    Since I was little, I have been hypnotized by the stars. Each star twinkles in such a spectacular way, that when I would look outside my window, with my teddy bear in hand, I would have trouble picking my favorite one. The stars inspired me to be curious, to look for the same light they gave off in the world around me, and to love myself just like I loved the stars.

    Grrrr, Grrr. I got nothing, really got nothing.” Although Frankenstein is most often portrayed as a monster, Hotel Transylvania puts a spin on his personality and portrays him as something like a big, strange-looking teddy bear.
