Morty

Fans are already looing forward to binge watching the enture series

One of the writers from hit show Rick and Morty is bringing ‘chaos energy’ to Netflix in a new animated series fans already can’t wait to fall in love with.

Haunted Hotel is set to be streaming from September 19. Audiences are already anticipating spooky season beginning early as a result.

According to the synopsis released by the streaming giant, the series will follow a single mother of two who struggles to run a haunted hotel. All she has to help her is estranged brother, who is now one of the ghosts haunting the establishment and thinks the other ghosts have some pretty good ideas.

As seen in the trailer, not only does she juggle a son, daughter and a host of ghosts, there’s also a demon trapped inside the body of a boy from the 1700s.

There are also various types of spirits, ghosts and devil like creatures. One even sounds just like the voice of Seth Rogen.

Meanwhile, the main voice cast for Haunted Hotel includes Saturday Night Live alum and The Four Seasons star Will Forte. He’s joined by Scrubs’ Eliza Coupe, one of the stars of new Superman movie Skyler Gisondo, comedian Natalie Palamides, and Jimmi Simpson who many will recognise from Westworld and as one of the McPoyle brothers in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelpihia.

Haunted Hotel is created by Matt Roller, who has previously written for shows including Rick and Morty, Community and Archer. He has also worked on sitcoms Mr. Mayor and The Goldbergs.

Celebrating the series order at Netflix, he said: “I’m thrilled to be working with Netflix and an amazingly talented cast and crew to bring to life the stories of the dead, the evil, and the struggling hospitality workers at the Undervale Hotel,”

Fans are already looking forward to the new show. While it is not yet confirmed how many episodes will consist of its debut season, it’s already looking like a must binge title.

One person, replying to the trailer on social media, commented: “Rick and Morty’s chaotic energy but make it haunted? Yeah… I’m checking in!”

Another added: “t’s giving me Scooby doo vibe!” Sharing a similar sentiment one person posted: “Rick and Morty meets Scooby-Doo energy, but way more unhinged.”

While one person, seemingly excited for Halloween already said: “Spooky comedy just what we need to ease into fall. Will Forte + Rick and Morty creators = yes please”

There were some who spoke with a word of caution. It comes after a year of even more cancellations confirmed at the streamer during 2025. That included many that were only given one season despite reaching millions of views.

Shows such as The Residence, Pulse and Territory all came to a premature end. Fans are already fearful Haunted Hotel will be added to the list.

One person posted: “I can’t wait to fall in love with this show, only to be heartbroken when Netflix inevitably cancels it.”

Another agreed: “Can’t wait to love this show then feel depressed when it’s cancelled on a depressing cliffhanger.”

Haunted Hotel is streaming on Netflix from September 19.

Rick and Morty season eight is set to come to an end soon, but fans have a couple more adventures to look forward to before the series finale.

The eagerly awaited Rick and Morty season eight episode nine is on the horizon, but fans are buzzing to find out what time will Morty Daddy premiere.

Adult Swim and E4‘s cult favourite animated series Rick and Morty bounced back onto screens in June for its eighth outing, delivering a fresh dose of mind-bending and side-splitting escapades every Sunday.

With the anticipation building, here’s when you can tune in to see what chaos the most notorious duo on television will unleash next.

Rick and Morty season 8 episode 9 UK release time

The ninth episode of Rick and Morty season eight, titled Morty Daddy, is scheduled to air this weekend on E4.

Rick and Morty’s penultimate season eight episode is scheduled for Sunday, July 27, at 9pm BST (British Summer Time).

The sitcom’s return comes after Morty Daddy initially aired in the US last Sunday with UK fans treated to episodes a week later.

As per usual, few details are disclosed prior to a new Rick and Morty episode airing, often leaving fans with more questions than answers.

The official synopsis for Morty Daddy reads: “Summer and Rick dine OUT, broh. Fancy restaurant stuff.

“Morty reconnects with someone from his past.”

Series eight premiered on Sunday June 1 and now its 10-episode run is nearing its end, with the grand finale Hot Rick, set to be released next week on Sunday, August 3.

While it’s bittersweet to bid farewell to Rick and Morty once more, the future shines bright for Dan Harmon’s beloved creation.

Last year, Adult Swim renewed the popular animated series for several more seasons, ensuring that Rick and Morty will continue until at least season 12.

However, it’s uncertain when we can expect series nine, given the two-year gap between seasons seven and eight.

Before this, Rick and Morty had been making a yearly return, so fans are hopeful that this pattern will resume.

Rick and Morty is available to watch on E4.
