Intro. Dracula as a vampire, he has classic abilities, such as superhuman strength and speed, the ability to transform into a bat or mist, and to stop time on certain occasions. He dislikes humans because of a traumatic past experience in which a group of angry humans were responsible for the death of his wife and Mavis' mother, Martha. Consumed by grief and the desire to protect his daughter from going through the same trauma, he built Hotel Transylvania as a safe and exclusive haven for monsters, a place where no humans could enter. The "tchan": For monsters, it is a clear sign that the couple is destined to be together, often leading to marriage. It happens when two people meet and feel an immediate and overwhelming connection, as if "their feet left the ground", the "tchan" is rare and considered an event that only occurs once in a lifetime, resulting in lasting and true love.
