[[File:136_full_6002.png|frame|All the Kings of Evil are decking their castles out with giant rotting corpses nowadays.]]
 
Line 8:
* Dracula's castle itself can be seen as one. Due to its always different inner structure in every game, it has been referred by Alucard as a "Creature of Chaos".
* In ''[[Castlevania: Symphony of the Night]]'', after descending far underground to the deepest part of the castle, you encounter Granfalloon/Legion in the catacombs. It is a Cosmic Horror creature covered in a "shell" of naked, faceless corpses, and they're screaming.
** First things first: the [[Game Over]] screen. Whether it is [http://blogs.ocweekly.com/heardmentality/Castlevania%20Symphony%20of%20the%20Night%20Game%20Over.jpg the imagery]{{Dead link}} or [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ao7ATGYquBU the music,] either one of those things are more than likely to catch gamers off-guard [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtLe2lDIdkw&feature=relmfu when combined.]
** This monster may look both fucking scary and funny at the same time...
** Legion returns in Portrait of Ruin, only this time, to add to the nightmare, the bodies ''fall off'' as you damage the boss, disappearing into nothing. Try to not think about how those might have been innocent souls you just murdered.
Line 53:
** The music is also scary, reaching its peak as the massive abomination is slowly revealed. Thankfully, the following boss, [[Light Is Not Good|Nuculais]], may be eerie, but is far less scary. Actually, when you see him opening his mouth, he'll fall into the [[Nightmare Retardant]] category!
* In ''Circle of the Moon'' there are the magic cards Nathan can collect and use for differing effects. If he uses one particular combo, Pluto and Black Dog, Nathan will become a skeleton that can throw bones, [[One-Hit Wonder|is killed by any hit while in this form]], [[Magikarp Power|but also has a random chance of throwing an uber-sized bone that does max damage]], [[Game Breaker|even to bosses]]. While most would see [[Lethal Joke Character|nothing wrong with this]], try [[Fridge Logic|thinking a little deeper in Nathan's shoes for a moment]]... {{spoiler|On the otherhand, [[Nightmare Retardant|using the aforementioned combo with the Bear Ring will turn Nathan into a stuffed teddy bear instead]].}}
* In Harmony of Despair's multiplayer, your character can resume play after being killed... As a skeleton. Now imagine someone like [[Token Mini-MoeLoli|Maria]] or Charlotte or another favourite character getting turned into a skeleton.<ref>[[Fridge Logic|Well, unless you realize that Maria's skeleton would be the same height as everyone else's]].</ref> Also of note is the second stage, if your character gets caught in one those iron maidens.... and blood comes out either way.
* One of the sidequests in Portrait of Ruin involves retrieving "The Statue's Tear". You get the item from a statue of the Virgin Mary in the Nation of Fools. All you have to do is press "up" and {{spoiler|a massive amount of blood spills out of the statue}}.
* Lords Of Shadow, the single darkest and most depressing of the series: The idea of losing your childhood love, who was so dear to you for your entire life, to a brutal, tragic death {{spoiler|at your own hands, and subsequently suffering a 1000-year life cursed with immortality without her around to heal your emotional wound, just like Gabriel?}}
Line 64:
** In the first part of the Menace battle, {{spoiler|he's trying to stab you with his ribs.}}
