Dracula's Castle (ドラキュラ城, Dracula Castle) is a stage in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It is the home stage of Simon and Richter.
Stage description
Dracula's Castle features two platforms to the left and right that move up and down. All the way to the right side is a set of stairs whose bottom half is broken off. Candles in the background can be destroyed, dropping items.
Hazards
During gameplay, various boss characters from Castlevania will make an appearance, including the Creature (also known as "Frankenstein" or "Frankenstein's Monster") with Flea Man (also known as "Igor"), Mummy, Medusa, Werewolf, Carmilla (in her giant mask form from Simon's Quest), and Death. Each enemy has their own entrance based on how they appeared during the original boss battle (such as Werewolf leaping through a window). The silhouette of Kid Dracula from the Boku: Dracula-kun spin-off series was also shown during the August 8, 2018 Ultimate Direct, with no explanation.
The silhouette of Dracula can also be seen when lightning strikes. Dracula himself appears as a boss in an area resembling Dracula's Castle, but with a flat and empty layout. Series director Masahiro Sakurai stated that "time will tell" under what conditions Dracula appears.[1]
Origin
Throughout the Castlevania series, the top of Dracula's Castle is the endpoint of the protagonist's journey, where they fight the main antagonist Dracula. Dracula's Castle is always a large structure full of horrifying monsters and tortuous rooms; in the background is the clock tower explored Castlevania III and Super Castlevania IV. Candles are a common element in the Castlevania games and are broken to reveal whip upgrades, hearts, food, and items. Every time Dracula's Castle is destroyed, it magically rebuilds itself every hundred or so years, along with a reincarnation of Dracula.
Trivia
Areas of Dracula's Castle appear as various stages in Castlevania Judgment. This technically makes it one of six stages in the Super Smash Bros. series to be featured as a stage in other fighting games, the others being the Fountain of Dreams, Green Hill Zone, Pyrosphere, Suzaku Castle, and Midgar.
