It is an opportune time for the venue, with the upcoming release of Hotel Transylvania: Transformania, the latest in the US$1.3bn movie franchise from Sony Pictures.

The park, a huge 300,000sq.m location, celebrated the opening with Dracula touring the park to meet guests along with many other characters.

The new feature of the park took three years to plan and build, said Ivan Scholl, technical director of the park. “We wanted to build a unique space for Russia, combining the latest technical and creative solutions to create a comedic horror experience suitable for the whole family.”

Inside the Hotel Transylvania ride, guests can enjoy a Tavern of Fear snack bar, a Vampire’s Bite burger café and Transylvania Treasures gift shop. The new area of the park is included in the overall entrance fee.
