When Emma is soon kidnapped by Count Dracula (Isaacs), the family must race around the world to find Baba Yaga and reverse the spell that will change them back to normal…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Despite it being a better fit for a Halloween release date instead of early March, Monster Family is a spooky, funny and highly entertaining family adventure for your little monsters to watch endlessly.
