We open up the intro on a dark, eerie night, looking over a church whereat a ceremony is about to begin. A young woman has been taken captive by soldiers who wish to call upon evil to overtake the Earth. She is to be sacrificed, her blood used as a symbol of their desire--their wanting of Count Dracula to return.

    

    

Without mercy, one of soldiers plunges his sword through her chest, depriving her of life. Their wish has been answered, as Dracula rises out of his coffin, returning to life. Conscious, he transforms himself into a bat and flies off to the one place you'd expect--Castlevania!

    

Dracula's castle stands brooding, welcoming him back to his monstrous abode. His castle beckons those who wish to vanquish him. Richter Belmont's mission begins.
