Mattel’s Monster High toy line gave a classic monster twist to dolls along with a web series that segued into other forms of media to flesh out the dolls’ fictional stories. Its popularity only continues to grow, resulting in a new live-action movie for tweens, full of catchy tunes and monster charm – just in time for Halloween.
Clawdeen Wolf (Miia Harris) struggles to find her place in the world as a half human and half werewolf teen. Feeling shunned by humans, Clawdeen decides to follow in mom’s footsteps and attend Monster High, a school reserved solely for those with true monster hearts. That means she’ll have to keep her human heritage a secret. Clawdeen quickly makes friends with roommates Frankie Stein (Ceci Balagot) and Draculaura (Nayah Damasen), enemies with Cleo de Nile (Jy Prishkulnik), and even forms a crush on the kind Deuce Gorgon (Case Walker). All that newfound acceptance threatens to come toppling down when strange happenings and body changes threaten to expose Clawdeen’s human half.
