Overview
Haunted Castle is a 1987 platform game developed and published by Konami for arcades. It is the second arcade game in the Castlevania franchise, following VS. Castlevania, an arcade port of the original 1986 NES video game released in North America. Unlike the previous arcade title in the franchise, Haunted Castle is not a direct port of an existing console game, but a newly-developed arcade game running on a custom JAMMA-based board. The game has the player controlling Simon Belmont, who embarks on a journey to save his wife Selena from the clutches of Dracula.
A remake of Haunted Castle, Haunted Castle Revisited, was released in 2024 as part of the Castlevania Dominus Collection compilation.
