In your hands, the Asmodean Crystal gleams, pulsating with an otherworldly light. You know you shouldn’t be toying with it; it was something you stumbled upon, lost and forgotten, an object not meant for your world. Yet, curiosity has always been your guiding star.
Manipulating the dazzling gem, your heart races as you aim it toward the empty space in front of you. With a whispered thought, the air shimmers, warping into a vortex of colors, pulling at the fabric of reality itself. You gasp, stepping back, but the portal has opened.
You didn’t even mean for it to work, but now you can see it: the gateway to Hell or something very close to it. Before you is the Hazbin Hotel, its tall, grotesquely ornate structure beckoning you with a dark allure. What's the harm in just a peek?
Steeling your nerves, you step through the portal, feeling the air change around you, thickening with an oppressive weight. The hotel stands tall, imposing, and beautiful in its decrepit splendor. Its mixture of arched windows, turrets, carnival fragments, and neon lights create a surreal and almost mystical atmosphere. The "HOTEL" sign lights up with an eerie welcoming glow.
You move quickly past the entrance's ticket booth and the stained glass double doors, which seem recently repaired and almost out of place. Once inside, the ethereal quiet swallows you whole. The lobby, filled with lavish yet haphazardly placed furniture, welcomes you. Your eyes spot the grand lounge and, on tables, a plethora of food and drinks.
Your stomach growls. How long has it been since you last ate? Seizing the opportunity, you devour a selection from the spread, the combination of sweet and savory revitalizing your spirit.
Suddenly, voices drift from the corridors, and fear grips you. You hide behind a shabby crate, heart pounding. A plethora of demons—each unique and intimidating—emerge, bickering and searching for whoever has consumed their snacks.
“Okay, who the fuck ate my cake?” Vaggie’s voice is sharp, her eyes narrowed in suspicion.
Angel Dust chimes in with a dismissive laugh, “Don’t look at me, I would've gone for the booze first.”
Husk groans, “I just want my damn whiskey. This place is driving me to drink more, and that’s saying something.”
Despite your guilt, you stifle a giggle at their frustration. You never meant to upset them, and now you know better. Lurking quietly, you remain unseen as Hell’s denizens continue their search.
Later, feeling an urgent call of nature, you sneak into one of the hotel's restrooms. While you handle your business, the very residence of Hell who have no need for such human necessities gossip outside, revolted by the resulting odor.
“Oh, what died in there?!” Niffty exclaims, her single eye darting around in repulsion.
“You mean other than us?” Angel Dust snickers, waving his hand dismissively.
Vaggie groans, “Someone better fess up because *God dammit* that’s foul.”
You bite your lip, trying not to laugh, despite the situation. The demons’ exaggerated reactions to mundane human functions are darkly amusing to you.
Days blend into weeks, and you make a game of staying hidden. The hotel’s vast size aids your clandestine lifestyle until your luck eventually runs out. During a quiet moment, rummaging for more food, you feel a pair of eyes on you. You turn and see Niffty’s wide, manic grin.
"A human! Charlie! Look what I found!" she screeches with delight, her voice echoing.
Your heart stops as you bolt. The chase is on, and the rumors of a human within the Hazbin Hotel spread like Hellfire.
Eventually, more demons catch up to you. Their figures loom over you, and Alastor steps forward, his grin twisted with a wicked delight.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here?" His voice drips with malicious glee. “A human, so out of place, so deliciously terrified. This will entertain me greatly.”
Before you can even explain, before you can beg for mercy, darkness claims you. Pain beyond measure, reality unravels, and you are torn apart, sacrificed to Hell in blood and gore.
Reborn as a sinner demon, your conscience remains intact—a cruel irony for your curious misadventure. Then, drawn by an unknown pull, you find yourself back at the Hazbin Hotel, seeking redemption from the very beings you once hid from.
Charlie greets you warmly, her radiant optimism shining through Hell's grim veneer. "Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel. We can help you find redemption here."
As you begin your new life among the sinners and saints, the hope of one day reaching heaven becomes your guiding light. Your past errors, your curiosity, led you here. But perhaps, it will lead you to salvation yet.

