CastleVania Links

[Japanside: Akumajou Dracula Links!]

Treasure Inc.
According to The FunkDOC, a small group of Konami guys, who would later make Gunstar Heroes, created the CastleVania series. They split after refusing to produce sequel after sequel of Vampire Killing action. When will someone write a book on this stuff? (or will I end up writing it in 2011...)

Konami
Leave it up to Konami to use 1990's 8-bit technology to make something so good.

The CastleVania Dungeon
Formerly @ http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Alley/3138/, http://www.classicgaming.com/castlevania/, and http://castlevania.classicgaming.gamespy.com/
THE CastleVania site after Demon Castle faded. I've contributed much during its continuing 3 year history, mostly fan art and enemy info. The site all CastleVaniacs look up to. Heh. I'm behind it, too!

The Realm of CV2

Formerly known as "Simon's Quest"
Wasn't Simon's Quest just GREAT? Last time I checked, Rob's CastleVania page vanished, so go here for your CV2 needs.


CastleVania III Dracula's Curse THE PAGE!!!

You are here. Known as DCTP, THE PAGE!!! features detailed hero and monster listings, passwords, MIDI music and WAV clips, droves of humorous content, squads of Fan Art, mostly mine, and a fine assortment of Links to lead you away from the first, and once said 'best' CastleVania III page. Not listed on any webring, DCTP remains truly underground for over 3 years.


CastleVania BLOODLINES

Soon to become the best, last, and only source for information on CastleVania 5! ...maybe I'll help with the Boss guides let's see... Stage one, Boss 2, Armor Battler...

That makes the consecutive CV sites counted to...4.
(your name here), do sites on Super CastleVania IV and CastleVania 6 (US, as opposed to PCE)!

Darkhugh's Den Guide to Dracula X Nocturne in the Moonlight
The first Dracula X Nocturne site and with Monster Dictionary translations!


The CastleVania Saga
Formerly @ http://www.fortunecity.com/tattooine/davros/57/csaga.html
My neighbor at FortuneCity, containing LOADS of info about the historical Dracula! Found in 1998 in an Excite search. Holds its own very well and has a radical look.

Super CastleVania 2!
THE site for THE CastleVania NES ROM hack!

Kris's CastleVania Page
A site about CastleVania 64. Starring Kiki Fernandez of the Delivery Service.

CastleVania Kingdom
This site features a good CastleVania for the 64 section.
 

Annie's Symphony of the Night page
Annie's GREAT art and her view on things about arguably the best CastleVania game, Symphony of the Night, await. Learned me the 210% trick!

Keep of Trav the Impaler
Watch out you "would-be Castlevania site authors", you better be taking notes..."Be warned, you may like this place so much that you'll never want to leave!" You're kidding me, right? I've read two and a half page fanfics that have kept me captive longer than this site. Whatever. That's why this inexcusably torrid site's CastleVania soda has a "For the U.C. King" PEPSI logo next to it. "uncle----ers" "CLICK THE KEYHOLE TO WARP INTO HELL BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" SHOOT! I thought this opening page WAS HELL!!!

Nice to see this site still extant, actually...

CastleVania II Belmont's Revenge Tribute
This site's got all my support! Gotta love BELMONT'S REVENGE, the true CastleVania II.

CastleVania: Sailor Senshi in the Moonlight
THE CastleVania Symphony and Sailor Moon crossover! Lot's of fun stuff here! Ying Girl's so cool, I can forgive her for the hidden pikachodes!

Mr P.'s CastleVania Realm
One day, a Google search for Slogra reveals site that is an explicit WOW. (whatever THAT means) The design's hot and the site is THICK! DEFINITELY approved! Scope it. NOW. Dare I call this Super CastleVania Dungeon II: The Next Generation?

Dance of Pales CastleVania Quarters
THIS is the way to make your site pretty with SotN sprites. A clean cut site with an interesting article on DreamCastleVania, which at this point is as undead as most of the enemies in the game.

