Continuity mistake: The beginning of the movie shows the year as 1897. Dracula and his group of dudes are on a train going on what seems to be a vacation. Once Van Helsing attempts to kill the monster gang, a series of other previous failed attempts to murder Dracula play out. At the end of the flashback Dracula says it would be great if there was a place for monsters to go, possibly a hotel. The problem is Mavis was born in 1894, and in the first instalment we learned the hotel was being already being constructed when Mavis was a baby three years earlier.
Suggested correction: He had actually said something about being able to go and maybe even get married. He obviously wasn't planning on having weddings at the currently under construction hotel.
He had already been married by this point and Martha had already died, and he didn't believe on second Zings.
