Exclusive: Watch The Brand New 'Hotel Transylvania' Short, 'Monster Pets'

Hotel Transylvania is a lovely place to relax and get away from the cares of the world, as Drac knows so well. Each monster who comes to stay has their own unique needs, however, and that includes all the monster pets, notably the giant-sized puppy Tinkles. Who can play with the happy young animal and his giant red ball?

In the monstrously charming short film Monster Pets, Drac is too busy juggling his duties at the hotel, so he is determined to find a monster pet companion for his huge furry friend. But Drac's plans to keep his monster puppy entertained goes awry when Tinkles chooses an unlikely companion. 

The short animated comedy also announces the title of the next Hotel Transylvania feature film: Hotel Transylvania: Transformania, coming to theaters on July 23. Sign up for a Fan Alert to find out when tickets go on sale near you.

"What would it be like if the Drac Pack all owned pets? We couldn't be more excited to jump back into the world of Hotel Transylvania, and explore all the fun and lovable frustrations of pets through a monster lens,” said Monster Pets directors Jennifer Kluska and Derek Drymon. “What happens when your golden retriever is 5 stories tall? Or your chihuahua breathes fire? Being able to introduce an all-new group of characters in Monster Pets who are just as funny and weird as the Drac Pack was an absolute blast. We hope audiences enjoy the short, and look forward to seeing the monster pets make an appearance in the upcoming Hotel Transylvania: Transformania!”

"This short has been a labor of love from the teams at Sony Pictures Animation and Sony Pictures Imageworks, and we're pleased that we can bring heartfelt laughter to families around the world in this time,” added Christian Roedel, Monster Pets producer. “The Hotel Transylvania franchise is all about family, and it has been an honor to work alongside our newest members Jennifer and Derek, the amazing directing duo who will take the reins for this exciting new chapter."

Don’t miss Hotel Transylvania: Transformania, coming to theaters July 23. All three existing films are now available to rent or buy on FandangoNOW and Vudu. They're all monstrously good!
