It expands beyond just the ghosts and they don't waste the season trying to get rid of them or focus on some lore behind the house and they don't focus the entire show on only getting more people to come in the hotel it just serves as starting point for some of the episodes

All I need is my imagination. Two episodes in and honestly, this ain't too bad. It's got a good atmosphere, it's a shame the animation's not great but at least it makes use of the medium to do fun stuff with the ghosts and monsters.

>>150454821
the show genuinely does have a soul (pun not intended) and after a bit you get used to the way it looks but I can't deny a more gothic/dark artstyle would've made it more entertaining. I like it for what it is though and hope its not another one of those netflix shows that gets canceled immediately for no fucking reason (I know it will be)

Final question:
How much horror-loaded essence does the show evoke?
I'm not just talking about jump-scares either. Just a mix referencing the various paranormal imagery, eerie atmosphere, sound effects that convey the epitome of fear and anxiety itself.
That type of essence.

I honestly enjoyed it, it’s a good cozy October watch, the horror refs are fun to pick out, and the characters are fun and genuinely well written (i.e. the Death Day/Possession episode was fantastic in that regard)
>>

>>150446181
For the designated mischievous child character (koala man had a very similar one, hell in a way it feels a lot of these animated sitcoms have the precocious loli type), she ended up being a lot more wholesome than I anticipated. Not particularly funny, but very cute.

Kinda sad her black friend wasn't in the finale, but I guess her presence would have taken away from the idea of abaddon really being her best friend. Wish they had explored the resident hotel ghosts more beyond the 4 or 5 comedy relief ones, wish they had explored the nearby city more (hell in hindsight I'm surprised we even got a school episode at all considering how hotel-centric the show ended up being), wish the suicide reveal or their family situation had been explored a bit more in depth.

Overall I don't regret the hours of my life I took to watch this. Will watch a second season if it ever happens, but it ended pretty cutthroat so I doubt it.

yeah but despite that, and her cute boots, I still can't really find her attractive. a flat chest only goes so far.. i need a nose that doesn't point down and extend out, a mouth that isn't pursed, a head that's not so weird-shaped, and eyes that aren't blue

>>150452525
I already watch grimsburg but I don't see how this is the same. Feels more like a budget gravity falls if anything.

Grimsburg's just not the same brand of supernatural nonsense, and the humor is a bit meaner.

Sounds like a common problem with adult animation if this was a bit more kid facing bet they'd have done it more like a GF type series. Bigger lore to the hotel which slowly gets revealed via ghost that are more focal each being a previous owner or something or some form of core of each decade. So comedic ghost or paranormals but also serious ones as well that can be more recurring or help give idea of a bit more depth.

But thing is with adult animation in west you got to accept that most stuff is gonna be minimum 70% jokey, and not seriously handled.

There is nothing they do to suggest that they are together
>>
>>150458839
Really cute she at least has feelings, most types like her are like gaz or mandy really barely care about having a friend or social interaction. But kind of cute though haven't met her yet but kind of sad it's typically nice nerdy girl at least from design. Idk so often this is a pair they do but it doesn't really work to me, they did it in little demon, in golan the insatiable ducktales etc
>>
>>150458855
Nah esther is just extremely tsundere and likes to hide her need for affection under seven layers of aloof tomboyish coolness. Notice how from the moment glasses states they're friends practically every comment esther sends her way for the rest of the show is a compliment about how smart she is or how beautiful her handwritting is, but always framed as an order or a sigh. This applies to abaddon too kinda, as they're shown to be pretty independant from each other in most episodes but the moment he could potentially go away forever she gets defensive and wants him to stay.

I don't think she's dyke-coded she's just a tomboy that needs friends and a father figure and lots of love but can never be upfront about it.

Yeah, but it's nothing new. They've done this pretty much from the start. Usual theory is that it's a weird way for them to fill contractual season amount obligations without having to put as much money into things.

He seemed to have the start of something like that in the second episode. He really seemed to resonate with the "we're all brothers" thing. But he's also sort of the fourth stooge I feel. The extra guy that's got something going on but won't have too much beyond that until it's time for something really big. Like season finale or mid season episode material I'd think.

