- "Oh, yeah. We go way back, ran in the same circles when we were alive. You know, this one used to frequent the club where I used to perform. He’s the only one I knew who could pound whiskey like a sailor then keep up with me on the dance floor!"
- ―Mimzy, to Charlie about her relationship with Alastor
Mimzy is a sinner demon and a singer who owns a club.[3] She is a minor character in Hazbin Hotel who made her cameo in the pilot and made her official debut in the main series in "Dad Beat Dad".
Appearance
Mimzy is a short and plump sinner demon with very pale-lilac skin, pink rosy cheeks, and platinum-blonde hair kept into a 1920s-style bob cut, with paler-colored streaks.
Her eyes have pie eye-cut cerise pupils, black sclera, silver-like colored eyelids, and dark magenta bushy eyelashes. Her mouth has black lips and sharp, pink-outlined pale yellow teeth inside. She also has a beak-shaped nose.
On the back of her right shoulder, she appears to have a cerise Mammon tattoo.
Mimzy wears 1920s-style clothing which consists of a maroon-pink flapper dress with pale yellow-and-black detailing, resembling film tape, along with most of the bottom part colored in a striped-mauve and the hem being tattered. Along with her dress, she also wears both maroon opera gloves and heels.
She accessorizes with a black pearl necklace with a cerise gem in the middle, and a black headband with a pair of feathers colored in two shade of maroon with yellow dots, held by a cerise oval-shaped gem.
Personality
Mimzy is a bratty, materialistic diva,[4] who appears to have many self-centered traits that the people around her react strongly to. She appears to conflict with other strong personalities.
As seen in "Dad Beat Dad", Mimzy is very thirsty for attention and self-centered, bursting into the hotel in the middle of Alastor and Lucifer's duet. According to Husk, Mimzy only comes around when she is need of something, which is proven true as she owed some loan sharks money, hiding in the hotel to let Alastor deal with them.
Mimzy also assumes that others will clean up her own messes. Aside from all her rude traits, she cares at least a little bit for her friends, even hugging Alastor and being friendly to the hotel staff.
She has been described as larger than life ambitious, and determined, as well as insecure, sad, depressed, and consumed by the need to be famous.[note 1]

History
Past
Nothing is really known about her human life, as we do know that she died sometime in the 1920s but we don’t have a clear age or decade of birth, but we do know that Alastor was good friends with her back in their human lives, she was really clumsy and could drink so much whiskey and still danced on the dance floor, we don’t have details of how she died however, but most of her skills carried on into her Afterlife. We also know that she befriended Alastor again and met Husk and Niffty at an unknown time, she mainly visits Alastor if she is in trouble as Husk states.

Relationships
Friends
Alastor
Alastor and Mimzy get along well due to knowing each other in their human lives, with Alastor a recurring patron at the bar Mimzy sang at. Alastor is highly tolerant of Mimzy and very close to her, going so far as sharing a hug with Mimzy despite his general distaste for touch. She says that, even though Alastor is mysterious creature who is evil on the outside overall, he becomes a "kitten" when you play jazz and pour some fingers of rye. However, Alastor does dislike Mimzy deliberately bringing danger just for him to clean up her mess, this is shown in Dad Beat Dad where he tells Mimzy to leave since she caused damage to the Hotel by getting into trouble just so he can clean it up and help her. As Husk says that this happens many times.
Hazbin Hotel staff
Husk
Due to Alastor having acquired Husk's soul in the past and their long "partnership" since then, Mimzy is familiar with Husk and has known him for a long time. As shown, despite their long acquittance, Husk dislikes Mimzy deeply, having stated to not be happy to see her when she showed up in the hotel. As shown, Husk is fully aware of Mimzy's selfish personality and how she only goes to Alastor when she needs something or needs him to clean up the messes she creates. With Husk implying that she had caused numerous problems in the past and dragged Alastor, and by extension Husk, into them to clean them up.
Niffty
Due to her long friendship with Alastor, Mimzy has also known Niffty for a long time, similar to Husk. But they rarely ever interact a lot in the main series with her only saying on how she’s doing and Niffty responds with her usual crazed nature of killing the bugs.
Enemies
Loan Sharks
At some point, she got involved with a bunch of loan sharks and borrowed $50,000 from them and stole a car and crashed it into a loan shark's girlfriend, eventually getting in trouble and making her go get Alastor for help.

Development
- According to Vivziepop, Mimzy is a flapper girl that she vaguely based on a chicken, which is why she gave her a tiny beaky nose.[5]
- During Mimzy's development, across Zoophobia and early drafts of Hazbin Hotel, she was "head over heels in love" with Alastor and early illustrations depicted the two in a romantic relationship.[6][7] This element of their dynamic has since been moved on from, with Alastor being re-written as uninterested in all forms of romance.
- Faustisse has the opinion that Mimzy's crush on Alastor is a "joke that will never die".[note 4]
- When asked about Mimzy's connection to Alastor for the current series, Vivziepop felt that Mimzy and Alastor had known each other when they were living, giving their familiarity as the reason for their good relationship in the hotel.[8] Furthermore, when asked about Alastor and Mimzy, Vivziepop stated the two of them would get along due to them having a similar timeframe that they existed in.[9] This element was carried through in "Dad Beat Dad".
- Vivziepop also described Alastor as finding Mimzy extremely charming, although he is the only one who apparently sees this in her, as she is "absolutely terrible" to everyone else and this causes them to dislike her.[10]

- In several of Vivziepop's development illustrations, it appears as though Mimzy and Niffty might have something of a friendship,[14] although it is unclear if their relationship is planned to become a feature of the show.
