Just a few weeks ago, we got our first official look of Sony Animation’s upcoming featre film, Hotel Transylvania. Now it seems the floodgates have been opened as today we get our first official trailer for the film.
The first lines of the trailer say, “We know their stories. We fear their names,” followed by names such as “Dracula”, “Frankenstein” and “The Mummy.” It seems to be the trend in animation to take popular mythical characters and make them your own (DreamWork Animation’s Rise of the Guardians, anyone?).
We’ll see if Sony can put their own memorable spin on these characters. So far, the trailer makes it look pretty decent. Watch below and let us know your thoughts in the comments!