Holy shit, I thought the rips I was watching looked a lot worse than some of the screencaps itt, if you're torrenting this get the h264-ETHEL rips and not the x265-MeGusta ones, the latter look like absolute shite. The smaller file size is not worth the terrible compression.

Also Ben's totally supposed to look like Happy Days era Ron Howard, right?

>obviously x265 would be lower quality
Yeah, but it's not usually THIS noticeable a difference. My x265 rips of Bob's Burgers for example are perfectly watchable, this one is absolutely riddled with compression artefacts in every frame.

I download rather than streaming because storage is very cheap these days, I like having local backups rather than relying on flaky streaming sites (both legit and pirate, things get removed from both) and also for taking screenshots.

I seriously hope not, it's the most tiresome cliché in modern animation. But hey, she does talk about her firstborn son so we know she at least intends to get knocked up in the future.
>>
>>150467540
Abaddon knocks her dyke ass up, because he respects the sanctity of the first born son

Also yeah really making her a lesbian is too on the nose, and kind of kills the fun of her vibe and character. Also the black girl is too boring for me to ship it, honestly I'd ship her and abaddon way more since they at least both are faves of mine but even then I'd prefer them have a good friend ep before that

>Shemon - Demon
Did they know what they were doing?

Just finished the show, I thought it was pretty decent. The mom's kinda generic but I like Esther and Ben, and for being the wacky mascot character Abaddon is surprisingly good. I think credit has to go his VA for not hamming it up constantly and actually making him feel a bit more nuanced than he could otherwise have come across. The plots held my attention well enough and while not really all that creepy or spooky it was entertaining paranormal themed fun. Can see it appealing to Gravity Falls fans, while not so much aimed at kids that's probably the closest comparison I can draw.

I actually liked the way they did it also always think ghost not knowing how they died is interesting. Also since the whole key is the siblings I'd also like more parallels in the kids a bit like GF did maybe ben and esther having falling out which could lead to them going down a bad path.

Idk just feels like since siblings being a theme could do a bit more with it. Closest was the dan ep but they really only focused on esther not ben trying to be there for her which would have given it a bit more heart.

>>150471425
Yeah basically, also really for me any ep with abaddon in it is good. Idk esther is great but they really missed a golden opportunity of having her and abaddon being nuisances together.

Makes it weird how in final ep of "S1" they basically set up this oh they are bestie vibe that really was barely shown. They both barely talk in fact through out the season abaddon talks to ben and the mom more than he did to esther.
>>150471465
Kind of feel the same, him and randy. Ben's problem is wanting to be cool and having no real friends. Randy would be a fun re-occuring friend for ben both the awkward nice kid but ben thinks randy is cool because he lies about how he died and having sex.
>>150471473
Well only the next of kin is told, it's up to them to disclose it. Basically aunt rose wouldn't be his main contact and sounds like his mother was alive as well. So yeah she probably just heard through grape vine he died nothing else. Plus most families keep stuff like that under wraps, i had a family member that died like that and we were close and didn't learn for years. It's considered super shameful and makes everyone involved feel guilty and awkward.
>>
>>150471473
Like Katherine did at first, she may have just assumed he already knew.
>>
Nathan's unfinished business is obviously that he wants a successful hotel, Once he is happy to have a successful hotel and admits it, he will vanish to the afterlife. I can tell how the series finale will goes. I hope for a renewal.
>>
Show has been surprisingly fun so far. I liked what they did with this guy. A unique take getting to have a constant eye on one of these slasher killers. Even if my first thought on seeing the bag was it was going to be a Zodiac reference and we were going murder mystery. Of course a Jason one made more sense. Surprisingly sweet ending with him resonating with seeing Esther go through what he did and passing on to Esther and seemingly finding something else to do.
>>
I wonder if it possible for humans to become demons instead of ghosts. Maybe they really need to fuel by so much anger or evil.
>>
I see this Abaddon also loses his arms.
>>
>>150472854
Doesn't seem like a canon way, more you can become a more monsterous type like the killer guy. Abaddon said he's immortal and he seems to be something beyond human. An we know mothman and other beast exist also quasi gods so really unknown what's beyond ghost
>>150472817
I assumed he would still be a killer, just taking time off, since he only kills one day a year, supposedly. Though if that was more what he was going for it is fun and kind of how a cycle goes, hope she uses the lil gardening claw thing make it come full circle
>>
>>150471493
Louise before they made her lame. Which makes me hope Haunted Hotel doesn't follow that route of softening her up (if this show does get more seasons that is)
>>
>>150472854
I mean, they mention in the first episode that ghosts, humans, and demons all have a rock paper scissors thing going on, right? And when you die you become a ghost. Feels like it would be weird if there was a way to go from one to another but not the next. But nothing in the show yet seems to imply that's the case so it's hard to say. We've already seen killers and violent dudes die and just come back as ghosts so it seems like every human who dies just goes ghosts so I don't think you can just die and become a demon.
>>
>>150472975
Yeah, I could see that too. Like we see what he's up to for every other day of the year. Though he gave Esther his gardening tool which was a pivotal part of his motivation it seemed. Without it he's just a guy in a bag which makes me see it as a passing of the torch. But who knows. What I do know is I hope Esther still has that tool in a later episode.

