LOS ANGELES, May 30 (Reuters) - Netflix ( NFLX ) said on

Thursday it has ordered the adult animated series "The

Undervale," with "Rick and Morty" veterans Matt Roller and Dan

Harmon set to lead the project.

Roller is the creator and showrunner, while Harmon is

serving as one of the executive producers.

The show follows a single mother of two who struggles to run

a haunted hotel with the help of her estranged brother, now one

of the ghosts, Netflix ( NFLX ) said.

"I'm thrilled to be working with Netflix ( NFLX ) and an amazingly

talented cast and crew to bring to life the stories of the dead,

the evil, and the struggling hospitality workers at the

Undervale Hotel," Roller said in the Netflix ( NFLX ) statement.

"Krapopolis" producer Steve Levy will also be working on the

show serving as executive producer alongside "American Dad!"

writer Chris McKenna. Erica Hayes, who also worked on "Rick and

Morty" will be supervising director.

"The Undervale is wildly inventive and I'm very grateful to

Matt, Chris, Dan and their team for bringing their talents to

Netflix ( NFLX )," said Billy Wee, Netflix's ( NFLX ) director of adult animation.

This is the latest collaboration between Roller, Harmon and

Levy, as they all worked together on the animated comedy series

"Krapopolis" from Fox, Cartoon Network's "Rick and Morty," and

the live-action NBC comedy series "Community."
