October is known for Halloween, with vampires, ghosts, mummies and zombies. The sequel to Hotel Transylvania showed just the right amount of spooks. Saying this, Hotel Transylvania 2 came out just in time.
Dracula (played by Adam Sandler), wants his grandson, Dennis (played by Asher Blinkoff) to be a monster just like his whole family. Dennis is half-human and half-vampire but since he doesn’t have fangs, Dracula doesn’t believe he’s a real monster. Mavis (played by Selena Gomez) is Dracula’s daughter and the mother of Dennis. Mavis doesn’t care if Dennis is a monster, human, or both. She just cares that he’s happy.
