The German Media (MDM) supported the project development of the movie SCHOOL FOR VAMPIRES by promoting a 3D produced by RABBIX VFX GmbH Weimar and Hahn Film AG, as Gerhard Hahn will be director and producer. The production should begin in 2010. However, as of June 2021, no updates have been released. As stated on the Hahn Film website, the film would have followed Oskar trying to pursue a career in singing by starring in a musical while also trying to pursue his love for Sunshine. The potential film adaptation of the series would have had a runtime of 80 minutes and it would have also have been a fully animated feature.
The film adaptation of the already published in 5 countries book series by Jackie Niebisch is co-produced by the ARD, CARTOON ONE and the DZT and the first 78 episodes were broadcast by ARD and KIKA with high odds. An animated television series was developed, producing several seasons. The first 26 individual new episodes were completed under the direction of Tony Power and aired from March 2010. The international pre-sales of the series support the sale of the movie, which is planned for 2010.
The animated series had one significant difference, depending on the voice dubbing and location of its broadcast. The German dub had different names for four of the main characters.
