Monster Mia

Drei animierte Kinder mit unterschiedlichen Ausdrücken stehen vor einem fantasievollen Hintergrund mit einem Schloss und fliegenden Fledermäusen.

After being unwillingly transferred to a different school, Mia finally feels like she belongs at the spooky Finsterwald Academy. Together with her new monster friends, she must stop the evil plan of the vengeful headmaster Van Vlad, who wants to turn the people of Lilienthal into monsters. Can Mia save the town and finally bring peace between humans and monsters?
