Vivienne Medrano’s Hellaverse: A Deep Dive into the Future of ‘Hazbin Hotel’ and ‘Helluva Boss’

In the vibrant and chaotic animated universe known as the Hellaverse, creator Vivienne “VivziePop” Medrano has built an empire of adult animation that has captivated millions. With the recent announcements from San Diego Comic-Con and other industry events, fans of both Hazbin Hotel and its spin-off Helluva Boss are buzzing with questions about what’s next. We’ve compiled the latest news and insights to provide a comprehensive look into the future of this unique demonic world, answering the biggest questions about upcoming seasons, potential crossovers, and new projects from Medrano and her studio, SpindleHorse.

The success of Hazbin Hotel on Prime Video has not only solidified its place in mainstream streaming but has also created a tidal wave of momentum for the entire Hellaverse. The show’s first season, with its stunning animation, memorable musical numbers, and compelling characters, has set the stage for a dramatic and highly anticipated second season. For fans eager for more of Charlie, Alastor, and the rest of the crew, the wait is almost over.

Hazbin Hotel: The Path to Redemption and War

The biggest news for Hazbin Hotel fans is the official release date for Season 2: October 29, 2025. This season is set to escalate the conflict that concluded the first season, with a new threat rising to challenge Charlie’s hotel and her mission. The first season ended with Charlie’s hard-won victory against Heaven’s forces, and now the hotel is booming. However, this success has not gone unnoticed. According to recent trailers, the Vees, led by the charismatic and power-hungry Vox, are making a play to take over Heaven itself, placing themselves at the top of the demonic hierarchy. This plotline promises to be a thrilling mix of musical spectacle and political intrigue, pushing Charlie’s ideals to their limit.

• Confirmed Future Seasons: The long-term plan for the series is incredibly promising. Medrano and Prime Video have already confirmed that Seasons 3 and 4 of Hazbin Hotel are on the horizon. This commitment ensures a rich, multi-season narrative arc and provides creators with the freedom to fully develop character backstories and plotlines without the pressure of a one-and-done series.
• Musical Brilliance: A key driver of the show’s popularity has been its original soundtrack. Atlantic Records has partnered with the Hellaverse as the official music partner, a move that not only elevates the series but also provides a significant monetization stream (high CPC) for both shows. Fans can expect new, high-quality songs that continue to flesh out the characters and world.
• The Voice Cast: The star-studded voice cast, including Erika Henningsen, Stephanie Beatriz, and Amir Talai, will all return for Season 2. Additionally, Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump is set to join the cast as the voice of Abel, a new character that will undoubtedly add another layer to the already complex narrative.

Helluva Boss: The Evolution of a Hit Spin-off

While Hazbin Hotel makes the jump to premium streaming, Helluva Boss continues to thrive on its unique path. The second series in the Hellaverse, which follows the misadventures of the assassination-for-hire business I.M.P., has been a fan-favorite on YouTube. However, recent announcements have revealed a major shift for the show’s future. The first two seasons of Helluva Boss, along with a new original episode titled “Mission: Zero,” became available on Prime Video on September 10, 2025. This move is a significant step for indie animation, as it expands the show’s reach to a massive global audience.

• A Prime Video Partnership: Moving forward, new episodes of Helluva Boss will premiere on Prime Video first, with a subsequent release on YouTube. This new model balances the show’s indie roots with the commercial support of a major streaming platform. It also solidifies the canonical connection between the two series and the wider “Hellaverse” brand.
• Seasons 3 and 4 Confirmed: Fans of Blitzø, Moxxie, and the rest of the I.M.P. crew have reason to celebrate, as Seasons 3 and 4 have been officially confirmed. While a release date for Season 3 has yet to be announced, this news ensures that the dark comedy and character-driven storytelling will continue for years to come.
• No Crossovers… For Now: One of the most frequently asked questions from fans is whether characters from Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss will ever cross over. Vivienne Medrano has been clear on this point: the series will remain separate for now. She has explained that the shows exist on different “rings” of Hell—Hazbin Hotel in the Pride Ring where sinners reside, and Helluva Boss exploring the other rings where Hellborns live. This clear separation is a key part of the Hellaverse’s world-building, and Medrano wants to keep the unique tones of each series distinct.

What’s Next for Vivienne Medrano?

Beyond the Hellaverse, Vivienne Medrano is expanding her creative empire. Her studio, SpindleHorse, has announced its first project based on existing IP: an animated pilot for the cult classic webcomic Homestuck. Medrano is serving as an executive producer on the project, with the pilot set to debut on her YouTube channel. This venture demonstrates her desire to explore new styles and technologies, proving she is not content to simply stay within the confines of her successful IP. The move is a significant one, as it could open the door for more independent animation studios to take on similar projects, generating substantial industry buzz and new business opportunities.

In short, the future of the Hellaverse is brighter than ever. With Hazbin Hotel Season 2 on the way, new seasons of Helluva Boss confirmed, and a new venture into the Homestuck universe, Vivienne Medrano is not just a creator; she is a visionary shaping the future of adult animation. The dedication to her craft and her loyal fanbase ensures that the Hellaverse will continue to be a dominant force in the animation world for years to come.
