Castlevania Ending



he original Castlevania has only one ending available to it. It is reached upon defeating Count Dracula atop his Castle Keep. Collecting the usual stage-clearing crystal will play the special jingle exclusive to the final battle, and the ending will commence soon after.

It's a strange ending, too. It starts off in the now-expected way: the Demon Castle collapsing. But after the animation is over and done with, the weirdness sets in. Instead of listing the developers behind the game, it plays akin to the credits of a movie, where the character's name is shown with the respective actor just below it. In this case, many names are taken from horror film legends, but deviated oh-so-slightly, to avoid legal problems. Among the actors are such famous names as Christopher Bee, Belo Lugosi, Boris Karloffice and Love Chaney, just to name a few.

And yes, that ever-delightful Simon Belmondo managed to get his name in the credits, too.
