is doing.]
      Lucifer: Ahem! Charlie, dear, [walks between them, separating them] why don't you introduce me to your OTHER friends?
  • Lucifer's reaction to Charlie introducing Vaggie as her girlfriend.
    Lucifer: Oh, my golly! You like girls? So do I! We have so much in common! You put 'er there, Maggie! (offers her his hand, pulls her in for a bear hug with an Sickening "Crunch!", then backs away) She's so pretty.
    • It seems like part of Lucifer's reaction is relief that Charlie is not in a relationship with Alastor.
  • A cute little Funny Background Event — Angel is briefly seen trying to swipe one of the cookies Sir Pentious and Niffty made in preparation for Lucifer's arrival, while Sir Pentious tries to guard them; after Sir Pentious is distracted by greeting Lucifer, Angel quickly takes his chance and grabs a cookie.
  • Sir Pentious, Angel, Husk, and Niffty have fairly funny reactions to meeting Lucifer. Sir Pentious nervously salutes and shouts "YOUR MAJESTY!" before flopping face-first on the table in an attempt to bow; Angel flirtatiously calls Lucifer "short king"; Husk is the only one to greet him normally; and Niffty runs up to him, gets up in his face and says "Hi there! I clean!" whilst giggling evilly.
  • After spending half a song being insulted by Lucifer, Alastor gets Lucifer's goat by spelling out that he's a better father figure than Lucifer is.
    Alastor: I'm truly honored that we've built such a bond.
    Charlie: Awww!
    Alastor: You're like the child that I wish that I had.
    Lucifer: Uh, what?
    Alastor: (cut to Alastor tucking Charlie into bed and patting her head) I care for you just like a daughter I spawned.
    Lucifer: Hold on now!
    Alastor: It's a little funny, you could almost call me... (camera zooms to his smug grin as he slowly turns to look at Lucifer) DAAAAAAAAD!
    • Lucifer's response to that being to immediately whip out the golden fiddle and start aggressively playing at Alastor, rather than respond with another song lyric, all with facial expressions that scream "Bitch, you did not!".
  • Lucifer sings a song about how he'll do anything for Charlie, using his powers to make an impressive Genie-esq Disney Acid Sequence, and then Alastor buts in and turns it into a Quarreling Song. Eventually, attention goes from Charlie to each other as the lyrics get more confrontational... and then Mimzy just shows up out of nowhere, acting like everyone was expecting her, grinding the whole thing to a halt.
    • Lucifer boasts about all the positive reviews he gets on Yelp, with Muppet versions of himself appearing to quote them.note 
    • Lucifer mentions that normally he charges in sacrificial lambs for his services (having one of Charlie's Baphomet servants tied up on an altar for emphasis), but she "gets the family rate."
    • After Lucifer sings, "Who needs a busboy now that you've got the chef?", there's a chorus of "Wooow~"s sung by other patrons of the imaginary restaurant, who are all Lucifer in palette-swapped outfits.
    • Among Alastor's list of helpful deeds is unclogging a drain in the hotel. The clog in question was Niffty, who had somehow gotten herself trapped in the hotel's plumbing, with Alastor having to fish her out.
      Niffty: I was stuck! Thank you, sir!
    • Special mention goes to when they start doing an instrumental battle. First Lucifer plays a golden fiddle "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" style, then Alastor plays the pianonote , and then Lucifer brings out an accordion. He doesn't actually play it though, he just belts out a single off-key note from it with nothing but a hateful stare towards the Radio Demon, making it clear that it's the musical equivalent of Blowing a Raspberry.
    • When Lucifer boasts about "pure angelic power" and unfurls his wings, Charlie has an over-the-top awed expression on her face.
    • The whole thing is basically the musical equivalent of two peacocks trying to assert dominance over the other via one-upmanship of flashy displays.