Prompt: Write a POV story of a human, who finds an Asmodean Crystal (which Blitzo (an imp from an adults cartoon/animated series Helluva Boss) accidentally dropped one of them during his mission with the other crewmembers of I.M.P. including Moxxie, Millie, and Loona) and decided, out of innocent curiosity, to test out the Asmodean Crystal to see what happens. The portal to Hell then opens to reveals the entrance to the Hazbin Hotel (from the namesake adults cartoon/animated series "Hazbin Hotel"), and the human (with no ill intent and with pure curiosity) enters the portal and into Hell before he/she goes through the hotel's entrance doors and enters inside the Hazbin Hotel without the hotel's staff or guests/clients/patrons knowing. Here is what the hotel looks like; The Hazbin Hotel exterior is a tall, elaborate amalgamation of arched windows and turrets, one of which seems to be broken. It appears to be at least seven stories tall, with at least five of which being guest floors. Remnants of an airship, an ocean liner, a sailing ship and a carousel litter both sides and appear to have been incorporated into the structure of the building itself; there is also a train with some tracks looping the first and second floor exterior. Located on the top right of the building is a small radio broadcasting room, which is used as the work area for Alastor. Many signs are displayed outside the hotel: One atop the entrance reminiscent of the Hazbin Hotel logo, a large pink one atop the building with the hotel's name in lights, a neon 'HOTEL' sign at the bottom right and atop the building where Alastor's broadcast room is located, a small 'On-Air' sign is visible. Also located on the outer facade are various arrows pointing to the entrance and the broadcast room. The entrance has a tented cover with a booth in the center reminiscent of a circus or theater ticket booth. On either side of the booth are a set of double doors that have stained glass; in the pilot, they once depicted an apple on each one but were destroyed by an explosion due to Sir Pentious blowing up the doors with his airship (prior to Sir Pentious changing ways to become a nicer person before redeeming himself and becoming a saint angel (after his willing sacrifice against the series' main antagonist Adam (the exorcist angel) just before Adam is defeated by Lucifer Morningstar and killed by Niffty) in the season 1's finale episode "The Show Must Go On"). The hotel's interior (prior to this story) was shown to be in a state of disrepair, with wooden boards covering shattered windows, signs warning of asbestos, bloodied tools left lying around, and paintings are shown hanging off the walls (however, just after the season 1's finale episode "The Show Must Go On", these have been fixed after the hotel was rebuilt by Charlie's father Lucifer Morningstar). Much of the furniture in the lobby are strewn around haphazardly or remain boxed up in several large wooden crates. The bar uses skeletons, snakes, and bones as general themes, along with card suits and candles, and advertises itself as a casino. The area the bar in has glowing green wooden walls instead of the usual red wallpaper, with a "Jackpot" sign on the left wall and a Beelzejuice neon sign on the right wall. The word "concierge" can be presumed to be shown above the bar, and Alastor calls it the front desk when talking to Husk, suggesting that it is also the check-in counter. Despite the shabby and poor condition of the hotel, the overall theme of the building remains ornate and regal, with stained glass windows, lavish furniture, and generous usage of gold. Like the rest of Hell, the hotel has a largely red color scheme. There are many apple, snake and circus motifs throughout the hotel's interior, in reference to Charlie Morningstar's royal family, or more specifically, Lucifer Morningstar. Eyes are also a recurring theme throughout the building, appearing on the frame of almost every single painting and several vases and jars. The room the two women (Charlie Morningstar and Vaggie) share is rather large, with a regal look and a large bed, and has a window with a view of Pentagram City. Angel Dust's room has striped wallpaper, a vanity, mirrors, a place to put his wigs, and a bed with several pillows of various design, while beside it is a small bed for Fat Nuggets shaped like a pink heart with a small pillow on top, and with both beds on a single platform with neon lights. The wall behind the bed has photos of him, Cherri, and Fat Nuggets, as well as a couple of his film posters, while the bedside wall has neon lights shaped like webs. The door to his room has neon lights shaped like webs with hearts, and has three photos of him and his friends, and Fat Nuggets. Alastor's room has a mixture between both traditional décor and the fantastical, with one half being a classic "fancy study", complete with tasteful wallpaper and furnishings, the other half being a literal swamp conjured as a dining area. Sir Pentious' room (prior to Sir Pentious' death and sacrifice in the season 1's finale episode "The Show Must Go On") shared his (Sir Pentious') airship's steampunk aesthetics of golden cogs and gears and a red and black color scheme, while his bed was a circular mattress lined with pillows; this room is now currently vacant due to Sir Pentious' invented sacrifice. After going through the hotel's doors, the human finds finds himself/herself in the hotel's lounge room before finding the food and drinks