The person that Dracula was looking at turned around, and it was revealed to be nothing else but... a human. At that moment, Dracula pictures a vision in his head, that this very human, might be part of a mob.
"A human!", Dracula said, noticing the man right in front of him. "Who are you, and what are you doing here?". Dracula asked.
"Oh, I'm Jonathan.", Jonathan said, "But you can call me Johnny, if you want.". Dracula was shocked, "How did you get here?", he asked.
"Well,", Johnny explained, "I was up mountain climbing wuth my dudes, and they told me about this spooky forest.", he continued as a flashback plays. "And, who would like to go through a spooky forest, right?", he continued, as the flashbacks show him taking pictures during the hike.
"Then, I found these goofy-looking dudes that are on fire.", Johnny continued, "And I guess I kinda followed them up to this castle.". Drac was a bit cautious, "But of course, be smart.", he said.
He soon looks through Johnny's backpack. "No bonfires, no fireworks.", Dracula said, "How many are there of you!". "Oh, it's just me.", Johnny said, "I'm like a loner. And besides, you can meet so many people in the youth hostels.".
Johnny soon notices Drac's cape, "Hey, speaking of which,", Johnny said, "the cape thing is killing it, man.". Is there a costume party in here?", Johnny asked, and Dracula was thinking, "What have I done?", and said, "You shouldn't be here!", Drac said, as he made Johnny hover.
A voice soon rang out, "Mr Dracula, one of your piranhas in the lake is very rude, and he ate my sister-in-law.". As Drac starts to hover Johnny the other way, another voice said, "Mr Dracula, we asked for a room with the view of the pool!".
In order to avoid this human detection, Dracula stuffs Johnny into his cape. Soon, a couple of blue heads appeared, and each one said, "The room's fine, but we wanted a massage. Yes, Swedish. Shiatsu, Aromatherapy, Lower back. Do you have a hot stone. WE NEED A MASSAGE!".
"We'll get to it, Mr Hydraberg!", Dracula said. "I hope so. I doubt it. See that you do. That's Ms Hydraberg!", Hydraberg shouted.
Lincoln and Lucy were now exiting Mavis' room with their disguises on. Lincoln was a Frankenstein with greenish makeup, while Lucy was a vampire with fake fangs and one of Dracula's old capes.
"Lincoln,", Lucy said, looking at her brother, "These disguises better work!". "Of course they'll work.", Lincoln said, "I am the man with the plan, after all.".
"Now, Lucy, I want you to just act scary.", Lincoln said, but Lucy interrupted, "Being scary is what I'm good at.". Soon Mavis walks them down the hall, unaware that Drac will have the same situation.
Drac was now bringing Johnny to a storage closet, "Hey, dude, seriously. What's up? Dude, it's kinda funky to breathe in here.", Johnny said.
Johnny soon looks at the room, he said, "Wow! This room is small for a castle.". "No bed,", he continued, "but check out these awesome dustpans you have.".
"Quiet, you fool!", Dracula said, going through Johnny's belongings, "What weapons are you keeping in this container? Your pitchforks?". He soon sniffed something from the backpack. "Ohh, I can't breathe!", Dracula said, and Johnny just said, "It's just fluff and fold.".
Soon, Dracula pulled out Johnny's phone. "What is this?", he asked, "A torture device? A secret mind controller!? You won't read my thoughts! I won't let it.". "Dude, its just music!", Johnny said, as he puts headphones on Drac and a song plays.
"It's taking my soul!", Dracula said, however Johnny said, "What? it's a cool jam. Don't be a grandpa!". Dracula interrupted, "You need to go! No human has ever entered this castle, and if someone should see you, the safety of the hotel, the sanctuary, no one would come here again!".
Johnny however, thought that Dracula's voice was fake, which even annoyed the vampire. "And Mavis,", Dracula continued, "if she sees you, she would know that I lied!". "Who's Mavis.", Johnny asked, "Is this her room? If it is, I'm great with roommates, most of the time.".
While Johnny was talking about one time having a roommate, Dracula said, "I can't kill him. It would send monsters back hundreds of years.".
"Whoa, look at these costumes!", Johnny soon said, which gave Dracula an idea, but while he was touching him up, Mavis, Lincoln known as Lincoln-stein, and Lucy known as Dracu-lucy, are in the main lobby.
