===[[Background character]]s===
During gameplay, various enemies from the ''Castlevania'' series will make an appearance, including the Creature (also known as ''"Frankenstein's Monster"'', from ''Frankenstein'' by Mary Shelley) with his Flea Man ally Igor, a Mummy, Medusa, the Werewolf, Carmilla (in her giant mask form, also called "Vampira", from ''Simon's Quest''), and Death. Each enemy has their own entrance based on how they appeared during their original boss battle (such as the Werewolf leaping through a window). The silhouette of Kid Dracula from the ''{{iw|wikipedia|Kid Dracula|1990 video game}}'' spin-off series appears occasionally. All these characters stay in the background, which means they do not interrupt the fight at all, even with [[stage hazard]]s turned on.

When the moon disappears in the darkness and bats gather around Dracula's coffin, lightning will flash, revealing the shadows of [[Dracula]] or Kid Dracula in the middle of a castle. Dracula himself appears as a [[boss]] in [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]] in a boss arena resembling the castle, but with a flat and empty layout.

*The [[Moon]] cannot be summoned from an [[Assist Trophy]] on this stage, due to the normal moon being visible in the background, and [[Nikki]] cannot be summoned due to the dark background obscuring her drawings. Additionally, [[Lunala]] cannot be summoned from a [[Poké Ball]] here.

*Masahiro Sakurai stated in a [[YouTube]] video<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKQ2v9kno9I=146s Odds and Ends of Supervising <nowiki>[Graphics]</nowiki>]</ref> that Dracula's Castle particularly dark aesthetic was useful during development, examples including seeing a [[Mine / Craft / Create Block|block]] anywhere on-screen as well as being used for an edition of "Find the [[Enderman]]," a game Sakurai created where he would hide the Enderman somewhere on screen for the development team to find.
