One of the biggest mysteries in Hazbin Hotel is the question of who owns Alastor’s soul. A popular theory is that it’s Lilith, with the main “evidence” being that both she and Alastor were gone for seven years. I considered that possibility at first, but the more I thought about it, the more it felt too simplistic. If this mystery is meant to carry weight, then relying on something as straightforward as a shared absence comes across as contrived and ultimately anticlimactic.

Personally, I think Viv intentionally set up that parallel to make fans suspect Lilith, only so the actual reveal will hit much harder and feel far more surprising.

Vaggie: “ We told you to leave it alone.”

Lucifer: “ But that asshole made Charlie cry.”

Angel: “Charlie always cries.”

Charlie: *scoffs*...”Thats not true 😭”

Context: One of the guests at the hotel upset Charlie, so Lucifer went to have “a word” with them.

Lucifer headcanons:

He’s an amazing cook, though pancakes are his favorite—they’re the ultimate comfort food. Feeling down? A pancake will fix that.

He’s fluent in every language imaginable.

When he gazes into a sinner’s eyes, memories of their life before Hell flash before him.

A perfectionist through and through—if something’s even slightly off, he won’t hesitate to start over.

Sometimes during his daughter’s hotel events, he drifts off—not because he’s distracted, but because he’s tuned into the countless souls in Hell who pray to him.

Every duck he’s crafted has its own unique flair and abilities. Some even came to life by accident.

He can talk to animals and often chats with the hotel’s pets.

His mood directly influences the weather in Hell.

Though he seems small and fragile, he’s surprisingly heavy. Alastor once tried lifting him just to mock him, but struggled to get him off the ground—Lucifer was genuinely baffled.

He gets summoned to the human world frequently, often unexpectedly.

He sees the chains that bind souls to their owners.

He knew about Charlie’s deal the moment he was struck

[roselemari]

Charlie: So, Mom, what’s your first royal act now that you’re back?

Alastor: The return of the Queen, surely marked by divine fury and calculated dominance. I anticipate a speech, a proclamation, perhaps a purge of—

Lilith: Actually, I’m sitting down with Lucifer to go over every single duck in his collection. I need to know their names and abilities .

Alastor: *Smile tightens*

…What abilities could a rubber duck possibly possess?

Lucifer: *appearing out of nowhere, holding a clipboard*

I’m so glad you asked.

Alastor: NO I DIDN’T—

Lucifer: There’s ‘General Quackthorn’. He commands the Aquatic Legion. His beak glows when near bubble bath.

Then there’s ‘Madame Soapsworth’—she sings when submerged. Tragically, she’s tone-deaf, but her spirit? Impeccable.

Lilith: He spent a whole weekend crafting her backstory. It’s heartbreaking, really.

Lucifer: And then there’s ‘The Elduck Horror’. You don’t squeeze him. You summon him.

Alastor: *silently screaming*

Charlie: *pretending that this is normal*

[roselemari]

*Lilith bursting into the hotel*

Lilith: “LUCIFER!”

Lucifer: “Lili?!”

Charlie: “Mom?!”

Lilith: “what is this?!”

* Displays out-of-context images of Lucifer and Alastor*

Lucifer: “Lili it’s not what you think”

Alastor: “my,my, what’s all the commotion”

Lilith: “you home wrecking slut!”

Alastor: “Pardon?”

Lilith: *attacks Alastor*

Charlie: “Mom, No! Dad help me!”

Lucifer: *cheering on his wife* “Grab him by the ears!”

Charlie: “Dad!”

[roselemari]

I’ve always wondered—what if Lucifer eats like a snake? No chewing, just swallows everything whole. And if the meal’s too big? Easy—he unhinges his jaw.

Now picture this: it’s his first dinner with Charlie and the hotel residents. Alastor’s cooked his famous jambalaya, and everyone’s enjoying the food, chatting and taking their time. Then suddenly, everything goes silent. Lucifer calmly lifts his plate, unhinges his jaw like it’s the most normal thing in the world, and pours the entire meal straight down his throat in one go. The room freezes—forks mid-air, eyes wide, conversation dead. Absolute horror.

*Alastor kissing Lucifer’s hand*

Charlie: “aww how sweet”

*Lucifer rips hand right off*

Charlie: “DAD WHAT THE HELL!”

Lucifer: “what? it’s tainted now don’t worry sweetie it will grow back”

Inspiration from this one comic: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8r4hGyT/

*lucifer is touch-starved but he’s not stupid, I think he would know if/when Alastor is putting up an act. Not only that Vaggie, husk, and Angel would be suspicious as well, given the type of character Alastor is. One day you’re throwing insults and jabs at the guy you dislike the next you’re being chivalrous and charming. Yeah something’s up*

*charlie finding out about her dad and Alastor’s relationship*

Charlie: “I can’t believe this”

Lucifer: “I know it’s shocking and I just want to say, that the process leading up to it. Was completely yours and Alastor’s fault”

Charlie: “what?!”

Alastor: “Excuse me?!”

Lucifer: *points to Charlie* you kept insisting we spend time together and even kept pairing us up for activities. *points to Alastor* and you kept going out of your way to bother me anytime I wanted to be left alone

Charlie: “I just wanted you two to be friends!”

Alastor: “I just wanted to be a nuisance”

Lucifer: “well it backfired on both you”

- I love how Charlie is totally caught off guard when she discovers her dad’s relationship with Alastor—but honestly, if you keep making two people spend so much time together, something was bound to develop eventually.

[roselemari]

Charlie: “Dad have you seen Alastor around?”

