Parents guide

At around 30 minutes into the movie two sub-characters are caught having intercourse. Nothing graphic is shown, but these two characters are shown on top of each other and kissing noises are heard. When Dracula interrupts them, he exclaims, "Sorry, I know you are on your honeymoon. Go back to doing what you were doing."

Johnny asks Dracula if it is true that a wooden stake to the heart would kill a vampire, and he responds "Well, sure. I mean, who wouldn't that kill?"

Dracula decides not to kill Johnny because "it would set monsters back hundreds of years."

Wayne the werewolf quickly eats several sheep blocking the path of the hearse. This is offscreen but he burps out some wool and other monsters' reactions to it can be seen. Wayne remarks "You eat lamb chops. It's the same thing" making it very clear what he was doing.

Johnny wonders if his hand would disappear if he stuck it in the Invisible Man's mouth, and in a later scene the Invisible Man says he tried doing it, but the action itself is not seen.

At one point, Frankenstein's monster belly flops off a kraken's tentacle and his body slowly comes apart after he lands. No blood. Played comedically.

The violence are cartoony and slapstick.

Recurring gag of a fly monster coughing up slime and rubbing his hands in it.

Comic 3D animated cartoon violence.

Dracula mentions "biting a bird's head off" but it isn't shown.

An armored guard (which appears to be hollow) is kicked in the groin and feels pain.

Oh My God is said once.

Monsters sometimes drink cocktails

Quasimodo ties up Johnny and attempts to cook him on a spit, but Dracula saves him.

A few jumpscares on the beginning of the movie.

Mild/Moderate for neurodivergent viewers.

Periodically throughout the film Dracula becomes angry and roars loudly as his eyes glow red. Edited to elicit a jump scare reaction. Played for laughs.

Some of the monsters are intended to be comedic.

The scene where Mavis is visiting the human village may be frightening to some, as it has a few "jump scares."

Dracula's fanged, red-eyed roar of disapproval (that is used for comedic effect) is done in an unexpected jump-scare-mode, using extreme close-ups and an eerie reddish hue. And it is repeated on multiple instances. But he makes it plain that he could never actually cause Johnny harm.

The scene when Dracula tells the story of his wife's and Mavis's mom's death (with flashbacks) is a bit of a tearjerker. It is revealed that humans were responsible which is why Dracula worked so hard to offer refuge to monsters.

The story of Mavis' mom's death at the hands of rampaging humans is told with a bit more serious tone; we see a burning building and men with torches. We also see Dracula telling her to get somewhere safe and her hand falling.

Johnny breaks up with Mavis, acting like a jerk, but he does it to spare her feelings, since Dracula told him that a human and a vampire can't have a romantic relationship.
