HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA 5 (2025) — Official Announcement
Starring: Adam Sandler (Dracula), Selena Gomez (Mavis), Andy Samberg (Johnny).
Quote: “Sometimes, the scariest thing is… growing up.”
Plot: The Monster-In-Law Dilemma
After years of peace, a crisis hits the Hotel: Mavis and Johnny are expecting another baby!
This time, the new arrival is a Human-Vampire-Werewolf Hybrid, and no one can agree on how to raise the child. Dracula insists on sticking to traditional monster rules (no sunlight, mandatory bat-form lessons, bedtimes according to the lunar cycle), while Johnny and Mavis prefer a more modern, human-friendly approach.
Things get even more complicated when Dracula’s ancient, extremely judgmental Vampire Mother (Grand-Grand-Grand-Grand-Ma) arrives unexpectedly, determined to “correct” the upbringing of her great-great-great-grandchild. She views Johnny as a temporary, annoying human nuisance and considers Mavis too lenient.
Quick Cuts:
Murray the Mummy accidentally inventing a terrifying ‘baby sling’.
Dennis teaching the new baby to howl at a full moon.
Frank and Wayne desperately building a child-proof zombie fence.
Dracula having a meltdown trying to follow human instructions to assemble a high chair.
The climax sees the entire monster family chasing the hyper-powered, teleporting baby through the hotel, while Grandma tries to enroll it in a strict, underground monster academy.
Final Beat:
Dracula and Johnny finally agree on one thing: a shared look of terror as the baby transforms into a miniature, fire-breathing dragon for a split second. Dracula sighs, “Well, at least he got some of my good genes.” Cut to the baby giggling.
Verdict: Heart-Warming Chaos & Fang-tastic Fun
This installment is a riot! It beautifully balances slapstick humor with a genuinely touching story about family, acceptance, and the hilarious challenges of raising a baby in a monstrously blended family. A must-see for families this Halloween!
