He then carries the ship over to debarkation area and the monsters arrive in a in hallway that leads to a huge casino.
Later, the Kraken is seen sleeping in his bed under the sea. However, Abraham Van Helsing uses the music sheet from inside the Instrument of Destruction to play a song that awakens and hypnotizes Kraken, transforming him into a hostile, destructive monster. The Kraken then emerges from the ocean and begins to violently attack the monsters, who are now at a party in a small colosseum-like building near Atlantis. Dracula attempts to stop him, but the Kraken quickly injures and nearly suffocates Dracula with his tentacles. Mavis attempts to fly to her father and save him, but Kraken grabs Mavis and slams her back down onto the floor.
