Appearance[]

Valentino is a slender moth demon measuring 3 meters tall with pale blue skin, has 2 pairs of arms, black hands, and hot pink eyes, and two antennas: one looks like a feather with a zebra print while the other looks damaged and has pink, pointed teeth. He wears a long scarlet red coat edged in fur with its creamy white down (which makes up his body) as a collar in which are implanted little red hearts, fluffy white cuffs with a matching top hat. He wears long black boots with stiletto heels and pink and gold heart-shaped sunglasses. He also has a golden tooth like Angel Dust.

Under his coat, he wears a dark grey jacket that shows his chest, held together with two gold buttons, and with the sleeves rolled up, alongside white pants with a black belt that has a golden love-heart-shaped buckle. He accessorizes with a gold chain hung down to his chest, gold arm bands, each hand having one gold ring, and sometimes gold nail guards on his fingers.

Biography[]

Backstory[]

Nothing is known of Valentino's past as a human. When he died in the 1970s and went to Hell, reborn as a demon, he became one of the most powerful demons in Hell and owns his own porn studio.

Pilot[]

In the Pilot episode, Valentino is seen alongside Vox and Velvette while the exterminators finish up their work and text Angel Dust to go back to work without the sass. Valentino later appears in a flashback alongside the other Overlords when Vaggie explains to Angel Dust who Alastor is.

Season 1[]

In the main show, he is a major antagonist, mostly treating his subordinates like slaves and oftentimes resorting to violently killing anyone in one of his moods, best shown during a Facetime chat between Vox and Velvette where he murders the latter's best model out of anger offscreen. He uses a variety of tactics to get them to do his bidding, including torture, emotional manipulation, and drugs. He seems to only care about others for their ability to serve and enrich him.

Notably, when Charlie Morningstar tries to help Angel Dust by following him to the studio, Valentino pretends to respect her the first time they meet by disturbingly licking her arm and offering her a position as a "star" at his studio, which she declines. However, he gets vicious with Angel Dust at the same time when Charlie accidentally sets fire to the film's setting, beating Angel into submission and reminding him that he owns him and his soul. He proceeds to order him to get rid of Charlie while threatening her life; once she leaves, his abusive behavior towards Angel continues, forcing him to do multiple porn videos during his song “Poison”.

He later appears in a nightclub ironically titled "Consent" accompanied by two demon women whom he attempts to recruit while threatening to kill a waiter if he doesn't bring him another drink. There he runs into Angel and a drunk Nifty. He then tries to recruit Nifty much to Angel's disgust who tells him that while he may own him he won't harm any of his friends. When Valentino reminds of the fact that he owns his soul Angel retorts that he only does so only on set. Valentino responds by punching him in the face and promising to make him suffer at work the next day. Nifty then rips off part of his fur, much to Valentino's shock and bafflement.

In the finale he joins Vox and Velvette in watching Adam's attack on the hotel, generally joining Velvette in her bored and uninterested reaction while Vox is ecstatic over seeing Alastor getting beaten and almost killed by the exorcist. He later remarks amused interest about Lucifer telling Adam he's going to fuck him and shares part of the final song with Vox where the two overlords express excitement over Alastors defeat and plot to take advantage which is filmed by Velvette before the three share in a group hug. Valentino and the other Vees witnessed Niffty's sadisms when killing Adam (although Vox is amazed).

Other Appearances[]

In The Comics[]

Dirty Healings[]

Valentino appears in the prequel comics being Angel Dust's boss and killed a buyer who tried to cheat him out of his money and Angel goes into the limo as Valentino calls him. He later asks Angel why he wasn't in the studio and about his business and affairs, Angel Dust simply tries to tell Valentino that he sneaked out of the studio to simply help him but Valentino is angry at him for not staying at the studio and very clearly threatens to not do it again.

In The Music Videos[]

Addict[]

In this music video, Valentino's character is shown more in-depth, as he watches Angel Dust's pole dancing. It is revealed in his limousine that he takes most of Angel Dust's earnings for himself. While there, Valentino forcibly kisses Angel, and it is shown that he has raped him enough times to give Angel trauma.

Personality and Traits[]

I have KILLED bitches for less than this attitude you're giving me! You're LUCKY you make me money! Now, you're going to go get rid of her, and then you're filming ALL NIGHT! Get me?!
~ Valentino as he threatens Angel.

Valentino is a vicious demon overlord who abuses his employee, Angel Dust. He is cruel, ruthless, sadistic, and perverted, forcing Angel Dust to kiss him against his will and forcing him to have sex with him regularly. Valentino's torment of Angel seems to border on obsession, causing Val to latch onto Angel at all times and become more chaotic and unstable when Angel rejects him.

While the extent of their relationship isn't known, he seems to at least get along with Vox and Velvette, as he lets them wait out the recent extermination of Hell inside his studio, especially when they should at a more appropriate moment.

