One interesting detail is that the 2022 series isn’t simply a continuation of the original Monster High continuity. It establishes its own alternate continuity, separate from the live-action Monster High: The Movie. For example, Clawdeen’s introduction and Draculaura’s witchcraft storyline are handled differently in the animated series.
The reboot also deliberately redesigned the characters with fuller, more natural body proportions and flat shoes, a notable change from the original character designs.
Another fun connection to the original franchise appears during the “Portrait of a Monster” storyline, where viewers can spot a hologram referencing Frankie Stein’s original Gen 1 outfit.
