Castlevania (TV series)

Updated: 12/20/2025, 2:44:37 PM Wikipedia source

Castlevania is an American adult animated dark fantasy action television series created and written by Warren Ellis for Netflix and produced by Frederator Studios's Kevin Kolde and Fred Seibert and Shankar Animation's Adi Shankar. Based on the Japanese video game series of the same name by Konami, the first two seasons adapt the 1989 entry Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse and follow Trevor Belmont, Alucard and Sypha Belnades as they defend the nation of Wallachia from Dracula and his minions. Additionally, characters and elements from the 2005 entry Castlevania: Curse of Darkness are featured beginning in the second season, and Alucard's backstory is drawn from the 1997 entry Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. The art style is heavily influenced by Japanese animation and Ayami Kojima's artwork. The series premiered on Netflix on July 7, 2017, and was renewed for an expanded second season of eight episodes on the same day; the second season premiered on October 26, 2018. A ten-episode third season was greenlit by Netflix and released on March 5, 2020. The series ended with the release of its fourth season on May 13, 2021. The series received critical acclaim, with praise for its visuals, animation, voice acting, action sequences, characterization, themes, and writing, although the pacing, particularly of the third and fourth seasons, garnered a polarized response. A follow-up series in the Castlevania setting, Castlevania: Nocturne, premiered on Netflix on September 28, 2023. The series focuses on Richter Belmont, a descendant of Trevor and Sypha, and Maria Renard during the French Revolution, with James Callis reprising his role as Alucard.

In Wallachia in 1455, a young woman named Lisa who wishes to be a doctor seeks out Vlad Dracula Tepes, a vampire with advanced scientific knowledge. Intrigued by her courage and ambition, Dracula agrees to teach her, while she in turn offers to help him reconnect with humanity. The two eventually fall in love and marry. Twenty years later (1475), in the town of Târgoviște, Lisa is burned at the stake after a bishop discovers scientific equipment in her home and accuses her of witchcraft. Devastated after learning of Lisa's death, Dracula declares to the people that they have one year to make their peace, after which every human in Wallachia will die by his hand. His son Adrian tells him to go after the man responsible instead of all of humanity, but Dracula refuses to listen and attacks him. One year later, the archbishop hosts a celebration in defiance of Dracula. As promised, Dracula kills the archbishop, destroys the church and orders his army of demonic Night Creatures to kill every person left in Wallachia. As the army spreads across the land, the people place the blame on the kingdom's noble families, including the Belmonts.

Following an altercation at a pub, Trevor Belmont seeks food and respite in the city of Gresit, which has been besieged by Dracula's forces every night. As he passes through town, he learns that the townspeople blame a group of nomadic scholars known as the Speakers for Dracula's assault. He saves their Elder from a pair of corrupt priests, who brings him back to the Speakers' home. Trevor insists they leave the city for their own safety, but the Elder refuses, as his grandchild has gone missing after venturing into the catacombs below the city in search of the "sleeping soldier", a legendary hero who they believe can defeat Dracula. Begrudgingly, Trevor agrees to retrieve the missing grandchild.

Exploring the catacombs, Trevor realizes that they have been unusually constructed and contain devices matching old family descriptions of devices within Dracula's castle. Finding a stone statue in the visage of a Speaker, Trevor is attacked by a giant cyclops. He defeats the creature, releasing its curse, and rescues the Elder's grandchild, Sypha Belnades. After returning Sypha to her grandfather, Trevor is summoned to the church by the local bishop, the same bishop who ordered Lisa's execution. He orders Trevor to leave Gresit before sundown, as the priests plan to lead a mob to kill the Speakers, offering to spare Trevor and restore his family name in exchange. With the Speakers refusing to retreat, Trevor has them hidden in the cyclops' chamber and takes on the priests leading the mob before escaping into the city.

Night falls as Dracula's army descends upon Gresit. Night Creatures invade the church as it has become so full of corruption that God's presence is no longer felt there. The creatures taunt the bishop by calling out his hypocrisy and false authority before killing him. While Trevor continues his escape, Sypha appears to aid him, revealing herself as a powerful magic user. Trevor exposes the clergy's actions as the true reason for Dracula's invasion and assists the people in mounting a defense against the demons. During the battle, the floor crumbles beneath Trevor and Sypha and they fall deep into the submerged catacombs of the city. Making their way in deeper, they find the "sleeping soldier", revealed to be Adrian, who has spent a year healing from his last fight with Dracula. Adrian, now going by Alucard, engages Trevor in battle, but after seeing his and Sypha's resolve, he relents. Alucard reveals that the myth of the "sleeping soldier" was actually from the future and foretold his meeting with Belmont and Sypha, and that he was testing their abilities. The three prepare to challenge Dracula and end the conflict for good.