Ok offiically ended the season and yeah not some peak but a fun watch. Especially the abaddon ep, really like he's not so boring or overdone with the old timey voice.

This def is up for best ep, only gripe is they should have emphasized the abaddon friendship with esther. Though it's subtly there and obvious who else could teach her black magic and give her demonic tools and books. Most of the ghost are stupid, but still for what the finale was going for we needed a bit more abaddon and esther moments. Most of his moments are with everyone but her honestly kind of sad.

Also they are really cute together, like how in a way they are each others weakness. Abaddon really hurt her feelings more than we've seen the rest of the season when he said she was just a blip. An him being so concerned for esther and the family even willing to give up his powers shows that as he said guess she wasn't a blip in reality he's officially been with esther longer than anything else in existence.
>>
>>150473099
I guess I'd assume passing the torch officially would end with him aging to death or turning to dust. Because we see him survive falls and being burned with no damage, so what is he just a immortal strawberry guy now lol.

Exactly her first body is with the tool, honestly kind of funny how innocent esther is. We see she's shocked by seeing someone getting genuinely murdered. Abaddon is immortal and same with the bag guy but when she sees abaddon stab a guy she is shocked and says "we threaten to stab". But could see her using it to fight some monster or guys. Wonder if this show will even get a s2

>>150473409
Usually when they do that we'd get at least twenty episodes. Or about that much total. About ten for each "season". And there's usually a year or so hiatus between seasons. Do we know if there's supposed to be more?
>>
>>150473352
Indeed also not the typical cursing swearing sex crazed mascot so already a plus. Also love how he's ready to throw down idk so funny seeing a 17th century boy ready to fight anything
>>150473458
Exactly he actually got a bit of a thing going and can be helpful like the apology scene, the brother scene and the finale. He really feels like part of the cast than just a detriment.
>>150473409
I heard this before but idk if theirs any proof but most netflix animated shows get at least 2 seasons and for how little it had advertisement and hype it's doing fairly well moderate threads and seen a few social posts. Not huge but honestly better than I'd ever expect.
>>
>>150472854
The rock paper scissors thing has me thinking that if humans become ghosts when they die (only if they have unfinished bussiness and/or if they die on hotel grounds), then ghosts might become demons if they "die" a 2nd death rather than movinh on.

Granted abaddon does mention already existing at the beginning of time, and to complete the circle demons would have to become humans when they die, but I dunno it's a theory

> in the first episode that ghosts, humans, and demons all have a rock paper scissors thing going on, right?

This is important in the pilot, and then is never mentioned again. I think it's a pilot only thing, because they face a bunch of demons and the ghosts don't ever seem to effect them or have any power over them. Heck, Humans don't even seem to have any power over ghosts after the pilot.
>>
>>150477114
I thought it was just an immunity thing so it's still technically correct.
>>
>>150477114
Yeah weird how that works, thought the finale and assyrian demon ep would involve more of the ghost helping.

