Mel Brooks also starred in a 1995 Dracula movie.

Directed by Genndy Tartakovsky, Hotel Transylvania 2 is the new comedy movie for fans of funny monsters.

Everything seems to be changing for the better at Dracula’s Hotel Transylvania. The strict monster-only policy has finally relaxed, opening the hotel to human guests. But Drac (voiced by Adam Sandler) is worried that his adorable half-human, half-vampire grandson, Dennis (Asher Blinkoff), isn’t showing signs of being a vampire. So while mom Mavis (Selena Gomez) is busy visiting her human in-laws with dad Johnny (Andy Samberg), Drac comes up with a plan. With his friends Frankenstein, Murray the mummy, Wayne the werewolf and invisible Griffin, he puts Dennis through a “monster-in-training” boot camp.

Unfortunately Drac’s grumpy and very traditional dad, Vlad (Mel Brooks), is about to pay a family visit to the hotel. And when Vlad finds out that his great-grandson is not 100 percent vampire, and that humans are now welcome at Hotel Transylvania, things start to get crazy.

Enjoy some monster laughs when Hotel Transylvania 2 opens on October 1.
