LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Hazbin Hotel', a new adult animated series on Prime Video, follows the story of Charlie Morningstar, the Princess of Hell, who takes up the task of rehabilitating sinners.

The pilot episode of 'Hazbin Hotel' narrated Lucifer's backstory and how the angels pushed him and Lilith into the dark pit of hell.

While Lilith grew the power of Hell, Lucifer lost his will to dream, lived in depression, and had a strained relationship with his daughter.

As Charlie Morningstar fails to find a way to connect with Heaven, she calls up her father, Lucifer. Delighted to get a call from her, he soon arrives at the Hazbin Hotel.

However, he seems unimpressed with the whole idea of redemption and states that residents of Hell are 'awful'.

He goes on to mention that Heaven isn't exactly what one assumes it to be, ruled by narrow-minded angles and residents bound by several rules.

Lucifer asserts that all his previous attempts failed which made him give up on his dreams. However, Charlie's optimism motivates him to give it another shot.

Lucifer Morningstar to arrange a meeting with Heaven

As Lucifer and Charlie rediscover their bond in pursuit of a shared dream, Lucifer reluctantly agrees to organize a meeting with Heaven. However, he makes it clear that he won't actively take part in the gathering.

Charlie's previous meeting with Adam, a leader of Heaven, hadn't been fruitful. However, she hopes that talking to the authorities higher than Adam could stop the sudden extermination. She also plans to pitch the concept of Hazbin Hotel to Heaven.

Angered by the angel's murder during the previous extermination, will Heaven agree to a meeting? Will Heaven and Hell ever come together to pave a path for redemption?

Six episodes of 'Hazbin Hotel' are streaming on Prime Video.