Also another flaw of the show or more sad point is gravely underpowering ghost. I get it's to make the ghost more sympathetic and just zanny guest or almost pet like. But most should at least have telekinesis or something, in fact the fact they walk is a interesting one since it's made into a big talking point.

I think monsters and demons will just be big deals as they seem to be the............well monsters of the week lol.
>>
>>150477114
Yeah you know I think you're right. Like how Ben was a conduit for ghosts. Guess it's one of those set up things that probably won't matter much until a season finale or something. Like the mirror that was in the attic or that girl who we saw hanging out there staring at it. Haven't finished it yet so I'm going to assume that's an aspect of the season finale but it feels like it would be.
>>
Thinking of drawing some more esther or some abaddon or both. Any refs anons
>>
>>150477160
>sad point is gravely underpowering ghost
Yeah, I don't really like that aspect so much. I guess it makes some sense since they're dead and all but even "real ghosts sightings" have ghosts push stuff around a bit. I'd think they could at least put a little pressure on things. It's kind of a fucked up existence the way they're shown in the show so far.

No clue. For her body to end up stuck in the walls I'd have guessed she got murdered and had her body stuffed in the walls. But then why did the murder not take the jewel? If not murder then it could have just been an accident. Like there was some work done on a wall in the second or third floor of the hotel and she fell through it and had the unfortunate luck of no one noting she was down there.
>>

>This is important in the pilot, and then is never mentioned again

>>150477474
It's a unique look for sure. Don't remember the last time I saw something like it in a cartoon.

>>150477488
From the way ghosts work in the show, her body must have received the necklace after she died because her ghost doesn't seem to have it.
>>
>>150477559
See that's what I was wondering too. Like Annabelle had her jewelry and clothes after she died. So I guess they died with her. But Esther mentions she was buried with the diamond around the hotel, so does that mean someone intentionally buried her after she died and did it with the necklace and did it by stuffing her in the hotel? What the heck kind of burial is that?

This gave the feeling that has a decent foundational season 1, then has a great season 2 and 3, before quality begins to fall with season 4. The animation itself was much nicer than other “adult” shows which makes it more appealing than many others on Netflix.

But it’s Netflix so I’m ready for there to only be a Season 2 before it’s cancelled for not having the right balance of Squid Game viewing numbers vs Big Mouth cost to make.

>abaddon

>>
>>150477114
I think in many of those cases they arent fighting demons.
Like the water mill or mothman.
Those are monsters which means they are living beings instead so immune to ghosts.
And the assyrian demon was numerous compared to the pilot demon which was large, by itself and slow
Demons clearly cant possess a ghost or harm them long term. So it would seem that ghosts can win against demons by endlessly fighting them that theyd be unable to possess humans or even if possessing them a ghost can punch a demon even inside a body.
Nathan just doesnt seem the type to be good at fighting
>>
>>150478152
Mischievous, adorable, and learning what she really wants and taking it for herself. Damn good Esther. Cool seeing this one finished up. I do love Esther but it does look like Abaddon has his fans and he's definitely cute so if you're feeling him go for it. What ever you're feeling man. Either way rest up if you're tired. You're nailing it already.

I liked it but I didn't really buy this whole best friends schtick in the final episode. Abbadon barely interacted with her in the season and spent way more time with the mother and the boys. What little we do see of the two interacting is far more antagonistic than the we have our own secret handshake they were doing in the season finale.

It's not super common but it happens more often than you'd think, known many goth girls and seen very peppy senpaitachi then the one punk goth looking girl. One of the funniest I saw was a family on a florida beach vacation during the summer and the little goth daughter probably like 3-4 years younger than me at time.

She's in a full shawl and covered in black had torn jeans and boots on a beach front. I tried not to laugh because I just knew she was dying of a heatstroke. But seemed like a chill family they even talked with mine just friendly, girl wasn't even a bitch or anything just goth a bit of a downer but not rude or anything. So it happens really just more fashion choice or a "phase"
