Dracula and his legendary family are skipping the big screen for television with an animated series. Following the success of four Hotel Transylvania feature films, the franchise is heading to Netflix for a new spinoff series called Motel Transylvania.
The streaming service recently revealed its upcoming animated lineup, surprising fans with the announcement of this exciting new venture.
Scheduled for release in 2025, Motel Transylvania is set after the events of the four films and will focus on the father-daughter duo, Dracula and Mavis.
The series sees them leaving their Transylvanian roots behind to open a brand new resort in the sunny California desert, catering to both monsters and humans alike.
Netflix also shared a first look image from Motel Transylvania, teasing the new setting and the theme of vampires in the sunshine. The series promises a mix of humor and adventure as the characters maneuver the challenges of running a motel that welcomes both monsters and humans.
While Netflix’s announcement didn’t mention the cast, fans are eager to learn whether any actors from the original movies will return.
Adam Sandler voiced Dracula in the first three Hotel Transylvania films but did not return for the fourth, where Brian Hull took over. Selena Gomez, who voiced Mavis throughout the series, also brings a unique charm to her role.
Motel Transylvania is expected to bring a fresh take on the beloved franchise, combining its signature humor with new adventures in a sunny California setting.
