Topic: Scariest Castlevania songs

[shelverton.]

Why oh why was "Monster Dance" never used in a CV again? It's a little short maybe, but they could extend it and use it in some kickass graveyeard/swamp level or something... It always made me feel very uneasy when I was little, but in a good way.

(Off topic) Speaking of SQ; Konami should've used "Silence before daylight" in the town in Order of Ecclesia... I can't believe they missed a perfect opportunity like that...

I agree!  I was really hoping I'd hear it. x(

Sotn's Door to the abyss.... I'm surprised people aren't saying this one.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdtcJnW5Qaw&feature=related  Abandoned pit also...

It's these two songs that showcase WHY i love sotn's music..So much emotion and feeling...it convicts emotions.

Dracula rises from grave SCIV (great soundtrack)

This. I love that song.
Although, honestly, Metroid always did a better job of scaring me than CV.

I'd say the spookiest tune for me is in SCV4's intro story. play that tune in a room with no lights on.

In Castlevania IV, the waterfall segment. I don't know if I'm alone on this one but, that song is scary to me. Its really damn eerie.

[X]

The tune at the waterfall segment fit the environment extremely well; Silent and alone. It's as if every single song was deliberately made to express the stage in which they were featured.

Ive always found the start menu/title (last part of Black Mass)  from CV Chronicles creepy.

[Wallachia]

It's always fun reading how most of us notice and appreciate those magical little nuances in Super CV4, and it's music. It's hard to find other games that have a mood and tone like that. I feel like Super Metroid on SNES had a mood like that. Any other games??

[Wallachia]

Oh, and.. The Discolored Wall, from CV Bloodlines is surprisingly disturbing..

[X]

That's the tune that played in the leaning tower of Pisa stage, wasn't it?

-X

[Wallachia]

yes

Oh, and.. The Discolored Wall, from CV Bloodlines is surprisingly disturbing..

That song definitely fit the CV atmosphere of Bloodlines, dark, brooding, and foreboding.
