We recently got our first look at the characters from the animated film Hotel Transylvania by way of a few (very tiny) images, but today we’ve got some photos that give us a much better look at the characters. The film centers on Dracula (voiced by Adam Sandler) trying to throw a party for his daughter Mavis’ 118th birthday, but his plans go haywire when a human (Andy Samberg) comes to the hotel and develops a crush on Mavis. The hotel has apparently been human-free since 1898, so the appearance of Samberg’s character is quite disturbing (monsters aren’t big fans of the human race). Dracula disguises the human as a monster named “Johnnystein” and tries to sneak him out of the hotel undetected. I presume the hormones get the best of young Johnnystein and he attempts to get with Dracula’s severely mature daughter.The monsters look like a fun-loving gang in these imagines, and I imagine kids will be big fans of the film. The voice cast also includes Selena Gomez (Mavis), David Spade (Griffin the Invisible Man), Steve Buscemi (Wayne the Werewolf), Kevin James (Frankenstein), Molly Shannon (Wanda the Werewolf) and Cee Lo Green (Murray the Mummy). Hit the jump to check out the images. Hotel Transylvania opens September 28th.Here’s the official synopsis for Hotel Transylvania:

Welcome to the Hotel Transylvania, Dracula’s (Adam Sandler) lavish five-stake resort, where monsters and their families can live it up, free to be the monsters they are without humans to bother them.  On one special weekend, Dracula has invited some of the world’s most famous monsters – Frankenstein and his bride, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, a family of werewolves, and more – to celebrate his daughter Mavis’s 118th birthday.  For Drac, catering to all of these legendary monsters is no problem – but his world could come crashing down when one ordinary guy stumbles on the hotel and takes a shine to Mavis.
