Hazbin Hotel began as a 2019 YouTube pilot by Vivienne Medrano before becoming a Prime Video series in 2024. Lucifer Morningstar, voiced by Jeremy Jordan, is Charlie's father and the King of Hell, defined in the show by his love of rubber ducks and circus imagery. His duck-like ringtone became a small fan-favorite detail online, clipped and shared by fans as a standalone sound for edits, alerts, and memes because it sums up the character in a few seconds.
