Hooked on Horror: Netflix's New Hit Comedy-Horror Stirs Frenzy for Season Two

Netflix viewers say they are 'already hooked' on a wild new comedy horror from the creators of Rick And Morty

BREAKING: Netflix's Latest Obsession is Here! Get Ready for the Wildest Ride of 2023 with "Haunted Hotel"

The wait is over, folks! The most anticipated adult animated series of the year has finally landed on Netflix, and it's already got everyone hooked! Created by the genius minds behind Rick And Morty, Matt Roller, this new comedy horror show is set to shake things up in the world of adult animation.

What's Haunted Hotel All About?

Haunted Hotel, an adult animated series from Rick And Morty's Matt Roller, has quickly become one of the streamer's most talked-about titles

For those who haven't heard, Haunted Hotel takes place within the eerie walls of the Undervale, an abandoned inn that's home to a legion of restless spirits. Sounds spooky, right? But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom! This show blends supernatural chills with irreverent humor, making it the perfect comfort watch for those who love a good laugh.

The Voice Cast is Absolutely Stellar!

Get ready to meet Nathan, the lovable but slightly unhinged lead character voiced by none other than Will Forte. Joining him on this wild ride are Eliza Coupe, Natalie Palamides, Jimmi Simpson, and Skyler Gisondo, who all bring their A-game to this hilarious and heart-pounding show.

The new series was created by Rick And Morty writer Matt Roller (pictured), who told WatchMojo: 'If you loved Rick And Morty's story structure, you'll love this'

But Don't Just Take Our Word for It...

Fans have already fallen head over heels in love with Haunted Hotel. On Reddit, one enthusiastic viewer raved: "This show is EXCELLENT! I'm really hooked. It's become my new comfort show. I've already seen it like 5 times lol." Another fan chimed in: "I've had it on repeat all weekend. Obsessed with Abaddon."

The Love for Haunted Hotel is Real!

Set within the eerie walls of the Undervale, an abandoned inn haunted by the spirits of its past guests, the cartoon blends supernatural chills with irreverent humour

It seems like everyone who's watched the show can't get enough of its clever writing, absurd humor, and genuine heart. One commenter exclaimed: "What a great idea to mix comedy with a family-oriented horror cartoon." Another wrote: "I just finished it, the last few episodes were fantastic! I'm definitely hoping for a second season."

The Creators Are Spilling Their Secrets!

Behind the scenes, Roller revealed that Haunted Hotel is packed with subtle nods to classic horror movies. Get ready to spot over 80 Easter eggs hidden throughout the show! "I guess I would challenge people to find the Easter eggs," he teased. "Some of them are pretty obvious, like shot references, and a bunch of the background wall art… because a hotel just has to be full of art."

Rick And Morty Fans Rejoice!

And if you thought that was all, think again! With Rick And Morty already getting picked up for two more seasons (yes, you read that right – TWO MORE SEASONS!), this means the show will now propel through a 12th season by 2029. Dan Harmon and Scott Marder are over the moon with excitement: "Nobody wants a universe without Rick And Morty," Harmon said. "Fortunately, the list of places to go remains infinite."

Get Ready for More Haunted Hotel!

The ten-part show has already climbed Netflix's global top ten and boasts a strong 83 per cent score on Rotten Tomatoes from both critics and audiences

So what's next for this wild ride? With its 83% score on Rotten Tomatoes and fans clamoring for more, it's clear that Haunted Hotel is here to stay. Will Netflix bring us a second season? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure – we can't get enough of this crazy, lovable cast of characters!
