Rick and Morty fans have found something new to binge! The creator behind the hit sci-fi series has brought another animated world to Netflix, and it is already taking over timelines. Haunted Hotel, which landed on the platform only last month, has become a quick obsession for many.
All 10 episodes dropped at once on September 19, 2025, and it did not take long for people to watch them all in one go. The show has already previously climbed to number eight on Netflix’s top ten most-watched list in the UK, competing against some heavy hitters.
What is Netflix’s Haunted Hotel About?
The story follows a single mother trying to manage a haunted hotel, with the unlikeliest of helpers and her estranged brother, now one of the ghosts, haunting the place. Among the bizarre residents is a demon trapped inside the body of a boy from the 1700s, as well as a range of strange spirits who stir up endless trouble. One of the demons is voiced by Seth Rogen, adding more star power to the mix.
Rick & Morty Creator Matt Roller’s Haunted Hotel Renewed For 2
Haunted Hotel comes from Matt Roller, who previously worked on Rick and Morty and wrote the episode A Rickle In Time. The voice cast features Eliza Coupe from Scrubs, Will Forte from SNL, Skyler Gisondo from Superman, and Jimmi Simpson from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. With that lineup and an 83% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s no surprise fans are already asking for a second season (which has been renewed).

Viewers on social media have been quick to call it their new obsession. One fan tweeted, “If you’re not watching #HauntedHotel on #Netflix, you should be. Great adult cartoon that’s like a mix of #HazbinHotel (without the music), #RickAndMorty, and #Ghosts. Pretty imaginative, laugh out loud funny, and – surprisingly – a ton of heart. Can’t wait for Season 2!”

The show’s humor, leisurely pace, and odd warmth have made it one of Netflix’s surprise hits of the season. Fans now hope that the streaming giant keeps it alive for more than two seasons, with many already waiting for their return to the haunted halls.