CastleVania Interactive
Formerly @ http://www.clockworkmansion.com/ericroman/cvi/
On EBC Nightly News, in his own words tonight, Scott Helfrich, of the CastleVania II Belmont's Revenge Tribute.
"Castlevania Interactive is the new reviews, articles, fan art, and fan fiction part of Belmont's Revenge. Castlevania Interactive is a division of Belmont's Revenge dedicated to promoting the CV series and good videogaming everywhere. Not only will CV Interactive offer our reviews, articles, fan art, fan fiction, but you too can send your reviews, articles, fan art, and fan fictions (while we prefer Castlevania related material, we will be offering general videogame related material as well). We'll post them to the best of our ability. Have fun and enjoy. 'A site by the fans...for the fans.' "
Thanks, Scott. And from all of us at EBC Nightly News, I am a rooster.. Good night.

CastleVania III Dracula's Curse THE PAGE!!! FAN ART GALLERY!!!
Check out some artwork by several CastleVania fans and an entire collection of doodles by the infamous Eric Roman in DCTP's Fan Art Gallery! Part of DCTP, the DCTP FA---woah... the Gallery... acts independantly, with its own changes schedule. Submissions are welcome until the end of DCTP.

Dracula Battles Barely Perfect!
A long, long time ago, and not that far away, some pre-prepubescent kid named Eric Roman ran his tape recorder while he was playing Nintendo with his friends and family. Luckily, these are what happened. Part of DCTP, DBBP acts autonomously. With the exception of Dman's Game Programming Domain in 1997 and 1998, there's no other site around like it...no other site I know. Unless you count any site with video reviews of "game experts" getting creamed in Wizards and Warriors and Mega Man 2.

CastleVania Dome
This site is just starting up, but I approve.

Ruins of CastleVania
Slogra the Man will have to press his triple-bladed Naginata against my spine before I believe this site originally began in 1996. In any event, it's back and better than ever with nice sprites and EXCLUSIVE artwork and cosplay (costume-play) pictures you may have NEVER seen before! Bwee! Enjoy!

CastleVania Circle of the Moon
Formerly @ http://www.circleofthemoon.cjb.net/ and http://castlevania.classicgaming.gamespy.com/cotm/
The FIRST, BEST, COOLEST, and ONLY CircleVania site there is! Not including DCTP's, DoPCQ's, and TCVD's infos... Lookin' good with lots of sprites and artwork! Adromelek probably takes the cake as being CircleVania's COOLEST boss character!

CastleVania: Rough SeX in the Moonlight Mature Readers Only...May Contain Curses and Boinking and Other Stuff the Kids Shouldn't See Until their Minds can Handle it... (ICVD Version)
Move over, Humor Me, Ratzuo's hilarity threatens to---HEY! Heh, just kidding. Completely off the wall site featuring all your favorite SotN guys in adult situations. Ingenious sprite edits. WARNING! For mature audiences and High School assassins ONLY!

Brian's CastleVania
A cache of game sprites is the shiniest highlight of this fine-planned CastleVania site.

Haunted Castle
Another new game-specific with the coolest introduction I've EVER read on a CV site! Serious.

The CastleVania Treasury
Formerly known as "The Super CastleVania IV Treasury" and @ http://scv4.cjb.net/
MAN. 3 new CastleVania sites sprung up in less than a week. Well, here's a newie for Super CastleVania IV. The Super CVIV site of Dave's World is long gone...so let's see how this one goes over. However, this isn't the one I was told of weeks ago which would have something about Slogra in it...but stay tuned.

Anapan's CV Files
Formerly @ http://members.fortunecity.com/anapan8/cv/
The CastleVania goodies found here are SO COOL! He's got mostly all of SotN Alucard and Trevor's sprites!

CastleVania Legacy
Formerly @ http://castlevanialegacy.cjb.net/
Also has a forum and is absoultely stockpiled with lavish CastleVania animated GIFs. I made some!

The Forbidden Courtyard
Another up-and-coming CastleVania site, looks to feature another collection of humor, as well as alternate takes on the too-sweet games o' CV. I named it. ^_^

CastleVania Online
Setting my Slogra animations aside, there's been a huge surge in SotN graphics nabbing over this year of 2001, and you bet your Banshee Boomerangs that Anapan is part of it! But for what reason? Find out here. And if'n you find yourself battered by an army of red Slogras in the future, you'll know which site meister to blame.

Akumajo.com: Le château du démon
Well, now...we've a French one here. I like France. ^_^ Fabulous artwork, beautiful architechture, those legendary maids... ^_^; I was talking about France. Ahem! Anyway, this site, backed by SotN's "Silence" track, has some neat content for you. You can take a look at the author's quite extensive collection of Japanese CastleVania games and soundtracks. (Did you just see what he said about Mr. P's CastleVania Realm?!) You'll also find some sections on DreamCast games and other game companies. Didn't know they had an SNK of France. Hm!