    • Everyone's reaction to Mimzy bursting in unannounced: Angel and Pentious are understandably confused, Charlie has a perfectly surprised face, Vaggie looks unimpressed, Lucifer's expression can be summed up as "what the fuck?", Alastor coldly glares at her, Niffty is excited while Husk simply facepalms upon seeing her.
      Lucifer: (after Mimzy's song is over) Who?
      Mimzy: Didn't you just hear me? Why is everybody gawkin'? (strikes a cute pose) Is it because I'm adorable?
  • When Mimzy recognizes Husk, she asks how he's been. His response?
  • Sir Pentious and Angel are baffled at the idea of Alastor, the Radio Demon that kills anyone that crosses him and broadcasts their screams on the radio for all of Hell to witness and that has toppled overlords that have ruled for centuries, one of which he all but has on a leash, having a genuine bona fide friend.
    • To be fair, the old friend goes on to casually assure them that once you put on some jazz and get a few fingers of rye whiskey into Alastor, "he becomes a kitten." She also informs them that even while alive, Alastor could drink like a sailor and still keep up with her on the dance floor, which is apparently far more believable.
  • This exchange between Mimzy and Niffty:
    Mimzy: Hey, Niffty. Whatcha been up to, girlie?
    Niffty: Fighting bugs.
    Mimzy: (glancing at the roach scuttling across the floor) And, uh... how's that going for you?
    Niffty: They're winning. (brandishing a knife) But not for long.
  • Mimzy notes that she stole and crashed a car into the girlfriend of a loan shark she's running from, but that she had it coming.
    • This might be purely coincidental, but Mimzy owes the loan sharks 50K. Which happens to be the same amount of money someone else happened to spend on something Hazbin Hotel related.
  • For parts of the episode's last stretch, Angel Dust, Husk, and Pentious are literally eating popcorn while observing the various drama unfolding around them.

    Welcome to Heaven 
  • Cherri Bomb bursts through the wall to visit Angel instead of using the door. Angel even lampshades how often that particular wall seems to get broken.
  • Charlie asks Cherri Bomb to take the rest of the group out as well. Cherri begins to refuse, saying that she only came for Angel, only for Charlie to drop a stack of money into her hands. Cherri quickly changes her tune.
    Cherri: Never mind, let's GO!
  • When the portal to Heaven opens, Charlie grabs Vaggie like a suitcase and chucks her through. Notably, she forgets the actual suitcases in her hurry.
  • When Sir Pentious first sees Cherri, he does a Spit Take before trying to play it off as a rival coming after him. Yet after Cherri says she's not and is taking all the hotel staff for a night out, him included, his continued attempts to play it up quickly makes him realize he's out of his depth in this situation.
    Pentious: Oh, so, so you and I are going out, like, for fun!? I... *beat* I didn't think this would ever happen. What- what do I do? What do I wear?
  • When Emily is greeting Charlie, she holds her hand. Vaggie can be seen looking on in rage.
  • Saint Peter starts panting with exhaustion when he finishes his "Welcome to Heaven" song. Makes you wonder how many times he's had to do this today.
  • Among the "Charlie Mor—" entries in St. Peter's log book is "Charlie Morningbreakfast".
  • As it turns out, Adam was the one to give Vaggie her name, on the logic that, since she was so good at killing demons, he should name her after "the best thing ever". And when she corrects him after he pronounces her name with a soft "g", he bluntly shoots her down.
  • Adam threatens to tell Charlie that Vaggie's a former Exorcist if she doesn't sabotage Charlie's court case to prove Sinners can be redeemed in Heaven. When she shoots him down, his cheerfully sarcastic response is priceless.
    Adam: Oh, yeah, that's totally cool! I guess I'll just tell Little Miss Butterflies-and-Rainbows that she's been fucking someone who's killed thousands of her people. I'm sure your relationship will be fine! See ya in court!
    • To emphasize his point, he makes a scissoring gesture with his hands as he says "fucking", complete with springy sound effect.
