Netflix has officially released Haunted Hotel, its brand-new adult animated horror-comedy series, and fans are already diving into the spooky laughs. Created by Matt Roller, a writer on Rick and Morty, the series brings a unique blend of family drama, ghostly chaos, and sarcastic humor.
The first season landed on Netflix with 10 episodes, each running about 25 minutes. Unlike traditional horror shows, Haunted Hotel leans into comedy while still offering the right amount of eerie atmosphere to keep you hooked.
The Storyline
The plot centers on Katherine (voiced by Eliza Coupe), a single mom who suddenly inherits the Undervale Hotel after the death of her brother. To her shock, her estranged brother Nathan (Will Forte) hasn’t exactly left the building instead he’s now one of the ghosts haunting the property.
Together, Katherine and Nathan attempt to run the hotel, which caters to some very unusual guests. Many of them are high-maintenance spirits who refuse to check out. Between running the business, raising kids, and handling her ghostly sibling, Katherine has her hands full in this hilarious yet heartwarming series.
Cast and Characters
The voice cast is packed with comedy talent. Alongside Coupe and Forte, the series features Skyler Gisondo, Natalie Palamides, Jimmi Simpson, Drew Tarver, Carl Tart, and Duncan Trussell. Each actor brings a distinct flavor to the quirky world of Haunted Hotel, giving every ghost and guest their own memorable charm.
Why Fans Are Talking
Since its release, Haunted Hotel has generated buzz for its clever balance of spooky atmosphere and sharp humor. Fans of animated sitcoms like BoJack Horseman, Disenchantment, or even Ghosts are finding it to be a refreshing addition to Netflix’s lineup.
The show also stands out for weaving in real emotional stakes. Katherine’s struggles as a mom and hotel owner give the comedy a relatable core, making the ghostly antics more than just background noise.
With its mix of horror, comedy, and family drama, Haunted Hotel is already proving to be one of Netflix’s most creative new animated series. All 10 episodes are now streaming, making it the perfect pick for viewers who want something funny, spooky, and heartfelt at the same time.
