Adam Sandler's Hotel Transylvania movies are his most successful at the box office, with the third installment earning $527 million worldwide. The success of the franchise is due to its appeal to all ages, with quirky characters that resonate with audiences. Sandler would need to star in another family-friendly movie to have a chance at surpassing the record-breaking earnings of Hotel Transylvania, but this seems unlikely with his upcoming projects on Netflix.

Adam Sandler is best known for roles in various comedies, but his Hotel Transylvania movies hold a massive career record that another film might never break. Since his feature film debut in 1989, Sandler has appeared in dozens of movies, with many of his comedic highlights released in the mid-90s and early 2000s. While Sandler may often be connected to his immaturely funny roles in Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, Mr. Deeds, and Grown Ups, the actor has done...

Hotel Transylvania, a beloved animated film series, has been a hit with audiences around the globe. Starting with the adventures of Dracula running a hotel for his monster buddies and moving to the family antics of Drac, Mavis, and their ensemble, here’s how you can immerse yourself in their tales from start to finish.

The “Hotel Transylvania” franchise, blending humor with classic monster motifs, welcomes fans to a world where the infamous Count Dracula isn’t a fearsome bloodsucker but a doting father and a hotelier. It’s a place where the ghouls and monsters you were told about as bedtime stories vacation and revel. Over the course of four films, we’ve seen these iconic monsters navigate family, love, prejudice, and even summer vacations.

Now that the franchise has ended with its final chapter, the perfect time has come to binge-watch the Hotel Transylvania movies in order. The Hotel Transylvania movies revolve around a spooky hotel run by Dracula, visited by fellow horror icons including the Mummy, the Wolf Man, and Frankenstein’s Monster. From the original movie to Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation, the Hotel Transylvania franchise wrings laughs out of the juxtaposition of the most terrifying monsters in movie history enjoying the simple pleasures of a vacation. Then, Hotel Transylvania: Transformania – advertised as the final film in the saga – wraps up the overarching story with a body-swap premise.

The first three Hotel Transylvania movies star Adam Sandler as the voice of Count Dracula, but the fourth Hotel Transylvania recast the Drac role, with Brian Hull taking over. The franchise also features the voices of Kevin James as Frankenstein’s Monster, David Spade as the Invisible Man,...

Sony Pictures announced on Tuesday that it will release a fourth “Hotel Transylvania” film on Dec. 22, 2021.

Created by Todd Durham and directed by “Samurai Jack” creator Genndy Tartakovsky, the “Hotel Transylvania” series has been Sony Animation’s most lucrative franchise with $1.3 billion grossed worldwide. After the first two films were slated for September release in 2012 and 2015, “Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation” was released in the middle of summer last year and grossed a record $528 million worldwide, including $167.5 million domestically.

Now Sony is taking “Hotel Transylvania” into the holiday season, where the studio has found success recently with hits like “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle” and the Oscar-winning “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.”

While the December 2021 slate has yet to be fully formed, “HT4” is currently set to run against the third installment of James Cameron’s long-gestating “Avatar” series, along with Universal’s adaptation of the hit “Wizard of Oz” musical “Wicked.

If there’s one thing the Hotel Transylvania franchise has taught viewers, it’s that Count Dracula and his daughter Mavis have the same drama as everyone else. In the third installment, Hotel Transylvania 3: Family Vacation, a trip on the luxury Monster Cruise Ship goes awry when Dracula starts to fall for the ship’s captain — who turns out to be the great-granddaughter of his ancient archenemy.

The domestic box office will be a battle between the Rock and a tropical place.

New entries “Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation” and Dwayne Johnson’s “Skyscraper” will compete with the second weekend of “Ant-Man and the Wasp” as all three head for $30 million-plus outings. The two box office newcomers hope to offer audiences something different during a popcorn season dominated by Spandexed heroes and raging dinosaurs, but this weekend’s results look to be a cliffhanger.

“Hotel Transylvania 3” looks to check in with around $38 million, though it could make as much as $48 million when it opens in 4,200 locations. The latter part of that range would be in line with the debut of its predecessors. “Hotel Transylvania” bowed in 2012 with $42 million, while its 2015 follow-up got a slight headstart with $48 million. The two animated features pocketed $358 million and $473 million worldwide, respectively. Each film in the franchise has had an $80 million price tag.