CastleMania
Ph33r has n0 f0rm...ph33r has n0 name...but now, FEAR HAS AN ADDRESS. CastleMania. Now with 100% more Flying Horse Heads. For your CastleVania Worldwide. From Skahottnet.

Bobby Zero's CastleVania Page
Has the basic template offerings of most CastleVania sites, but hey, if you want the site to work on yourself, you can have it! That's a unique offering... Has ROMs, too.

CastleVania 1970: Disco of Evil
I've not begun to read this immense ongoing improvisational fanfic project, but I'm sure you can dig it. Also, be sure to check out the cool arts (and indeed Slogra's hidden in one)! The title pic is priceless...

Gokuma's Dracula X NITM page
Formerly @ http://pit.condemned.com/drac/
If you've ever wanted to know all about the differences between the Saturn and PlayStation Symphonies, this is the one you need to see. Packed with loads of info, this site also has lots of informative screensnaps.

CastleVania: Harmony of Dissonance
Formerly @ http://castlevania.classicgaming.gamespy.com/cotm/hod/
If you're already familiar with Vic Rattlehead and Gaimphax's CircleVania site, then you already know the drill. Here's where they've got Harmony fully covered.

The Sanctum of Alucard
If you dig the Symphony Al, then you'll find yourself most welcome here. That little nav-map is a nice touch.

The CastleVania Attic
Formerly @ http://www.fortunecity.com/underworld/pong/490/
Absolutely one of the fastest-growing and best new CV sites to come out for the year 2002. Raven Reaper came so strong, he eventually gained his own following, DCTP-style! The Attic's got much to offer, in its own original spirit, so be sure to come up and stay a while.

John and Audra's CastleVania Page! (ICVD Version)
J&A's is BACK!!! I think I liked it more when it was less-designed, though. The PS2 CV logo doesn't exactly ooze 'old skool' CV fandom... Anyway,...
This site RULES! Hot out of the microwave, let it stand 5 minutes before serving. Just think of DCTP with the wackiness turned up several scores of decibles!

CastleVania: Messing up Dracula's Turf
Here's where you can find out how to Sequence Break and generally SCREW UP your favorite MetroidVania games, and Dracula X, too! Very thorough, with some great screens.

The Villa
The Great Ralphy Boy's home on the CastleVania WorldWide where LIGHTNING STRIKES!!!

The Catacombs
Formerly known as "The CastleVania Catacombs" and @ http://www.geocities.com/cvcatacombs/
Care to see some good Flash work in action, as well as the unapproved THEFT of my own Humor pieces? Check this site out!

The Aria of Sorrow Citadel
Formerly @ http://castlevania.classicgaming.gamespy.com/aoscitadel/intro.html
The circle of CV on GBA is complete. xenx22 breaks down a bit of the info you'll need to get through this episode. If you survive, kick back for a few laughs in the Humor section!

CastleVania HQ
Formerly @ http://castlevania.classicgaming.gamespy.com/cvhq/
After scoping out this site entirely dedicated to CastleVania 1, you'll probably never need another.

LinnaVaanijat
LV comes direct to you from Finland! Can't make heads or tails? Just hit the little British flag for a little translation. Oh, and don't miss the Gallery!

CastleVania Corner
CVC is where I be for the CV-BBSing these days. It's not that active, but I guess that's okay.

Chapel of Resonance
Aside from a certain basilica below, this is the only CV site I've seen that uses Flash to enhance the experience, and what an experience! The crew of this Chapel has some seriously nice design sense to go along with its 'tude; CoR loves CastleVania. Brace yourself, you're going to find a LOT of goodness here. Its history was a nice read...

Castlevania Wiki
Yup, it actually happened. However, this Wikipedia spinoff can't ever replace the extant sites listed, can it?

Castlevania Rips Mature Readers Only...May Contain Curses and Boinking and Other Stuff the Kids Shouldn't See Until their Minds can Handle it...
Like a present-day Anapan, Serio presents a pretty thick collection of near-perfect CastleVania spriteness for all your homebrew, aniGIF'in, and Flash animatin' needs! The Dracula X and GBA games are primarily covered, but one more section features a few other CV episodes.

