High school can be scary — even for monster students attending Monster High. Nickelodeon and Mattel have revealed a first look at the animated adaptation of Mattel’s rebooted scary-fashion doll franchise, which follows Clawdeen Wolf, Draculaura, Frankie Stein, and Deuce Gorgon as they discover who they are, embrace their differences, and learn to be fierce and fearless at the one place they all belong: Monster High. The first of 26 episodes premieres just before Halloween on Friday, October 28, on Nickelodeon. Watch the extended clip and see the official key art below.

- Jordan R. Coleman (A Million Little Things) as Manny Taur – Big, bull-headed Manny looks like a brute, but he’s the gentlest kid at school. With his penchant for solving puzzles, he’s one of the only students that can compete with Draculaura for honors as a top student.
- Krystina Alabado (Sesame Street Mecha Builders) as Nefera De Nile – Nefera is the mummy who has it all – beauty, popularity, royalty, and a heart of gold (literally, she dipped her heart in gold and keeps it in a jar).
