“This hotel has a darkness!” Yes it does! 😈 Netflix has unveiled the official trailer for an animated series called Haunted Hotel, ready for streaming starting in September. Haunted Hotel features a few “Rick and Morty” veterans on the team – it’s created by writer Matt Roller (of the ep “A Rickle in Time”) and executive produced by Dan Harmon. A single mom with two kids struggles to operate a gigantic haunted hotel called The Undervale. She is aided by her her estranged brother, who is now one of the ghosts haunting the hotel, and who believes they can have ingenious ideas despite his ethereal state. The main voice cast in Haunted Hotel features Will Forte, Eliza Coupe, Skyler Gisondo, Natalie Palamides, and Jimmi Simpson. From this trailer it seems the pitch was: what if we took the hotel from The Shining and turned it into a haunted comedy like Evil Dead II with crazy characters & adventures like “Rick and Morty”. You know what – that sounds pretty damn good! Let’s hope this turns out as fun as it looks from this preview. Check it out below.

This is a show for fans of comedy, horror, horror comedy, families, hotels, cults, monsters with tentacles, monsters without tentacles, werewolves, and blenders.” –Creator Matt Roller
