Alucard's Headquarters

              And so here is one of my audience's favorite episodes of the podcast.  In this episode, my guest, Albeleo , and I take on the task of reviewing every film and television adaptation of the novel, Starship Troopers, by Robert A. Heinlein.  Take a look! 

   Castlevania : The 3D Collection      Hello there, this is Alucard’s YouTube Channel, or Adrian Fahrenheit Tepes, and here is another episode of Castlevania Lore.  Now there is a potential revival of Castlevania in this year, the 40th Anniversary Year of the franchise, with the original game in the series being released on September 26, 1986 for the Nintendo Famicom.  There has been the announcement of a new Castlevania game known as Belmont’s Curse, developed by Evil Empire, who also previously developed Dead Cells.  The art style being recognizable, and it being great that this game is released, there is yet another aspect of the franchise to consider : What about the games that have not been remastered yet?  Those games are primarily the 3D games in the series, hence we will be taking a look at what we could expect or hope for with an upcoming remastered collection?  This is what we will speculate on here.  To begin, let’s go o...

    Did a Castlevania Game Get Released on Easter?      Actually no, a Castlevania game did not get released on Easter.  There are other Castlevania games released on Holidays, much less religious holidays, but these did not include Easter.  Castlevania : Curse of Darkness was released initially in North America on November 1, 2005, also the night after Halloween or the holiday of All Saints' Day observed by the Roman Catholic Church.  Super Castlevania IV was released on Halloween of 1991, and Castlevania : Bloodlines , the lowest-selling Castlevania game, was released on St. Patrick's Day of 1994.  However, when you get into the fictional settings of the Castlevania games themselves, yes, the original Castlevania game occurs on the Night Before Easter, or Easter Eve, where Dark Cultists performed a ritual to resurrect  Dracula , who had been killed 100 years prior by Christopher Belmont during Castlevania : Belmont's Revenge....

       And so, with the event of a new Castlevania game being set for release later in 2026, what better time was it to talk about the biggest plot Twists in the Castlevania game series !  And so, there is a video form of the greatest plot twists in Castlevania over on my YouTube Channel !  The written version is also available here on my blog if you prefer reading or want a slightly different version of the article, it's available there as well. In short, I want to wish you a wonderful day and as I say in conclusion, "Until We Meet Again, Farewell". 

       Alright, I have been a bit late at blogging this, but I was glad to hear the news on Valentine's Day that there would be a new official Castlevania game entitled Castlevania : Belmont's Curse .  This new official game, after a time of few official Castlevania games from Konami but Castlevania game mods instead, will be a welcome change.  While Konami will be the publisher, the game will be outsourced to Evil Empire for development.  Evil Empire being the Studio behind Dead Cells and the Castlevania Themed mod for Dead Cells .        Belmont's Curse will be set 20 years after Castlevania III : Dracula's Curse , and will allegedly feature someone named Sonia Belmont as the daughter of Trevor Belmont .  Sonia Belmont was a character whom you played as in the game of Castlevania Legends for the Nintendo Gameboy .  She was also meant to be included as a playable character along with her distant descendant, Vict...

  Castlevania : The 10 Biggest Plot Twists     Castlevania Games don’t exactly have a plot, right?  Well, in the long series of games there have been various degrees of revelation with the progress of the software and the hardware through which the games were developed and published under.  Here in this video, we will be talking about the most brutal plot twists throughout the Castlevania Game Series and it’s long run, even including the Lords of Shadow “reboot” or alternate universe.  This series is a long running series from its origins with the original Castlevania being released in 1986 with Simon Belmont setting out to destroy Count Dracula with his whip known as the “Vampire Killer”, all the way up through the NES and Gameboy Titles through obscure PCs made by game companies, into the 3rd dimension with Nintendo 64 and Playstation 2, and followed by the Nintendo DS titles and the Lords of Shadow alternate universe which followed.  This episode wi...
