ORLANDO, Fla. – SeaWorld Orlando is on a Halloween hot streak — and its latest move has monsters checking in.
The theme park announced that characters from Sony Pictures Animation’s “Hotel Transylvania” will make their debut at its annual Halloween Spooktacular, running on select dates Aug. 29 through Nov. 1.

The park teased that more announcements were coming after it unveiled the first-ever “I Know What You Did Last Summer” haunted house earlier this month.
According to a news release, Drac and Mavis have transformed SeaWorld’s SeaFire Inn into the Monster Dread & Breakfast, a separately ticketed character dining experience complete with a breakfast buffet, meet-and-greets, dancing and immersive Hotel Transylvania-themed décor. A Hotel Transylvania Dance Party hosted by Mavis and Johnny rounds out the monster fun.
