Go To

Tropes for this episode include:

  • Acid Attack: Several of the night creatures encountered by Alucard and the villagers spit green acid.
  • Call-Back:
    • Alucard bonds with Greta by telling her what happened with Sumi and Taka.
      • As they return to Castlevania, he bows and gestures for Greta to enter almost identically to how Dracula welcomed Lisa to his laboratory way back in the first episode.
    • Trevor realizes that like Gresit, there should be an underground network of catacombs like where he found Sypha.
    • When Lenore expresses her concerns about Carmilla's plans, and how her ambitions were greater than what she'd previously been told, Hector notes it's similar to how Dracula had lied to him in much the same way, calling back to how Lenore had spelled that out to Hector last season.
  • Every One Has Standards: Hector might be summoning forth the tormented souls of Hell to create monsters out of human corpses, but he doesn't see it as too much to be considerate of the creatures he's creating. Hector ends up berating the vampires that brought in a corpse for leaving an arrow embedded in its eye, asking how they would react to coming back to life with it jammed in their eye socket.
  • Eye Scream: A dead villager has an arrow in his eye. Hector pulls it out before he forges him into a monster.
  • Noodle Incident: Greta once courted a man and a woman at the same time, the man's wife eventually going at her with a pitchfork.
  • The Only One Allowed to Defeat You: Isaac tells all of his monsters to kill everything in Carmilla's palace except Hector. He wants him for himself.
  • Pummeling the Corpse: After Greta and Alucard kill off some night creatures, some of the villagers take to stabbing its corpse repeatedly, venting the frustrations on it.
  • Shoot the Dog: A puppy sadly gets killed and eaten by a monster. It gets killed back in return.
  • Villains Act, Heroes React: Sypha notices that she and Trevor have just been reacting to every catastrophe around them.
