“Dante Crowe,” the sixth episode of Netflix’s Haunted Hotel Season 2, introduces a gunslinging ghost hunter who pulls the Undervale family into a battle involving ominous signs of a possible apocalypse. The episode also sends Abaddon toward his own wild instincts, creating a mix of supernatural action and the show’s trademark character comedy.
Some fan chatter has described “Dante Crowe” as a 9.4/10 episode on IMDb. However, that exact score could not be confirmed on IMDb’s public ratings pages at the time of writing. IMDb’s current series page shows a 7.7/10 overall rating, while its season-two episode rating row is not displaying episode scores in the page data checked. The 9.4 figure should therefore be treated as unverified—not as an official, settled rating.
What happens in “Dante Crowe”?
The official episode synopsis describes Dante as a gunslinging ghost hunter who checks into the hotel and drags the family into a fight against world-ending omens. Meanwhile, Abaddon answers the call of the wild. The premise takes the show beyond its usual haunted-hotel mishaps and leans into supernatural-action tropes—complete with a mysterious hunter, ominous signs and a larger threat.
Viewers on the episode’s public Reddit discussion thread quickly noticed Dante’s familiar genre DNA. Some compared him to characters from Supernatural and Constantine, while others joked that his car and gear felt like a mash-up of paranormal-action heroes. Several commenters also debated whether Dante was intentionally written as a parody of the tough, world-weary supernatural investigator.
Fans are split on Dante’s arrival
The episode discussion is lively rather than unanimous. Some commenters enjoyed the references and the character’s exaggerated paranormal-investigator persona; others felt Dante was trying too hard or found him less interesting than the show’s regular cast. That split is useful context: online chatter shows a range of reactions, not a single consensus.
Other comments focus on the episode’s supporting moments, including Esther’s role in the fight and Abaddon’s unusual behavior. These are viewer interpretations of the episode and should not be mistaken for official statements from Netflix or the show’s creators. Still, the thread gives a useful snapshot of how fans are responding to the new character and the episode’s genre references.
What IMDb actually confirms
IMDb’s public title page currently lists Haunted Hotel at 7.7/10 overall. That is the series-level score, not the rating for “Dante Crowe.” The season-two episode row on the ratings page checked for this report does not display a confirmed numerical score for the episode. Without a visible episode-specific rating and vote count, it would be misleading to report 9.4/10 as verified.
Episode scores can change as new viewers vote, and early scores can reflect a small number of ratings. The most useful way to report a high episode score is to link directly to the relevant IMDb episode page and include its vote count and the date checked. Until that information is available, the rating claim should remain clearly labelled unconfirmed.
The cast behind the animated chaos
Haunted Hotel was created by Matt Roller. Its principal voice cast includes Will Forte as Nathan, Eliza Coupe as Katherine, Skyler Gisondo as Ben, Natalie Palamides as Esther and Jimmi Simpson as Abaddon. The show uses a supernatural setting for stories about family, grief, friendship and the daily work of keeping a hotel running.
Dante’s episode adds a new action-comedy flavour to that mix, but the public credits checked for this article did not establish a specific performer for Dante Crowe. Rather than guessing which actor voices him, this report sticks to the confirmed principal cast and the episode details listed by Netflix and episode guides.
