Haunted Castle is a Castlevania ( tasvideos.org/GameGroups/27 ) game released in arcades in 1988. This time, Dracula has kidnapped Simon Belmont's wife, and it's up to him to save her. This game is also infamous for being extremely difficult, especially on version M, where Simon can lose half of his health when getting hit by certain enemies or projectiles (that is, the majority of them) on default settings, whilst only giving the player one life.
zggzdydp ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/z... ) plays on Version K, which has a more manageable difficulty (mainly enemies not hitting like tanks), allowing for several damage boosts, and rescues Simon's wife in record time. - Hry

Poor guy has to hold it in all the way to Dracula's castle for the only working toilet.
😂😂😂
Seeing Simon wielding a sword, a boomerang and a bomb always feels like a parody material.
Can't believe this game can be beaten in 10 minutes mark.
10:30 Tragically, Dracula's T-posing was not enough to assert dominance over the Belmont.
The game that surprised me when I found out theres more than stage 1.
Apparently theres an entire game to this difficult adventure.
0:30 man the Yellow Devil was really phoning it in here
Final Stage BGM: Can't Wait Until the Night
Simon: Yeah We fight at Daytime!!!
Simon's Quest (for the bathroom)
I dont get it
@@paperwraps4356 this game is crap
@elsegundomejorioyo Actually, it jokes about Simon’s walk cycle, but you do you
Mom I want castlevania.
Mom: You have castlevania at home.
Castlevania at home
Castlevania at arcade*
I think the stopwatch might be overpowered.
Boy are the enemies gentle in this version. I remember the health bar being basically for show.
Me encanto el TAS, muchas gracias, soy fan de tus videos❤🎉
Always interested seeing this one. Despite looking and playing like a cheap bootleg as well as being named Haunted Castle, it's an official Castlevania game alright.
Tf do you mean, you could say Castlevania on NES is a bootleg of this.
@MilkerMurphy this was released after the first NES Castlevania (released in Japan in 1986) in 1987
Some of its songs actually reappear in the GBA and DS Castlevania games. Stage 5’s theme is in Dawn of Sorrow, for example.
OMG i am a huge haunted castle fan, i play this game a lot lately and this TAS really impressed me. Even if i already know this game is very bad programmed there were things i didn't expect
I remember this being a pretty jank entry in the series. But it's the game that gave us _"Cross Your Heart",_ so it gets a pass in my book.
You have great taste in music.
This game has some surprisingly solid tunes and I love how most of them reappeared in the GBA and DS games
You can tell this game drew healthy inspirations from Castlevania.
Haunted Castle is a Castlevania game. It's just not a part of the "main" series.
Note the music, most of which is used in other Castlevania games-- Stage 1 (can't remember the actual name), Bloody Tears, Don't Wait Until Night (later used as part of Julius' theme), Stage 5 (again, can't remember the actual name), etc.
@@BrandyBrandalia stage 1, "cross your heart" came from this game
Didn't even get to see the 2nd boss :(
That obscure and hard Castlevania game, I've played the M version 4 years ago on MAME for the the first time a few times, but never finished it, It requires a lot of patience, maybe another time, Great TAS!
I like how many commenters see this for what it is: A Subpar Castlevania outing; though some seem a little confused:
It really did happen! And it stank!
Subpar Castlevania I. Only thing it's got going for it is the soundtrack, it looks miserable to play and the pixel art misses the mark a few too many times.
One of the very few CV games where you DON'T fight Death.
I love this classic. Amazing music including the best version of bloody tears IMO. Perfect choice for halloween 🎃
We have castlevania at home:
I’m aware that this is an official castlevania game
The time you're wishing for Castlevania at home.
Not even at home lmao this is an arcade game, unless you own a personal cabinet

It takes a brave man to fight evil while not wearing pants💪
So many people seem to not know this is a real and Official Official castlevania game 😂
What do you mean Bloody Tears originated not in CV2, but in this game??
EDIT: Nevermind, looks like this game was released a few months after CV2
Oh yea, is Miguel Belmon - T of Castlevinia
What happened at 4:22?
That's the harpy skip. So normally in that other area you're supposed to beat two harpies. The stopwatch is used to prevent them from spawning at all and the game simply checks if there's no harpies and lets Simon through.
poggerssa
A castlevania game, huh.
Esse foi o primeiro castlevania?
No, it came out in 1987, about a year after the release of the first Castlevania in Japan in 1986
why do flea men have to be in every one of these games
Gotta put 'em somewhere
I hate flea men >:(
Those little jerks can't wait to annoy the Belmonts.
Stop hurting my ear(s) by screaming at me that one boss that screams after getting defeated that i don't know the name of
why is the castle haunted tho ):
Awful Castlevania but really good music…
Weird they didn't get sued for using bloody tears.
If you're serious, this is an arcade Castlevania game. It's just called Haunted Castle
Also weird Konami didn’t get sued for using Basement Melody and Don’t Wait Until Night.
I had no idea that they allowed a total ripoff of castlevania to exist 😂
Actually it is a Castlevania game, it's just called Haunted Castle.
Konami aren't allowed to "ripoff" themselves?
Japanese name for this game is completely same as NES Castlevania JP, as well as SNES Super Castlevania IV JP. I don't know what was in their mind, but that would be confusing as heck.
