Sony Pictures Animation says it plans to release a fourth Open Season movie on DVD and Blu-ray next spring.
Directed by David Feiss, Scared Silly brings back reindeer Elliot, bear Boog and all of the beloved woodland creatures in a new comedy adventure.
"My affection for these characters has only grown since we introduced them in Sony Pictures Animation's first feature. We're having a lot of fun bringing them back for a new adventure -- it feels like a big party with old friends," Feiss said in a statement.
The latest sequel opens with Elliot telling a campfire story about the legend of the Wailing Wampus Werewolf that lives in Timberline National Forest.
"Domesticated Boog is terrified by the story and decides to 'chicken out' of their annual summer camping trip until he knows the werewolf is gone," a synopsis said. "Determined to help Boog overcome his fears, Elliot and their woodland friends band together to scare the fear out of Boog and uncover the mystery of the Wailing Wampus Werewolf."
