Free Printable Hotel Transylvania Bingo

Free Printable Hotel Transylvania Bingo

Read more »
Hotel Transylvania is one of our favorite movies to watch, especially at Halloweentime. Hotel Transylvania 2 is just as spectacular as the first, and introduces some fun, new characters. Since we can't possibly be the only ones who love Hotel Transylvania, I've created a free printable Hotel Transylvania Bingo for you all to play!

Free Printable Hotel Transylvania Bingo at artsyfartsymama.com

Hotel Transylvania Bingo includes all of your favorite characters from the Hotel Transylvania movies. In the bingo set, there are eight bingo cards in different orders, so it's easy to print and use for your parties. It's fun for every age to play, and the calling cards include the names of the characters in case you don't know who they are.

(Set includes 8 bingo cards and calling pieces in a single PDF file)

The blank set works a little differently. You get one bingo card with empty spaces (except for the "free" spot). Then, you print and cut out the bingo pieces so you can assemble the bingo cards yourself! Just glue the pieces in place, and you're ready to play! This is a great option for little hands that want to be creative, or if you have a larger group of people and don't want multiple cards that are the same. The blank bingo set includes all the same characters as the full set, but you can create your own bingo card setup.

(Set includes one blank bingo card, bingo pieces, and calling pieces in a single PDF file)

Game Instructions
1. Pick some kind of object to mark your squares or use a dry erase marker.
2. Give each player a Bingo card and markers (or put your own together with the blank set). Have each player put a marker over the free space.
3. Have one person choose a calling card and say it out loud., call it out or have each child mark it as they see it. Each player will cover that item on their card with a marker. Once a player has 5 squares covered in a row (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally), they call out "BINGO!" and win the game!

Some things you should know before downloading:
*Artsy-Fartsy Mama printables are for PERSONAL USE ONLY.
*You may NOT modify, re-sell, redistribute, or claim the design as your own.
*Please do not remove the credits/watermarks.
*If you share this on the internet, credit must be given to Artsy-Fartsy Mama & linked back to this post.

To lengthen the life of the prints, I would recommend printing the Bingo cards and calling pieces on cardstock and laminating or putting in a plastic page. All files are 8.5x11 inches and put together in a single PDF format.

Have fun!! Would love to hear from you if you play using my printable! If you have any bingo ideas you'd like me to make in the future, please let me know!

Halloween decor is one of my favorite things to create. I love the colors, and adding a bit of sparkle to otherwise spooky objects. I gave these skulls a sparkly transformation with Mod Podge and turned them into this fun Halloween Skull Wreath. This is a fun and easy project for any crafting level to create, and best of all, it's budget-friendly!