"Look at me!", Lincoln said, "I'm a Franken-homie!". "Shh,", Lucy said, "You said you weren't going to act up.". "But look at this place!", Lincoln said, "It's so awesome.", however Lucy said, "This place is like heaven for me.".
However, Lincoln doesn't know that the monsters are real, and thought they were all costumes.
"Mavis told us that they are not costumes.", Lucy reminded her brother, "They're real monsters.". When Lincoln heard that, he wasn't so sure about this. "I'm not sure about this.", Lincoln said, and Lucy bravely said, "Let's just give this a shot. I mean, what can possibly go wrong?".
"Well, maybe what that guy's doing.", Lincoln said, pointing at Johnny about to put his hand through a skeleton's ribcage.
Johnny, who was also in a Frankenstein disguise, was walking to a skeleton. "Woah, check out that costume!", he said, "I'd just have to ask, how are you pulling this off?". "It looks so real, like if I can almost just reach my hand through.".
The skeleton, revealed to be female, screams at this sight and is slapped in the face. "What's going on around here?!", asked her angry husband, "What're think you're doing?!". Johnny was now nervous, "She's real?", he asked.
"Yeah, and I'll give you a real beating!", the skeleton husband with a rage, "Get your hands outta my wife!". The skeleton soon slapped Johnny so hard, that he went flying into the giant foot of Bigfoot.
"Well, that's what he got.", Lincoln said, and soon asked Lucy, "Hey, Luce, on a scale of 1 to 10, how scared is that guy?". "Maybe a 4?", Lucy said, and then Johnny looks around and noticed every single monster is real.
Because of this new fear, Johnny runs to the door. "Oh, looks like he's running, and oh, he step on a brain, folks!", Lincoln said, mimicking a sports announcer. "Yep, that's a 3 out of 10 on the fear factor!", Lucy said.
"Now there's a bunch of flying witches up ahead!", Lincoln said, and Lucy gave the scare rating a 6 out of 10. "He's running in the opposite direction! Ooh, he got repelled and bounced back by that big blob!", Lincoln said, and Lucy said, "Too boring, 1 out of 10.".
"There's a fly up ahead!", Lincoln said, and that's when Lucy gave the scare factor a 2 out of 10. Soon, a giant hairy tarantula steps over Johnny. "If Leni was here, she'd be scared stiff.", Lincoln said, and Lucy said, "Yep, that's an 8 out of 10, if I saw it!".
Eventually, Johnny was flying towards Mavis, and when they saw each other, Lincoln and Lucy noticed a pink glow in their eyes. "Did you see that?", Lincoln said, "There was a pink glow.".
"I think that might be some love at first sight thing or something.", Lucy whispered, but Lincoln wasn't to sure. Dracula soon asked her daughter if she's okay, and she said she's fine, but what she experienced was weird.
"Who's he?", Mavis said, and Dracula said that it's a nobody, and she asked, "Seriously, Dad?". "Dad?", Johnny asked, to which he soon realized that Mavis was really the daughter of Dracula.
Johnny soon screams as Dracula takes him away, leaving Mavis suspicious. "What was that about?", Lincoln asked, to which Mavis replied, "I don't know. One minute I was standing here. and then the next thing I know...". "There's a pink glow in your eyes.", Lincoln said, and Lucy said, "You think that might be the 'zing', that your mom was talking about?".
"I'm not sure.", Mavis said, however, Lincoln soon points out that there is something odd about the other Frankenstein, to which Lucy said, "You guys are overreacting.".
Dracula soon takes Johnny to his room, to which the paranoid human said, "Please don't kill me! I'm so young! I have so many places that I wanna see! I got tickets to 6 Dave Matthews band concerts!".
"I'M GETTING OUT OF HERE!!!", he soon screamed, and after he opened a door to a celler, there was a huge roar. "Shut up, already! It's hard for me to think with all that noise!". "Sorry, Glen.", Drac said, "Go back to sleep!".
"Wait, you're not going to suck my blood?", Johnny said, to which Dracula said that human blood is so fatty, and prefers a blood substitute. "So wow, you're, like, the real Count Dracula. Like 'I am Dracula, Bleh bleh bleh.'.
Dracula, offended by Johnny's use of words said, "I never said that in my entire life! Where'd you even get in from?". "All that aside,", Johnny said, "What is this place exactly?".
