"Welcome to Monster High", alternatively titled "Welcome to Monster High: The Origin Story" is the fourteenth TV special, and the first to take place in Generation 2 of Monster High. The story is a reimagining of the origins of Monster High and how the main characters first met, and is very different from the story presented in earlier webisodes such as New Ghoul @ School.

Errors

The opening sequence of Draculaura learning how to turn into a bat raises some questions in regards to Fangelica VanBat. The general implication of the Monster Family line is that monsters are born more monstrous and grow up to be more human-like. Fangelica herself is a lot more bat-like, wings and all, than the older Draculaura. So how come transforming into a bat is something vampires have to learn?
Why exactly would the mapalogue fall out of use if monsters have to go into hiding? Wouldn't it be the safest way to keep in contact with each other?
When the Ghoul Squad zaps into the Moanica's graveyard, they are wearing their helmets. As they stand up from the fall, they are without helmets.
So if no one was going to vote for Moanica, then why were they all acting like they were? She wasn't threatening anyone; her campaign was solid arguments and goodwill only.
Both Draculaura and Frankie put their hands on Ari's shoulder towards the end of the movie, which should not be possible when she is in ghost form.

Other

This is the first movie made for Monster High by Flaunt Productions and Mattel Creations.
The score was composed by Daniel James (HybridTwo) and produced by Klaus Badelt, who was also responsible for composing the score of Pirates of the Caribbean and co-created "He's A Pirate" with Hans Zimmer.
This is the second Monster High movie to get a release in movie theaters instead of direct-to-DVD, also known as direct-to-video. The first was 13 Wishes.