    • Even before Vaggie shoots him down, Adam's decision to describe Charlie's court case as "kindergarten snowflake bullshit" is bound to garner a chuckle.
  • Adam greeting Charlie in court.
    Adam: [singing] What up baby? [speaking] Saw that you went to my manager. Low blow, Karen!
  • In the courtroom, Charlie tries to open with Webster's Dictionary's definition of "redemption" but is shot down by Adam and Sera, with the latter decreeing no more definitions in the courtroom. We then see that all her note cards are definitions of words.
    Charlie: Webster's dictionary defines redemption as—
    Adam: Objection! Lame and unoriginal.
    Sera: Sustained. No further Dictionary References, please.
  • Adam recognizes Angel Dust as "the porn demon", which leads one to wonder if 1) he's been spying on the hotel or 2) he's familiar enough with Angel's work to recognize him by name. It is Adam we're talking about, after all.
  • At the club, Niffty apparently didn't realize she had left the Hotel.
  • When Adam argues that Angel isn't a good enough person for Heaven after seeing him drinking at a club, Charlie counters by asking if he's never gone out for a drink with friends after a hard day at work. Adam's response... kind of raises a good point.
    Adam: Uh, we don't have "hard days". It's fuckin' Heaven.
  • The face Sera and Emily makes when Charlie swears in court after allowing Charlie to show the rest of Angel Dust's night at the club.
    Charlie: Fuck, yes. [after realizing what she said] I mean, thank you.
    • Despite being in court, Adam doesn't stop his swearing at all; it's only when Charlie swears that Emily and Sera react (the former surprised, the latter offended), highlighting Heaven's double standards. Though maybe they've just become used to his demeanor and/or have given up trying to rein him in.
    • In the Latin American Dub, the line is translated as "Me cago a dios"note , basically Charlie insulted god in front of the Seraphin and Angels.
  • Angel's attempts to curb Niffty's Alcohol-Induced Idiocy are both this and heartwarming, as she keeps finding ways to screw up, and sports some Ocular Gushers when Angel asks why she's making such a mess of things. To console her, he warmly asks if she wants to play with the kitty... plopping her on Husk's head after she says yes.
    Husk: The fuck is this?!
    Angel: She's wasted, just go with it!
    • And there's the implications of why Niffty broke into sobbing. Not because Angel was yelling at her, but his choice of words.
      Angel: God, Niff, why ya bein' such a mess?!
      Niffty: ...I'm...the mess...?! (Inelegant Blubbering)
  • Sir Pentious trying to hook up with Cherri Bomb and hilariously failing, with his first attempt at flirting getting playfully rebuffed by her because he'd just declared her to be his Arch-Enemy.
  • Nifty's encounter with Valentino. First, she tries to bite his finger off, causing him to reel back in alarm.
    Val: Ay!
    Nifty: I just want a taste...
    Val: Damn. Weird, but there's a kink for that, I'm sure...
    • Then, at the end, Nifty tears off a piece of his furry lining (Which, to be clear, is part of his body) before leaving.
    Val: OW! What the fuck!?
    Nifty: (Giggles evilly) For my collection.
  • The list of rules that Adam writes has a drawing of himself giving a thumbs up. There's also a Cool S drawn in the corner, along with several scribbled-out attempts.
  • At one point Angel complains that Val has been getting into waterboarding. Keep in mind he does so in a exhausted tone like he's just complaining about a weird kink instead of a literal torture technique.
  • When Emily calls out Sera for her complicity in the Exterminations, Adam can be seen doing a "gag me" reaction to her speech.
  • It's quite funny seeing "the original dick" Adam being treated like a misbehaving child by Sera after spending most of his screentime acting like one.

    Hello Rosie! 
  • Niffty wonders where Vaggie's wings are if she's an angel. Angel then makes a crack about her lack of tits, and Niffty's response is to peek down Vaggie's shirt.