While on his and Vox's Instagram, the relationship is an on-off again romantic one, though it is clearly abusive, as Vox is on the receiving end of Val's abuse. Val has a habit of breaking Vox's screen for petty reasons, such as not giving him the drink he wants. He also belittles Vox for getting him a bigger TV as an apology gift and says he'd have a new boyfriend if it vibrated. However, this was during the non-canon tweets.

In the actual series, Val seems to rely on Vox as moral support, being the only person who can calm down Valentino during his various fits of rage. Val is shown to have a monstrous temper unlike any other, butchering Velvette's staff and almost going to massacre and rape everyone at the Hazbin Hotel just because he was angry over Angel moving there rather than living at the Studio with him (this reaction likely stems from the fact that his contract with Angel states he can only control Angel while he's in the Studio itself, while outside it Angel can do as he pleases without consequences). His temper is shown to make him rather short-sighted and blind to the consequences of his actions since he was both risking the Vees' reputation as well as putting himself in danger of angering Charlie and Alastor, both of whom are stronger demons than him on their own. He demonstrates this flaw again during his first confrontation with Charlie in "Masquerade" where he shows his abusive treatment of Angel in full view of her and is only spared from her wrath by Angel acting as a human shield and forcing her to leave the Studio, and likely would've been brutalized or worse if Charlie had been given the chance to follow through on her threat.

Powers and Abilities[]

  • Strength: Valentino demonstrates a few instances of his brute strength such as when he tears up one of Velvette's models limb from limb, and when he effortlessly grabs and lifts Angel Dust off the ground and throws him across the room
  • Demonic Transformation: As a demon, Valentino can probably transform himself into a more powerful form and swipe back to his ordinary one.
  • Influence: As an Overlord, Valentino holds a superior social position than ordinary demons. As the owner of Porn Industries, he is the main pornographic distributor in Hell and one of the most influential Overlords, as well as being involved in drug deals as shown in dirty healings.
  • Black magic: As an Overlord, Valentino has achieved a particular magic that makes him an above-average demon in terms of power and that grants him several supernatural capabilities, such as manipulating smoke.
  • Smoke Manipulation: Valentino is shown to be able to move and model smoke, particularly pink smoke, despite is unknown if he is simply using the smoke produced by cigarettes or if he is capable of creating new ones.
  • Dominion over Pentagram City: As a powerful Overlord and a member of the Vees, Valentino thus has connections and control over vast areas of Pentagram City.

Trivia[]

  • Faustisse stated that Valentino may have died in the 1970s.
  • He has his own Instagram Account called @Moth_Pimp. However, his account was deleted and it's unknown why.
  • Valentino got his name after Vivienne Medrano's cat, who passed away in 2016.
  • Valentino states he has employed "every down on their luck loser" on the Vees' part of the Pride Ring of Hell.
  • As of the "Addict" music video, Valentino has become the most hated character in the series, due to him sexually abusing and raping Angel Dust to the point of giving him some form of PTSD.
    • Even his friend, rival and on-off partner Vox doesn't like him much and calls him a "100% rat". Vox has been shown to be abused by Valentino, as he's gotten his screen cracked for minor things. Although, this seems to have changed in the actual series, where he seems more annoyed by Val’s antics than anything else, with no evidence of Vox being abused. If anything, Vox seems to be the dominant partner in the relationship and possibly the only one that can curb Valentino’s otherwise uncontrollable temper.
    • Even Stolas from Helluva Boss, who makes creepy phone calls to Blitzo, disapproves of his actions. This is because while perverted, and unafraid to show it, Stolas still seems to have standards and while he vexes Blitzo, he never goes as far as to outright rape him.
    • In the show proper, Charlie herself comes to hate him when she sees his abusive treatment of Angel with her own eyes and would've attacked him outright if Angel hadn't put himself between them. Given how kind and empathetic Charlie usually is towards sinners regardless of their attitude, this is rather telling of how awful Valentino is even by Hell's standards.
    • To hammer in just how vile Valentino is compared to most of Hell, even Asmodeus, the literal embodiment of Lust, is vocal about hating when it is forced, this means that Valentino would very likely be deeply disliked by Asmodeus despite Valentino's active love of lustful activities, he can be seen as a dark mirror of Asmodeus similarly, being the traditionally wicked and depraved aspects of lust (while Asmodeus is much more neutral). For all his vices, Asmodeus has far more decency than Valentino does.
  • Valentino is most likely meant to be another foil to Alastor similar to Vox given that he’s another fellow Overlord of Hell and both own other Sinners (Angel Dust and Husk respectively), via soul contracts and are cruel to them whenever they anger them, the difference is that Alastor is mainly affable while Valentino is a full-on psychopath who takes advantage of his workers for his benefit and to satiate his lust.
  • Valentino greatly resembles one of the forms taken by the sin of lust, Asmodeus. Fitting due to him owning the porn studios of Hell.
    • However, Asmodeus is the exact opposite of Valentino, who the former is really against forced lust and thinks it needs to be done with consent, something of which Valentino does not do.
