Topic: ...Have you ever had nightmares about Castlevania?

[Spooniest]

I did...don't want to monopolize out of the gate, but CV2, flame whip, burned hands...etc. Creepier ones too. Lots of nightmares in my lifetime...deviated septum, sleep apnea, etc.

You?

Waking up from a dream about a new Castlevania can be pretty nightmarish.

Nope, never nightmares about video games. Interestingly enough I had a premonition about OOE, in a dream, years before it came out, during the time AoS was released.

Oooh, that sounds interesting.  How did it play out?

Also, I don't recall any nightmares about Castlevania.  Then again, I tend to forget most of my dreams.

Never about Castlevania, but a fair few about Dead Island, but they all ended with me becoming aware of the fact that I was in a video game and turning it to my advantage. Then I was just playing Dead Island in my sleep.

It's not much of a nightmare, but I recently dreamt about AoS/DoS that felt exactly like JoJo.

Nope. Never had a nightmare of Castlevania. Pretty hard to since it's a series I love to death. I only ever had good dreams of CV. One in particular was seeing in action, a 2.5D CV game in the style of Super Castlevania IV. Conan Simon never looked more badass and the stage I witnessed never looked more amazing

I never had a nightmare about Castlevania.
Whenever I dream that I'm in Castlevania, I'm a badass vampire hunter.

It's hard to explain.. Basically I saw a glimpse of Wygol Village with Shanoa in it for about 3 seconds. Shanoa was garbed in white (a bit like Soma's Sprite) but it was clearly a woman with long black hair. I can still remember the music, it was similar to tracks I've heard between the AoS/ PoR era, but not quite the same. At first I thought the stage was part of the castle, with vines growing around the walls. Only years later when playing OOE did I have a massive Déjà Vu/ flashback and realise that. I stil remember waking up with a splitting headache after having that dream.

I've had plenty of Castlevania based dreams, often with Alucard involved, but never nightmares.

I once had a dream about being brought by two figures in black (Guns pointed to my back) and being forced to test play a Castlevania V/5 they made
(presumably an independent team got copyright of CV brand). 
First stage was at the top of a train, player (a Belmont) swings his whip to attach on the train and climbed with a backflip and 3-D animation in Dracula X Chronicles style.
Game was a bit of mixture of both Rondo of Blood and Ecclessia with a mixture of weakened collecting/leveling element and strengthened stage-based structure , Shaft and Balowe was Dracula's left and right arms, at the middle of adventure progress inside the Castle they summoned DXC winged dragon, semi-Dogether semi-peeping big creature and a semi-Final Guard headless heavy-armored guardian before fight with them.
At the deeper area of the underground player can ride on a defeated (but not died) semi-Golem semi-wolf creature to break through a path then you can beat any enemy on your sight with the mighty power of Golem-wolf in a fairly long time or you can kill the creature for far more experience bonus but must pass through a long and dangerous lava area by horned skills.
A very long Dracula stage. Then I was ordered (Guns pointed to my back again) to not to be spoiled more and being kicked out of the dark underground computer room where they were developing their games. After a few moments the dream ends.

Aceearly1993@ Somebody should have told those two gun-totting individuals that you'd be willing to play the game anyways since it's Castlevania, lol.

[Aceearly1993]

@X
Yes. If I encountered similar situation in real world I'll test play the games anyway. No matter how creepy it would be.

Ooohhhh... send some Allie over here! ♥

I'll try!   Of course, I'll have to make sure that it's only original timeline Alucard that gets sent, and not Trevorcard, as I have had dreams involving him as well.