  • During Alastor's talk with Charlie, he decides to lay on her bed, kicking his legs back and forth like a gossipy schoolgirl.
    • He keeps this going when he tantalizes her with the possibility of information to coax her into a deal.
      Alastor: [sing-song] I know something you don't know!
  • This line:
    Angel Dust: So-ho, uh...Alastor and Charlie just left like they were running away from their responsibilities. Should we be alarmed?
  • Frank reveals to the group how he knew about Carmilla killing an angel and had even told Pentious months ago. Pentious defensively states that the Egg Boiz say "insane shit" all the time, and he had no reason to believe Frank was actually telling the truth. This is immediately followed by another Egg Boi validating his argument:
    Egg Boi: Bank accounts are a scam created by the shadow government!
    Sir Pentious: See?!
  • Charlie is too busy ranting to Alastor about her relationship troubles with Vaggie to realize that he's leading her to Cannibal Town until they're almost at Rosie's.
    • The rant goes into Charlie trying (and failing) to clarify her as being "Miss Understanding" instead of "misunderstanding", unable to finish her thought before realizing where Alastor had taken her.
  • Rosie's introduction has her in a conversation with another female cannibal:
    Rosie: Well, who hasn't thought about eating their first husband? I certainly would have if he didn't taste so bad!
  • Rosie offers pinkie fingers to Charlie as a snack, a reminder that she's an unrepentant cannibal but also being darkly hilarious.
    • Even better, the fingers are all packaged like luxury candies in a high end boutique box.
  • Rosie initially snarks that Charlie seems "much too young" for Alastor, only to add that she's just kidding since she knows that Al is "an ace in the hole". Alastor, being a bit behind the times, has no idea what she means by that.
    • At the "too young" line, Charlie noticeably frowns and rolls her eyes, since she is almost twice as old as Alastor is chronologically.
    • Charlie's eyerolling could also be seen as a Take That! towards people who ship Charlie and Alastor, as she is clearly not amused at the insinuation.
  • While Charlie is trying to convince the cannibals to fight against the exorcists, Susan keeps heckling and interrupting her to the point where Charlie snaps and lets her have it, complete with her Flipping the Bird. The best part is that it comes right out of nowhere.
    Charlie: FUCK YOU, YOU OLD BITCH!
    • And the fans need to remember that Charlie didn't swear like this to other characters who annoyed her like Valentino or Adam, which show HOW MUCH Susan annoyed Charlie.
    • During her speech while Susan is heckling her, Charlie can be briefly heard struggling to sing the words "I have a dream-..."
    • When someone in the audience starts heckling, Charlie instantly asks Rosie and Alastor if this is the Susan they were talking about. The expression Rosie and Alastor gives is quite hilarious, especially coming from Alastor, meaning even he finds Susan a handful.
      Charlie: Susan?
      Rosie & Alastor: Susan.
  • Vaggie trying to convince Camilla Carmine to talk about how she killed the angel.
    Vaggie: (Yelling at a security camera) I know what you did on extermination day, we can talk about it inside or I CAN YELL ABOUT IT OUT HERE!!! (Door Opens) Fuckin' right you opened that door.
  • During her training session, Vaggie comments that she’s not used to fighting with long hair. So how does Carmilla respond? By letting her hair down and still being able to beat her up.
  • When Vaggie asks Carmilla how she figured out that Vaggie was an Exorcist, Carmilla points out that she has a giant "X" over her eye and wields the same type of spear as the angels. Vaggie is clearly embarrassed that she didn't think of that.
    Carmilla: (dryly) It's not rocket science.
  • When Carmilla spells it out for Vaggie that the way to kill an angel is with angelic steel like the very spear Vaggie is holding instead of some secret weapon like Vaggie thought, Vaggie is clearly surprised and annoyed that it's that simple but no one has figured it out before.
  • During the "Ready for This" musical number:
    • The Cannibals are only swayed to Charlie's side when Alastor tells them that they'll get to eat a bunch of Exorcists.