Castlevania Encyclopedia
If you're in need of the most current CastleVania news, this is where you're going. You'll also find plenty of video of people blazing through the recent CVs.

goat's Castle
Pass the gates, step into goat's Castle, and follow the Unchosen Paths for one seriously rockin' collection of CastleVania remixes. The best part? They're mostly from Dracula's Curse! Get ready to make like Dwelling of Duels and ROCK OUT!!!

Super CastleVania IV: The Page
Gaibon (from 2002's CastleVania Outer Wall) returns for the oh-nine with his next endeavor, dedicated to one of the best games EVER. Stay tuned.


Akumajou Dracula Links

''MAY-DAY...MAY-DAY!!!''"HOLD UP, DUDES!!! In case you don't know Japanese, these pages will be easier to read through OCN's translator!
All's you gottta do is just hit the tab with the blue text, paste the URL, select the second radio button, and you're good to go!
As the great J.D. Roth once said, 'That tip...was on me!' :D"

CastleVania Xtacy Mature Readers Only...May Contain Curses and Boinking and Other Stuff the Kids Shouldn't See Until their Minds can Handle it...
A CastleVania site in English and Japanese, based on Dracula X. Check out the galleries! (That's what I said before I said "Yikes...and I thought CastleVania ecchi didn't exist...")

CastleVania Holy Bible
Japan does the Dungeon. In Japanese! I hate how everyone's calling it CastleVania CHRONICLES when it's actually CHRONICLE. That would be like us calling it "Dracula's Curses."

SANCTUARY CASTLE
This Japanese site has a newsboard (in Japanese, of course), an MP3 of Bloody Tears Remix MIDI for that azz, and a decent collection of links to many other Japanese CastleVania sites! Akumajou go!!!

The Dracula X Library
If Darkhugh's Den had a Japanese relative, this site would be it, no question. While not exactly the most decorated of Dracula X NitM sites (check out its gallery!), you will find that it leads to...

Mondo Maniacs
Coolness overload... In another site for my Japanese collection of Links, you'll find some more Dracula X NitM info, and to cream it over, lots of cool cutesy Super Deformed art of everyone on the boss list! Check out Berrigan, Gaibon, the Zombie Trio and all your fave masters! It's all under Mondo Maniacs' Dracula X section. Mondo art funs, Maniacs style.

http://www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconValley/5158/
I know Japanese...I speak it more confidently than Spanish...but this is a little difficult even for me to figure out... Far as I can tell, we've here a hub of different sites, probably by the same site meister, and among them a few on the Japanese CV series. One is listed with the others on the top of the page, and the other can be found through a button link near the bottom. The trio of links above the button lead to Famicom, Dracula, and some sort of Journal links. At the Akumajou Dracula site, you'll find some stuff about the Chronicle and Super CastleVania Simons (complete with funny dancing head .GIF).

Ieyasu's castlevania page
Check out Ieyasu's stage for all the Japanese homebrew action you can handle. GOOD LUCK. If you were lucky enough to survive his challenging homebrews, check out his other points of interest in the link collections.

opus. 13
Hey, now! This Japanese site contains the first Japanese Humor Me I've seen! You can't beat that for points. Seems as if we finally know who plays the part of Mud Men in CastleVania III. Keep your clickers open for even more amusing pics and screensnap fakes. Another thing that I like about this one is its coverage of CastleVania III... That's right, OUR CastleVania III. Guess they wanted to know as much about the differences in our foreign version as we do. And hey! Take a look at the bitty Commodore and Amiga versions, as well as CV-DOS! This site's a pretty good hit! Check it!

Biserica Basm
It was during my Flash Renaissance during the Spring that ushered in ParoVadius that I first came across this nicely constructed Flash site; patterned after the Japanese version of CastleVania III! While it appears to not have seen an update since the Summer of 2001, this basilica proudly stands. Features scores of artwork, a couple of games, and a good batch of tunes. See how long you can last in Ralph's Hangman game...:]

Curious Bar
A Google Image search for BERIGAN led me to this spot with quite a few Fan Arts. You'll find plenty of amusing depictions of the CV humanoids, but you'll occasionally come across a beastie or two, like, hey!...Slogra, Under Mole, and Punaguchi!

''Hey, see you later!''

Try another path?

Go forth; defeat Dracula with the knowledge of a master!
