Netflix is booking another stay at Haunted Hotel.
The streamer has ordered a second season of the animated series from Rick and Morty alum Matt Roller. The renewal was a quick one: Haunted Hotel premiered just one week ago. The 10-episode season made into Netflix’s top 10 English-language series worldwide for its opening weekend, gathering 1.8 million views (7.5 million hours of viewing divided by a run time of 4 hours, 14 minutes) in its first three days.
The series has received mixed-to-positive reviews, with THR noting that “Despite a solid cast and some decent jokes, the series rarely rises above the level of pleasantly unobjectionable.”
Haunted Hotel centers on a single mother (voiced by Eliza Coupe) who runs a — wait for it — haunted hotel along with her estranged brother (Will Forte), who happens to be one of the ghosts who inhabit the property and really thinks the other spirits have some good ideas about the place. Skyler Gisondo, Natalie Palamides and Jimmi Simpson also star.
Titmouse (Big Mouth, Star Trek: Lower Decks) is the animation studio on Haunted Hotel. Roller created the series and executive produces with Chris McKenna, Dan Harmon, Steve Levy and Titmouse’s Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio and Ben Kalina. Erica Hayes is supervising director.