Lucifer: “Hmm?…oh yes, your little bellhop was starting to get fussy so I sent him away to his room.”

*loud banging noises can be heard*

Vaggie: “The hell is that?”

Lucifer: “That would be him, he’s been trying to get out of his room for the past hour”

Headcanon: since lucifer isn’t intimated by Alastor and he’s older than everyone in the hotel, sometimes when Alastor goes all eldritch horror Lucifer sees it as him throwing a tantrum.

Anytime I see Viv reposting Lucilith fanart. It reminds me that their love might still be strong—it gives me a sense of hope for them.

Imagine-

Alastor figures he can take advantage of Lucifer’s lack of physical affection, hoping to manipulate him through calculated touches and flirtation. But the plan backfires—Lucifer doesn’t blush or stumble over his words. Instead, he just gives Alastor a perplexed or slightly irritated stare.

To top it off, Lucifer ends up thinking Alastor might actually have romantic feelings for him. The catch? He doesn’t feel the same way and isn’t even remotely interested in him like that.

Soon, others around the hotel start to believe the same thing and feel a bit sorry for Alastor. After all, being turned down is bad enough—getting turned down by the king of Hell? Brutal.

And then there’s Alastor, completely fed up. Not only is his plan failing miserably, but now he’s stuck with awkward, pitying looks from everyone around him—which just makes his mood worse.

[roselemari]

Lucifer strode toward the couch, eyes fixed on his wife, ready to take his rightful place by her side—only to freeze as Alastor slid in beside her, wearing a smug, defiant grin. Their eyes locked in tense silence, the air practically crackling with challenge. But before either could speak, Lilith—calm, composed, and unbothered—raised a hand and struck Alastor sharply on the back of the head. The force sent him toppling off the couch, pride and all.

Lilith (coolly): “Oh, forgive me, dear. You had something clinging to you.”

Alastor (gritting his teeth): “And what, exactly, was it?”

Lilith (with icy grace): “Audacity.”

[roselemari]

Alastor: “Angel”

Angel: “yeah”

Alastor: “Vaggie knows about us”

*gestures between him and Lucifer*

Angel: “well I didn’t tell them”

Lucifer: “Them?! who’s them?!”

Angel: “uhh..Vaggie and Angel”

Lucifer: “Angel”

Angel: “and Niffty”

[roselemari]

*after Lucifer found out about Charlie’s deal with Alastor*

Lucifer: “I am at a loss for words”

Charlie: “despite being lost for words, my dad yelled at me for the next 45 minutes”

- Whether it’s for a soul or something as small as a favor, I see Lucifer treating deals with the utmost seriousness. As the Devil and the original deal-maker, he knows that every word matters. Charlie’s agreement with Alastor was open-ended, and while Lucifer would no doubt be furious with Alastor for taking advantage of his daughter’s vulnerable state, he likely wouldn’t be surprised—it’s in Alastor’s nature. Instead, I imagine Lucifer being more disappointed in Charlie than angry. He’d probably give her a stern lecture about the dangers of making deals, especially when you’re desperate. With exterminations starting earlier than expected and Alastor holding key information on how to stop the Exorcists, Charlie felt trapped and acted out of desperation. That’s when she made the deal—a risky move her father would see as a serious mistake.

Part one post here

*After telling Charlie about Alastor*

Charlie: "Alastor, you shouldn't have kept your injury from us. We could have helped you."

Alastor: 'Your concern is appreciated, my dear, but I had it all under control."

Charlie: "I know you don't like asking for help, but we're like a family in this hotel, and we all care about you....Right, guys?"

*awkward silence*

Charlie: "Dad?...Vaggie?"

*reluctant mumbling*

Vaggie: "......fine....."

Lucifer: "......sure...."

Alastor: *annoyed radio noises*

Happy Birthday, Angel!

 Imagine this: 

No one at the hotel had a clue it was Angel’s birthday—until Lucifer casually walked up, handed him a rubber duck that looked just like himself, and wished him a happy birthday. That’s when chaos erupted. Charlie, completely unaware up until that moment, panicked and immediately insisted they throw a celebration.

Determined to make it special, she rallied everyone to set up a party. While the others decorated the hotel, cooked Angel’s favorite dishes, and baked his favorite desserts, Lucifer took Angel and Cherri on a shopping trip to the Lust Ring. While exploring, Angel had an unexpected but thrilling encounter with his idol, Asmodeus.

By the time they returned, the hotel had been transformed, ready for a full-blown celebration. Angel partied with his friends, excitedly sharing stories of his adventure in Lust. As the night went on, Charlie gave a heartfelt speech about how much he meant to everyone. The night became even more memorable when Husk surprised Angel with a kiss.

But the best moment of all? Lucifer arranged a video call with Angel’s twin sister, Molly, in Heaven—an unexpected gift that made the whole celebration truly unforgettable.

(side note: Lucifer knew it was Angel's birthday because, whenever a new soul arrives in Hell, he automatically receives a file on them. The file contains key details, including their birth date, the date of their death, and the reasons they ended up in Hell. )

[roselemari]

Alastor: “Poor Charlie was beside herself without her dear father around. Lucky for her, I was there to fill the void—like the father figure she so desperately needed.”

Lucifer: “Hmm… I imagine your mother felt a similar pain when she realized her beloved son would never stand by her side in Heaven. Poor woman must blame herself for your fate down here. But don’t worry, I’m sure she’s found a sweet little angel to cherish—something to ease the void you left behind.”

- If Alastor can use Charlie to get under Lucifer’s skin, then why can’t Lucifer do the same with Alastor using his mother?