October 26, 2018 (2018-10-26)
A flashback depicts Lisa's home in Lupu being raided by the Bishop and his men while Dracula is away, resulting in her arrest to be tried before an inquisition. In the present, Dracula assembles his war council, made up of vampire overlords from across the world, and places human necromancers Hector and Isaac in charge of the war on humanity. The Norse vampire Godbrand objects, believing they should rely on vampires instead of humans for leadership, but Dracula believes Hector and Isaac's hatred of their own kind makes them more trustworthy. As Gresit rebuilds after the battle, Sypha and Trevor see off the other Speakers while Alucard comes to terms with the decision to kill his father. At the castle, Godbrand laments to Hector that their war is fought with no strategy other than wanton destruction. Hector implies that Dracula wants all humans dead no matter the methods used, to Godbrand's disappointment. Dracula teleports the castle to a different location.

Trevor and Sypha reunite with Alucard and ask how to locate Dracula's castle when it can move from place to place. Trevor recommends revisiting his old family estate, as the hold beneath the ruins contains information on the castle and tools for monster-hunting. The vampire mistress Carmilla arrives at the castle and causes further discord among the council by criticizing Dracula's approach and inquiring why he did not turn Lisa into a vampire. While traveling to the Belmont estate, Trevor's party is attacked by Dracula's forces; the group slays all the attackers, save one injured demon who escapes. At the castle, Isaac reminisces on his past, having killed his previous abusive master in a moment that shaped his ideals. Godbrand brings Isaac the injured demon, now dead, to extract information from it with his necromancy. At another assembly, the generals argue whether to continue their attack on Argeș or move the siege towards Brăila at Carmilla's suggestion. Isaac informs everyone of his findings, believing Alucard is working with a Belmont. Carmilla urges Dracula to keep watch on the Belmont estate, believing it may contain something that could destroy them.

Carmilla tries to convince Hector to create creatures to send to the Belmont house while encouraging Dracula to select Brăila as their next target. Hector reminisces on how Dracula found him in the east of Rhodes and recruited him to raise an army, though Hector asked for a cull of humans rather than a cruel genocide.

Sypha begins researching and Trevor locates several monster-hunting weapons, including the Morning Star whip, while Alucard is left uneasy by the various vampire remains preserved there. Godbrand expresses dissatisfaction with Dracula's plan, believing vampires will be left hungry without human blood to consume, but Dracula rebukes him. Carmilla tells Godbrand that Dracula must take the castle to Brăila, revealing how she killed the vampire who sired her after he became old and mad, deeming Dracula has become the same.

Original release date
October 26, 2018 (2018-10-26)
Trevor fights off the demons as Alucard uses the distance mirror to locate Dracula's castle so Sypha can attempt to complete the locking spell. Dracula moves the castle to Brăila, and most of the vampire generals lead troops across the bridge to attack the town. At Carmilla's behest, Hector reanimates the Bishop and makes him bless the river. Carmilla's troops reveal themselves and bring down the bridge, dropping many of Dracula's soldiers to be destroyed by the now-holy water. Dracula's remaining forces retreat to the castle whilst Carmilla's soldiers cross the river on makeshift bridges. The two armies begin to battle in the castle's main hall, while Carmilla and Hector move elsewhere. Sypha finishes the spell just as Trevor defeats the last of the demons, her struggle against the castle's mechanisms causing the castle to teleport within Brăila, landing in the river and killing most of the two vampire factions. Sypha succeeds, disabling the castle's mechanisms while relocating it above the Belmont library.

October 26, 2018 (2018-10-26)
A flashback depicts Lisa's home in Lupu being raided by the Bishop and his men while Dracula is away, resulting in her arrest to be tried before an inquisition. In the present, Dracula assembles his war council, made up of vampire overlords from across the world, and places human necromancers Hector and Isaac in charge of the war on humanity. The Norse vampire Godbrand objects, believing they should rely on vampires instead of humans for leadership, but Dracula believes Hector and Isaac's hatred of their own kind makes them more trustworthy. As Gresit rebuilds after the battle, Sypha and Trevor see off the other Speakers while Alucard comes to terms with the decision to kill his father. At the castle, Godbrand laments to Hector that their war is fought with no strategy other than wanton destruction. Hector implies that Dracula wants all humans dead no matter the methods used, to Godbrand's disappointment. Dracula teleports the castle to a different location.

Trevor and Sypha reunite with Alucard and ask how to locate Dracula's castle when it can move from place to place. Trevor recommends revisiting his old family estate, as the hold beneath the ruins contains information on the castle and tools for monster-hunting. The vampire mistress Carmilla arrives at the castle and causes further discord among the council by criticizing Dracula's approach and inquiring why he did not turn Lisa into a vampire. While traveling to the Belmont estate, Trevor's party is attacked by Dracula's forces; the group slays all the attackers, save one injured demon who escapes. At the castle, Isaac reminisces on his past, having killed his previous abusive master in a moment that shaped his ideals. Godbrand brings Isaac the injured demon, now dead, to extract information from it with his necromancy. At another assembly, the generals argue whether to continue their attack on Argeș or move the siege towards Brăila at Carmilla's suggestion. Isaac informs everyone of his findings, believing Alucard is working with a Belmont. Carmilla urges Dracula to keep watch on the Belmont estate, believing it may contain something that could destroy them.