"What is this place?!", Dracula said, as he opened a window. "This place,", he said dramatically, "It is a place that I built for all the monsters who are lurking in the shadows, hiding from the persecution of human kind. A place where they and their families can be free together. A place void of torches, pitchforks and angry mobs. A place of peace, relaxation, and tranquility!".
"So, it's like a hotel for monsters?", Johnny asked, and Dracula somehow realized what Johnny meant, by saying, "Yes, a hotel for monsters. You can say it like that.". "Now hop on my back!", he soon said, "We're leaving.", and transform into a bat.
"Oh, you're a bat now.", Johnny said, "I always wanted to fly. What's it like?". But before Dracula can say anything else, he grabbed Johnny by the hair, and is about to fly outside.
"Wait, I wanna stay.", Johnny said, and even asked a bunch of questions like, "Can Frankenstein sign my costume, and can I meet the invisible man, oh, and if I place my hand in his mouth, would it disappear?".
Suddenly, Mavis, Lincoln, and Lucy entered Dracula's room, and noticed him flying outside with Johnny. "Hi.", she said, and Dracula soon notices her, "Oh, Mavey, my sweet little blood orange. What are you doing here?".
"Our friend right here was just about to leave.", Dracula said, with Johnny saying that he's flying out. "This guy is kinda acting weird.", Lincoln said, "Maybe we should go home.". "But, that's the legendary Dracula.", Lucy said, "I've always wanted to see him in person.".
"Oh, somethings on your face, hold on.", Dracula said, while Mavis did the same thing to her companions. "Listen, you better play along, if you wanna see that backpack again. Understand?!", Dracula asked to which Johnny nodded his head yes.
"Alright, I need you act really nice to my father, but not in a human fashion, okay?", Mavis told Lucy and Lincoln. "Alright.", Lucy said all excited, but Lincoln was a bit worrisome. "Uh, who exactly is they?", asked Dracula.
"Well you see...", Lincoln said nervously, "My name is Lincoln-stein, and this is my adopted sister Dracu-Lucy.". "Yeah, we are the adopted siblings of the Michigan dogman, and he asked Mavis right here to babysit us.", Lucy said.
"Yeah. like they said.", Mavis said, "Plus, the little vampire right here is a huge fan of you.". "Oh really?", Dracula said, "Well, pleasure to meet you, little vampire.". "And who's that guy?", Mavis soon asked.
"Well, you see,", Dracula said, thinking of a lie, "I known it's your birthday, honey bat. And I decided to get you the best party planner I could think of.". "So what you're saying is, that you needed help to make this party?", Lucy asked.
"Exactly,", Dracula said. "Plus, he's almost your age.", Dracula fibbed, and then Lincoln goes up to Johnny said, "She may visually be the same age, but it's not, trust me.". "So how old are you?", Johnny asked, to which Mavis said, "118.".
"Told you.", Lincoln said, as Dracula jabbed his elbow into Johnny's side, trying to make him say, "I'm 121.". "Really?", asked Mavis, to which Dracula said, "Yes, everything is normal. I'm throwing the party, and he's helping.".
Just then, a suit of armor came and said that there was an emergency in the hotel, however Dracula said to ignore it as he and Johnny somehow exited the room, even when Mavis said, "We can hang out, sometime!".
Now, Dracula was leading Johnny through the various caverns and hallways of the hotel. And as they do so, Johnny asked Drac a lot of questions.
"Is it true that all vampires are allergic to garlic?", Johnny said, "Yes, I can't have it. It makes my throat swell.". "What about the wooden stake?", Johnny asked again, to which Dracula responded, "Yes.".
Some of the doors that Drac and Johnny went through had some complications, like two insects having a honeymoon, and the skeleton taking a shower. To which, Dracula gets slapped by a loofah.
"This place is amazing.", Johnny said, and Drac told him to be silent, however when he was about to go through another door, Frank interrupted him. "Hey buddy, how's it going?", Frank asked.
After Drac told Johnny not to move, he asked what the problem is. "We wanted to practice our big number for Mavis' party.", Wayne said, "But these losers won't get off the bandstand!". "Guys, put Zombie Beethoven, Bach, and Mozart down.", Drac said.
"We just wanted to play something, like old times.", Wayne said, "We'd even thought if you can come and sing with us.". "Guys,", Dracula said, "You know I haven't sung out in public ever since Martha.". "Yeah,", Frank interrupted, "But we just thought how much, you know, Mavis would like it.".
