Being perhaps the most eerie and atmospheric game in the series, the game didn't try to amp up the humor, but it still had some chuck worthy moments:


  • The first boss, the Giant Skeleton, is very expressive. When you first beat it, it will throw a tantrum like a little kid and run off. When he summons his smaller skeleton minions, he motions an "Up, up!" gesture that is pretty comical, coming from a menacing boss.
  • The way our heroes (especially the big badass Reinhardt) retreat and are startled by the elderly Vampire Hunter Charlie Vincent menacingly approaching them holding a crucifix aloft makes for quite the amusing picture.
  • The aforementioned moment followed by Vincent calling you a villager and telling you to scram. Cue the two vampire hunters squabbling about who is the most qualified to exterminate Dracula and his minions.
  • In Castlevania 64, when you have to blow up a damaged wall as Carrie, after finally acquiring the necessary items, you set up the explosive and run. Cue an impressively large explosions, which cuts to... 12 year old Carrie goddamned Fernandez watching the explosion from around the corner with her hands at her back in a cutesy pose and generally behaving as if she was watching fireworks.
  • When you meet Renon, the demonic merchant with the face of Jean Reno, he politely introduces himself to you. He doesn't hide his nature, explaining himself thus: "It is shameful for a demon to be working, but one needs gold even in Hell these days."
  • In a bit of darker humor, near the end of the game if you spent a certain quantity of money with Renon the demonic merchant, you must fight him. However, if you don't spend enough money with Renon, he still shows up, only to curtly say his goodbyes. He mentions an impending World War, and calls the death of millions "a great business opportunity".
