You are right, but I am to. Castlevania was inspired by the universal studios monsters. Guess who really jump started that (after Lon Chaney)Bela Lugosi's Dracula. Dracula was no where near as popular before that movie. And without that, there would be no Castlevania. But with Bram Stoker, there would be no movie. So it really is thanks to both of them, as well as many more people.
