Castlevania Level 1
The first level of the original Castlevania has been repeated many times, in many
cases having the same structure and secrets too. Be wary of it in Castlevania Chronicles - the usual secret spot is filled with hunchback men. The real one is located
on the wall across from it.

Other First Level Similarties

Both Symphony of the Night and Aria of Sorrow have similar structures to the original
Castlevania level as well - an area filled with zombies, a small underground water
area with fishmen, and a walk back upstairs. Symphony even has the hidden meat. However,
most of the staircases from the original are gone.

Bloody Tears
There's a song named Bloody Tears (that plays in level 3 of Haunted Castle, where that
portrait is), and there are plenty of statues that drip blood, forming red skeletons
when they hit the ground.
|
Atlantis Ruins
It hasn't quite made sense for Atlantis to show up underneath the ruins of Dracula's castle,
but I guess it shows some imagination on Konami's part. Note that in Bloodlines, you're
actually at the Atlantis Ruins.
|
Pirate Ships
Fighting on a pirate ship always seemed a little odd to me - although these are ghost
ships, and it's less nonsenseical than fighting in Atlantis. In Aria of Sorrow, the boat is sunken in
the Forbidden Area.
|
Stairway to Dracula's Chamber
The stairs to Dracula's Chamber are usually covered in fog, conveninetly by the moon
and the clock tower. Bloodlines' stairs are reveresed, however.
