Plot

Dracula, an owner of Hotel Transylvania, a five-star resort for the world's monsters, invites some of the most famous monsters to celebrate his daughter Mavis' 118th birthday. Unexpectedly visited by Jonathan, an ordinary young traveller, Dracula must protect his daughter from falling in love with him before it's too late.[4]

Cast

Development

Hotel Transylvania has been in development since 2006, when Anthony Stacchi and David Feiss were set to direct the film.[8] In 2008, Jill Culton took over the directing position,[9] and around 2010, Chris Jenkins.[10] The last one currently attached to direct the feature is Genndy Tartakovsky.[1][5]

In November 2011, it was announced that Miley Cyrus would voice Mavis, Dracula's teenage daughter,[3] but in February 2012, Adam Sandler confirmed that Cyrus left the movie to focus on her music career, so Selena Gomez took her place.[11]
