For me, this one has everything. Hotel Del Luna is the perfect, spooky, fall show. First of all, I don’t know how you can take about this show without talking about the costuming and cinematography. It is just gorgeous to look at. The soundtrack is hauntingly beautiful, with plenty of familiar names, and even includes a surprise unreleased song by IU herself. The cast has a strong chemistry, not just with the romantic leads, but on all levels of relationships. The plot is a sweeping story of love and revenge that travels through centuries.
Hotel Del Luna is a hotel for the dead, who are unable to move on to the afterlife because of unfinished business here on earth. As new “guests” check in to the hotel, the hotel staff, who are also ghosts in limbo, try to help them take care of their issue so that, with the help of the Grim Reaper, they can send them on their way. The stories cover many motives and emotions. Hotel Del Luna is ultimately a place of bittersweet goodbyes, as problems resolve and death becomes final.
Should I Watch
As I already said, I feel like Hotel Del Luna has a bit of everything. It’s well produced and the stories are fun. It has just enough spooky ghostness to put us in the mood for fall. There is romance and revenge. There are crimes to be solved and adventures to be had. It does have its share of bittersweet moments, so I guess if you are the kind of person who absolutely needs everyone to live happily ever after, this might not be the one for you. But other than that, this one is well worth the time. As I said, I love it, so I’m giving it 10 ramen out of 10