      Cannibal crowd members: "Free food!" "I'm in!" "Om-nom-nom-nom!!"
    • When Charlie declares "It is time to lend a hand", a bunch of cannibals hold up severed hands while yelling "HUZZAH!"
    • Charlie tries telling the cannibal army she's just raised to tone down the violence and steadily realizing just what she's unleashing.
      Crowd: We can't wait to taste an angel's wings!
      Charlie: Oh, lord...
    • Of the especially "murdery" ones are two "cannibettes" who are literally twitching with bloodlust and one very emaciated poodle, for some reason.

    The Show Must Go On 
  • Vox ends up grabbing a big tub of popcorn to eat while watching the Hotel residents fight.
    • Even better, when Vox sees Alastor getting his ass kicked, he has what can only be described as a hate-boner induced pre-cum, all while prancing about in front of the other Vees and shrieking unambiguously about how euphoric he is.
    • Adding onto the above: Velvette is directing an outright concerned wince at Vox while he's doing this.
    • Also, Valentino's face when Vox says it's Better than Sex. Them being boyfriends, he was clearly offended.
    • When Adam smugly waves at Alastor as he flees, Vox has a minor meltdown like a football fan, much to Val's enjoyment.
  • Niffty being told by Charlie to only stab angels with the angelic dagger she's given. Niffty then tries to stab Angel Dust until told otherwise.
  • Charlie's attempt at a Rousing Speech is interrupted by Niffty in the most darkly comedic way possible:
    Charlie: I love you all... so much, and... And live tonight however you want because-
    Niffty: We're all going to DIE!! Hahahahaha!
    • Vaggie attempts to save face from this awkward interruption by inviting everyone to partake in alcohol.
  • Even Adam is disturbed by Lute's bloodthirstiness towards Vaggie. Then, when putting a bounty on her head, he can't think of an actual reward, and just says that her killer gets a million "Heaven Bucks". He also gives a rocker scream when the Exorcists set out.
  • Niffty puts a crown of dead bugs on Alastor, dubbing him the Roach King.
  • Angel Dust teasing Cherri Bomb over Sir Pentious' crush over her by saying he might have two dicks like an actual snake does. What makes it even funnier is that Cherri genuinely sounds like she's interested.
    Cherri Bomb: (smirking) ...Huh.
  • Even in the midst of battle, Charlie can't stop being Charlie as she apologizes to the angels she fights. It takes Vaggie to set her straight as she then lets out a blast that she puts her shield up to cover from the debris.
    Vaggie: Now's not the time for that, babe!
    Charlie: Oh. Right.
    (Turns toward incoming angels and releases a blast of fireworks)
    Charlie: Die, motherfuckers!
  • Adam saying that the demons being able to slay the Exorcists with their own weapons is "weak". There's also Lute acting as a Captain Obvious when Alastor puts up a shield, and Adam's reaction to it.
  • Alastor insults Adam's fighting style, and Adam's response, largely due to Alastor keeping him busy with his summons, is less than dignified.
    Alastor: You lack discipline, control, and worst, you're sloppy.
    Adam: And you're...fuck...fuck you...you red piece of f-too much fucking red...fuck...shut up!
    Alastor: Hahaha! Poetry!
  • Adam almost killing Alastor isn’t funny, but Alastor’s reaction right before he’s hit is certainly worth a chuckle or two:
    Alastor: (With no vocal distortion) What just happened? (Sees his staff has been snapped in half) Ffffuck.
  • While fighting off some Exorcists, Husk complains "These fuckin' angels won't stop coming", which prompts an amused laugh from Angel.
  • When Lucifer shows up, he tries to tell Adam that he's going to "fuck him up", but says "I am going to FUCK you!" instead.
    • Angel Dust just has an amused look on his face while Husk gives a glance at Angel saying, "Of course, you'd react to that." or "Don't you even think about it."