Sypha begins researching and Trevor locates several monster-hunting weapons, including the Morning Star whip, while Alucard is left uneasy by the various vampire remains preserved there. Godbrand expresses dissatisfaction with Dracula's plan, believing vampires will be left hungry without human blood to consume, but Dracula rebukes him. Carmilla tells Godbrand that Dracula must take the castle to Brăila, revealing how she killed the vampire who sired her after he became old and mad, deeming Dracula has become the same.

While Trevor and Sypha discuss the situation in Târgoviște, Alucard arrives at Danesti and defends it from the attacking night creatures. Accepting the village leader Greta's request to act as its protector, Alucard also meets Saint Germain. In flashbacks, Germain is shown meeting his lover and with her researching the Infinite Corridor until she went missing. Within the Infinite Corridor, Germain meets an Alchemist who gives him a key to the Corridor so he can find his beloved—so long as he sacrifices everything he ever had, including his morals—also informing him that the only way to truly control the Corridor is to create a Rebis, an artificial body that is both man and woman, infused with two souls. Returning to earth, Germain embarks upon a dark path to collect necessary items and information until being recruited by Varney to aid in resurrecting Dracula, allying with him and the vampire warrior Dragan to orchestrate the attacks on Danesti and other villages. Back in the present, Germain proposes moving the people of Danesti into Dracula's castle for protection, to which Alucard agrees.

Alucard, Greta, and Germain escort the villagers out of Danesti, but are ambushed by night creatures in the forest, although they are able to kill them and lead the people to the castle. While he is creating night creatures, Lenore informs Hector of Carmilla's scheme to dominate the world, confessing that Carmilla used her the same way Dracula used Hector. Back in Târgoviște, Sypha expresses outrage at Zamfir's taking food from the already-starved townsfolk to keep her own people nourished. Despite their differences, Sypha saves Zamfir from a night creature as they cannot afford to lose able fighters—however, the creature covertly plants a magical tracking stone onto the back of Zamfir's neck before being killed. Back in the Magician's city, Isaac and the night creatures move to attack Carmilla's castle, with Isaac ordering them to destroy everyone except for Hector, whom he plans to kill himself.

The tracking stone planted on Zamfir allows Ratko and Varney to discover the Underground Court's location. As they plan their next move, Ratko mocks Varney as being a mere criminal and not a "perfect" vampire like himself, but Varney cryptically suggests that he's not who Ratko thinks he is. Trevor and Sypha finally meet with the Underground Court itself, only to discover it consists of the Royal Family's decaying corpses - and that Zamfir, having deluded herself into believing that the royals are merely sleeping, has been preparing for their "awakening" at the expense of her people's well-being. While Sypha and Zamfir argue, Trevor finds more magic artifacts and realizes they all go together. The Court is then invaded by a horde of night creatures led by Varney and Ratko. Meanwhile, as Alucard and Greta look after the refugees in Dracula's castle, Saint Germain secretly signals for Dragan's hidden army in the forest to march upon the castle, bringing with them a Rebis stitched together from the pieces of multiple corpses.

Trevor and Sypha arrive at Dracula's castle, reunite with Alucard and fight through the invaders. Dragan's forces bring the Rebis to Germain, while Varney gives him Hector's forging sequences to fuse Dracula and Lisa's souls into it. As Germain prepares the ritual, Varney reveals that he was the Alchemist who gave Germain the key before transforming into his true identity, the ancient elemental spirit Death. Forcing Germain to compete the ritual, Death admits that he manipulated Germain to unleash an insane Dracula upon the world again and feast on the endless death it causes. Trevor, Sypha and Alucard kill Dragan and his generals, reaching Germain just as he summons Dracula and Lisa into the Rebis. Trevor uses the Morning Star whip to break the magical barrier. Germain distracts Death long enough for Trevor to destroy the Rebis with holy water and the cross-shaped blade, freeing Dracula and Lisa's souls. However, the resulting explosion kills Germain. Enraged, Death consumes the key to strengthen himself. After telling Sypha that he loves her, Trevor fights against Death alone. He combines the artifacts recovered from the Court with the magic dagger and stabs Death with it, destroying him. The resulting explosion engulfs Trevor.

Two weeks after Trevor's apparent death, Lenore, disillusioned with being a vampire and unwilling to live as Isaac's prisoner, makes her peace with Hector before walking out into the sunlight and dying. At Dracula's castle, the refugees are establishing a permanent settlement under Alucard and Greta's leadership, while Sypha reveals that she is pregnant with Trevor's child. A horse then appears carrying an injured Trevor, who had been transported to safety through the Infinite Corridor by Saint Germain just before the latter died. The weapon Trevor used was originally created by a wizard-turned-blacksmith as part of a "very one-sided" murder-suicide pact with God, hence why it had the power to slay Death. Meanwhile, it is revealed that Dracula and Lisa were successfully resurrected by the ritual and have settled into an inn disguised as commoners. They have no idea how they came back but decide to remain in hiding, allowing their son to live his own life while promising to visit him someday. The series ends with Dracula and Lisa together in bed, where they affirm their mutual love before promising to build their new future, with Dracula suggesting they travel to Whitby, England.