"I SAID NO!", Dracula screamed, to which he soon asked everyone to make up for the zombies.
Meanwhile, Johnny was waiting outside when Mavis appeared. "Hey, I thought you said you'd be planning.", she said, to which Lincoln and Lucy said, "Yeah!".
"Well, I never caught your name.", Johnny said, to which Mavis tells him her name. "Mavis. That's a pretty nice nice,", Johnny said, as he also soon told his name, "Well, I'm obviously, Frankenstein.". "No you're not. Frankenstein is my uncle over there.", Mavis said.
Lincoln soon asked Mavis, "Frankenstein is your uncle?", and Mavis told Lincoln, "Well, he's my adoptive uncle. In fact, most of my dad's friends are my adoptive aunts and uncles.". "Okay, I'm not the Frankenstein, but I'm his cousin, Johnny-stein.", Johnny said. Just then, a spider came down from the ceiling, and spooked Johnny and Lincoln that they became visible to everyone.
"Who are they?", Frank angrily asked, as Lincoln and Johnny are shuttering in fear. Ignoring Lincoln, Dracula told Johnny, that he has to play as a monster in order to escape.
"He's your cousin, Johnny-stein.", Mavis said, "And these kids are Lincoln-stein, and Dracu-Lucy.". "I don't have a cousin.", Frank said, but Lincoln told Frank that he was his sixth cousin, three times removed, and that he told Frank that the original owner of his right arm, belonged to a guy who married a woman who was killed because he strangled a pig.
"That's real good.", Lucy said. "I hope so.", Lincoln said. "I have pig strangling blood in my arm?", Frank asked, "Cool!". "Put her there, cuz!", he soon said, as Lincoln said, "Maybe we should get going?", but Lucy interrupted, "Maybe, we can help with the party too.".
"Yeah,", Dracula explained, "These kids are also here to help Mr... Stein, in setting up the party.". "Wait a minute,", Murray interrupted, "You asked someone to help you?". "What a Captain Control Freak.", Wayne said, to which Drac said, "It's Count.".
"Anyway,", Drac continued, "I thought of having a Mavis contemporary, while she is also babysitting the two little monster kids.". Johnny also commented, "He also needs a fresher perspective.", to which Dracula glares at him.
"Okay Johnny,", Wayne said, "Mr Tight Coffin wanted those powdered lame-os over there to play music for the party.". "And,", Frank said, "we thought if we can liven things up.". "You guys can play?", Lucy said, "Show us.".
Soon, Frank, Wayne, Murray, and Griffin are playing a slow paced song. "Girl, I can't believe it's your big day.", Frank started to sing, and Murray added, "Seems like only yesterday, you've been eating mosquitos.". "But now you're eating frogs and mice!", Wayne and Griffin sang, with Frank adding, "Scarfing them down like Doritos!".
As the group tried to sing, "Tell me where did the time go, girl.", Johnny interrupted them. "Whoa whoa whoa, that's great but...", he said until the group interrupted, "But what?". "Well,", Lincoln said, "It's a bit slow paced.". "Yes, thank you Lincoln-stein.", Dracula said, but Lucy interrupted, "Maybe you guys should do it faster!".
"I like the way you think, Dracu-Lucy.", Johnny said, "Let me show you. Werewolf Man, give me a jam!". "Two, three, four!", Johnny said, as he soon sang, "Vampire girl with the fangy fang, Hair really cure with the bangy bangs, Little princess turning to a queen, Legal bat lady turning 118!".
"This is awesome!", Lucy said, "Luna should've been here to see this.". "Well she could,", Lincoln said, "But she's back in Royal Woods, which is where we need to go!". "But I think we could say for a few more days.", Lucy said, "Right, Mavis?". "Well...", Mavis tried to say, but then...
"CANNONBALL! Stage dive!", Johnny said, as he landed on the floor, with Mavis saying, "I'm so blown away right now.", and Lincoln saying the same thing, however Lucy was having some fun.".
"Well, I think my cuz is going to make this the best party ever!", Frank said, and some members of the audience even suggested a dance party. Drac however said, "We're not doing any of that! We need to stay on schedule!".
With all that out of the way, Johnny and his new friends, Lincoln-stein and Dracu-Lucy decided to go have some fun in the hotel.
