Reinhardt's Endings
These are abbreviated endings. For the more complete ending scenes, click here to go to the Castlevania 64 ending page.
Good Ending: Reinhardt finishes off Dracula's servant and finds that Malus was Dracula all along; they battle atop a tower before Dracula reveals his true form. After defeating Drago in the desert realm, Reinhardt is transported to a mountain cliff where he watches Castlevania collapse into the ocean. Leaves start to fall all around him as he ponders the preceding events. His grief turns to joy as Rosa materializes in front of him, free from Dracula's curse.
"Will this struggle against Dracula never end?" Reinhardt wonders. His grief turns to wonderment as rose petals begin to fall from the sky, followed by the rose from which they found sanctity. Miraculously, it signals the appearance of Rosa, free from the curse.
Reinhardt regrets that the battle is eternal--that Dracula will continue to return as long as there is evil in people's hearts. As long as they have love, Reinhardt consoles, they'll find a way to overcome it. The two then stare at the remains of the fallen castle as the credits begin to roll.
Bad Ending: After defeating Dracula's servant, the imposter has some cryptic words that serve to confuse Reinhardt. Disregarding those words, Reinhardt surveys the area.
Malus, surprisingly, appears before him. Reinhardt is happy to see the boy safe. "Is Dracula Dead?" the boy asks in eerie tone; Reinhardt, having appeased Malus, leads the youth out of the castle.
As the two head home on horseback, Reinhardt repeats the words that are now so famous: As long as there is evil in the world, someone will rise up to face it. He even implies that Malus could be that next hero, not knowing the truth. Of course, the words are lost on Malus, as his eyes glow red, signaling that he, Dracula, still lives.
