A fifth “Hotel Transylvania” film, titled “The Haunting of Hotel Transylvania”, is coming to theaters on Oct. 8.
Sony Pictures is set to distribute the film in North America, while Amazon MGM Studios will oversee international distribution. Jennifer Kluska and Alan Hawkins are on board to direct the fifth film with Lawrence Jonas producing, and Genndy Tartakovsky and Michelle Murdocca serving as executive producers.
“From the beginning, ‘Hotel Transylvania’ has invited audiences into a world where monsters feel like family,” said Kristine Belson and Damien de Froberville, Presidents of Sony Pictures Animation. “These films have been a cornerstone of Sony Animation’s storytelling identity, blending a unique visual style with heartfelt, character-driven comedy. With this next installment, we’re honoring that legacy of heart and humor while delivering the unexpected surprises audiences love. We’re delighted to partner with Amazon MGM Studios to bring the Drac Pack back to theatres for families around the world.”
In this latest instalment, Dracula has happily settled into retirement while his daughter, Mavis, takes the reins of the legendary monster hotel. But when a series of spooky and unexplained happenings sends chills through the resort, the Drac Pack embarks on its most spellbinding adventure yet: uncovering the mystery behind “The Haunting of Hotel Transylvania.”
