Haunted Castle is one of the forgotten Castlevania titles, released for arcades without any explicit connection to the series (at least in America and Europe). It's also hella hard. Good music, though.





Hmmm...

To do:
There's likely more revisional differences...and wasn't there some third version, too?

Unused Graphics


THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!

A weapon icon for an unused book or Bible subweapon.


This water tastes a little holey.

Graphics for what appears to be the Holy Water weapon used in other Castlevania games. A bomb is used instead.


Don't cross me!

An alternate graphic set for the Holy Cross weapon which flies across the screen in a much more similar manner to the classic Castlevania version. Note that these are not mirrored – each frame is separate from the other.


Haunted Castle AC - Filler 1.pngHaunted Castle AC - Filler 2.png

Two sets of filler icons, used in different areas of the ROM. They both read "kara", which means "empty" in Japanese.


Haunted Castle AC - Ikero.png

Another filler word. This one reads "ikeru", which means "to go".


Haunted Castle AC - Danny.pngHaunted Castle AC - Filler 3.png

More filler data: a beetle with "Danny" written underneath, and a smaller version of said beetle. The palette may be incorrect on both of these. "Danny" may be a mistransliteration of "Dummy".


Revisional Differences


There are two revisions of the game: Version K, and Version M. The former is the original version, while the latter has fewer enemy drops and harder-hitting enemy attacks.