    • While Velvette smirks at what Lucifer said and Valentino is intrigued by the prospect of it, Vox has a face that screams "The fuck?".
    • Also the fact the battle comes to a temporary halt on both sides after Lucifer said that line, only resuming when Adam fights back. Even better, Charlie has time to correct Lucifer who blankly asks "Wait, what did I say?" and then an angry Adam piledrives him.
  • Valentino has a mug that says "Pimpin' Not Simpin'" on it.
  • Lucifer's Badass Boast to Adam of all people. It also doubles as Awesome:
    Lucifer: Well, your first wife didn't seem to hate what I had to offer. Or the second. (pumping his fists) Bow-chicka-WOW-WOW!
  • The way that Lucifer demands that Lute and the other exorcists leave once Adam dies:
    Lucifer: Take your little friends, and GO HOME! Please.
  • The Crawl during Katie Killjoy's news report asks when Season Two comes out. The one typing it is also incredibly enthusiastic:
    "I'M SHITTING AND CUMMING RN!"
  • Katie shoves Tom out of his chair when he tries to introduce himself, and when he manages to get back up, a second screen is imposed over his face. At this point, he just gives up and flips the bird with his visible hands.
  • After his defeat, Adam gives a vulgar hate-filled tirade about how all of them "came from THESE FUCKING NUTS!" Everyone is glaring back at him in serious defiant anger, except Lucifer who is just giving a "Really, dude?" raised eyebrow. Within a few short minutes of confronting Adam, Lucifer has transitioned from Tranquil Fury mocking him, to violent Unstoppable Rage, to just being totally fed up with this guy.
  • Adam's death, where Niffty simply stabs him to death In the Back.
    Lucifer: Hey... you got something sticking out of your... your thing there...
    • Everyone's reactions to it as well. Though everyone is surprised, Vaggie can be seen smiling at it, while Lucifer initially seems perturbed but as he continues on, he makes a deadpan expression.
    • Valentino on the other hand pales on witnessing the scene, not on the death of Adam but on Niffty and her psychopathic personality; he remembers their last encounter all too well, realizing how much worse it could've been for him.
    • Niffty realizing she stabbed Adam before happily stabbing him over and over again, all while repeating “Stab!” several times and giggling madly, is both disturbing and darkly humorous.
  • After Niffty kills Adam, she becomes a celebrity in Hell and is interviewed by countless news reporters. She can be seen giving the same vacant stare to the camera as she did in the first episode.
  • The reactions that Emily and Sera have regarding Sir Pentious ascending to Heaven right in front of them. Emily is squeaking with delight to see that Charlie's plan was successful, while Sera clearly realizes she made the wrong call.
    • Note that souls usually show up at the front gate. It's as if whatever force judges souls deliberately dropped Sir Pentious right in their midst just to make a point.
    • Even better? Sir Pentious ascended as a seraphim. Seraph translates to "burning one" but is also used in the Bible to refer to a snake. If there is a God in the Hazbin Hotel universe, they sure have a sense of humor.
    • Notably, Sir Pentious is just as shocked and confused as to what's happened;
      Sir Pentious: What! Where-where am I!? (Notices the angels) Oh...hello.
  • While Sir Pentious getting killed is definitely not funny, the tempting buildup towards him firing his Death Ray thing only for the airship to suddenly disappear into a ray of light from just Adam pointing at it is worth a few chuckles.
    • To make it more darkly hilarious, both of them are voiced by Alex Brightman.
  • At the end, during the the hotel's reconstruction, Lucifer has KeeKee briefly transform into something that looks like a Keyblade.
  • When Alastor returns to the hotel, everyone is overjoyed to see him, other than Husk, who begrudgingly hugs him, and Lucifer, who merely grumbles about "this guy" being back.
  • Lucifer's asking "Who's up for pancakes?" to the main cast, who's exhausted from the battle, with only Niffty happily raising her hand.