on the table and consumes some of them (he wrongly believes no one will mind this, wrongly believing that the food are for everyone to eat and drink), since he/she is both hungry and thirsty (because he/she has not eaten for a day, so he/she needs food and something to drink). The human then goes into hiding within the hotel to avoid being discovered by Charlie Morningstar (founder of the Hazbin Hotel who is the daughter of King Lucifer Morningstar and Queen Lilith Morningstar, and was born in Hell, hence her status as a hellborn demon), Vaggie (lesbian manager of the Hazbin Hotel and Charlie's girlfriend (Vaggie sometimes swears/cusses), formerly an heavenborn exorcist angel but was banished by Lute to Hell for refusing to kill a sinner demon), Angel Dust (a tall and gay spider-like sinner demon (formerly a human but succumbed to an overdose sometime in his early 30s in 1947 and arrived in Hell as a sinner demon), an adult entertainer (he even swears/cusses), and the first volunteer for Charlie's Hazbin Hotel (which is a rehabilitation program)), Alastor (an eccentric sinner demon (who was once a human, but died in 1933 due to a dog-related incident), and one of the overlords of Hell), Husk (an ill-tempered, gambling, alcoholic cat-like sinner demon (he even swears/cusses), who was once a human, but he died in the 1970s after being ambushed with his platoon, captured, tortured, beaten, and possibly from alcohol overdose, and he arrives in Hell as a sinner demon), Niffty (a small, hyperactive cyclops-like sinner demon who was once a human woman from the 1950s before her death and arriving in Hell as a sinner demon), Razzle (a small and winged goat-like demon who serve as Charlie's bodyguard), Fat Nuggets (Angel Dust's demonic pet pig), or KeeKee (Charlie's pet demonic mouthless cyclops cat); none of the demons know who really ate the food minutes, so either Vaggie, Angel Dust, or Husk gets really angry about their food getting eaten (the human doesn't mean to upset anyone, since he/she didn't know the food belonged to the hotel's demons). This makes the human quietly snicker out in amusement (he/she finds the demons' complaints about the stolen food and drinks kinda funny, even if the human feels guilty). The human then felt like he/she had to pee/poop, so he/she also uses one of the hotel's restrooms to get rid of his/her pee and poop, while he/she also does not get caught by the demons; the demons (mainly Vaggie, Angel Dust, and Husk, but Niffty also is grossed out by the smell) smell the nasty odor, which the human doesn't find too bad unlike the demons, and just like how these demons complained about their food and drinks being eaten earlier, these demons complain about that awful smell coming from the restroom (despite the human having already flushed the toilet, the smell still lingers, but the smell is not too terrible (and not that different from Earth and is identical to the smell back on Earth) to the human unlike to the demons, which to them smells very bad), while these demons do not know it was the human who made that smell. This also makes the human quietly snicker out in amusement (he/she finds the demons' complaints about the bathroom's smell kinda funny, even if the human feels guilty). However, while the human's secrecy in the Hazbin Hotel has lasted for a long while (either for several days or weeks, despite causing the restroom's smell and the food and drinks being consumed by the human himself/herself), is then (much to his/her horror) discovered by one of the Hazbin Hotel's occupants, discovered by either Niffty (who would then smile/grin and scream out of excitement to let the other demons know), or Razzle (who is completely silent, but will still let the other demons know even without speech), or one of the hotel's pets (Fat Nuggets or KeeKee), leading to rumors of a human inhabiting the hotel among the demons. Sadly and eventually (either hours or days later after the first demon finds the human), the human, much to his/her horror, is found by another demon, who yells/tells other demons about his/her presence to let them about it. The demons then surround the human before one of them (most likely Alastor, who enjoys chaos such as this) brutally kills the human (blood and gore involved) either through black magic (using dark magic) or cannibalism (devouring/eating the human). After the human's death, the human then manifests in Pentagram City (located in the Pride Ring of Hell) as a sinner demon due to his/her sinful trespassing into the Hazbin Hotel. Later, the sinner demon (formerly the human himself/herself) wants to be rehabilitated (in short, redeemed) so he/she could hopefully one day be accepted by Heaven and manifest in Heaven as a saint angel (which are unlike heavenborn angels, which were always born angels, the saint angels were once humans before they died), so the sinner demon (formerly the human himself/herself) enters the Hazbin Hotel and is welcomed by Charlie Morningstar, and the sinner demon (formerly the human himself/herself) starts trying to redeem himself/herself and socializes with the Hazbin Hotel's other clients/patrons in a healthy/positive and non-sinful manner, in hopes that one day he/she will be redeemed. There should also be quotes (including swear words such as, but not limited to f-bombs, coming from Vaggie, Angel Dust, and Husk) from the characters in this story so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the human reader (you, your, etc).
