Heaven

"Welcome to Heaven, where the virtuous reside 24/7. People are happy that they died! 'Cause here we got no worries, got no burglaries, no strife. It's the perfect afterlife!"

- St. Peter, about Heaven

Heaven is a location in Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss. It made its debut as a cameo in the Hazbin Hotel pilot, and was shown in greater detail in the Helluva Boss episode "C.H.E.R.U.B". It made its official debut in the Hazbin Hotel episode "Welcome to Heaven".

Description
Heaven is the ethereal realm of Angels. It is where souls go after their departure from life. But, unlike its infernal counterpart, Hell, Heaven is purportedly for the souls who are "good" and "redeemed", although the origin of Heaven and its native inhabitants has yet to be revealed.

The landscape is radically different from Hell and has an entirely different attitude. Existing above Hell itself, Heaven can be seen in the Pride Ring's red sky next to the satanic star moon. At a distance, it appears to be a white orb with several rings around it and surrounded by wing-like clouds. At the surface, its atmosphere features clear skies filled with brilliant rays of light, while its terrain appears to be extensive fields of cloud.

Sealed by a giant golden gate, Heaven is a blistering paradise for those who were pure of good, allowing the souls to enjoy the luxury of everything opposite of Hell, and their forms were pure, guiding those who've been blessed with following the best interest of Heaven. However, deep inside, Heaven is a dystopia where citizens are completely oblivious to the Exorcists descending to Hell annually and reap various demons in an event known as the Extermination in order to curb Hell's overpopulation problem. Even when Adam and Lute outright inadvertently exposes the truth of the Extermination, many angels would try to deny their roles and turn a blind eye towards the event.

Aside from their roles in the afterlife, Heaven and Hell have a very hostile relationship in their roles with each other. Hell was created after Lucifer Morningstar and Lilith brought free will to humanity and evil entered Earth. After Lilith arrived in Hell, she thrived and allowed her to increase the powers of the Demons as more human souls arrive after committing sin. With Hell's power increasing, Sera, the Head Seraphim of Heaven, allowed the Extermination to happen under Adam's so that Hell cannot rise up against them. In turn, the denizens of Hell hold strong animosity toward Heaven and its inhabitants for the yearly Extermination, with some planning countermeasures and defenses against the attack of Exorcists. Before "Welcome to Heaven," the Extermination was kept secret from everyone in Heaven except Sera and the Exorcists in order to preserve the positive reputation of Heaven.

Trivia

 * Heaven is based on the divine location of the same name in Abrahamic religion, in which it and the angels were often depicted as creations of God, however, God has not been depicted or discussed at length in the franchise.
 * Before the series premiered, Vivziepop stated information regarding Heaven was kept under wraps for later in the series, including details on whether it faces an overpopulation crisis akin to that of Hell. However, she mentioned that Heaven is "very interesting", and that she's excited to get to it later in the show. Dave Capdevielle also stated that there was something "fun" planned for Heaven that they did not want to spoil.
 * Vivziepop then stated that she would like to introduce Heaven as a setting as soon as the second episode, though this appearance would likely be minuscule in comparison to later episodes. In the main series, however, Heaven wasn't introduced until sixth episode, "Welcome to Heaven".
 * As of a livestream on August 13, 2019, Vivziepop had already planned on how Heaven would look alongside how its hierarchy would work.
 * Heaven has a handful of similarities that parallel that of Hell's. Noteworthy parallels include:
 * C.H.E.R.U.B being an organization that offers the opposing service of I.M.P.
 * Species such as Cherubs having their own part of Heaven, such as Cherub Towne.
 * Angels have their own hierarchy, parallel to Demons operating by a power hierarchy.
 * In the episode "Overture", Adam mentions a sexual encounter with a "Virtue chick". In Christian theology, Virtues are the fifth highest tier of angels listed in the hierarchy of angels. The term "Virtue" is also often the angelic counterpart of the Seven Deadly Sins, each one being a direct inverse of the respective sin. It is unknown which use of "Virtue" Adam was referring to.
 * As seen in the Helluva Boss episode "C.H.E.R.U.B", Heaven has at least one TV station that can be viewed in Hell.
 * According to Faustisse, demons have alternate forms if ever they went to Heaven. Sir Pentious is the first example, since he is the first demon to be redeemed and sent to Heaven.
 * Hinted by Adam in "The Show Must Go On", Heaven's official currency is "Heaven Bucks".
