Poison Lake

Steps are few and far between
At Poison Lake

Platforms move left and right
As well as up and down

I try not to fall off of them
Seeing that I could meet my end in the water

Ravens, bats, frogs, and other creatures give chase
While some ignore me
Instead, just taking in the night
And leaving me alone
As I continue on my journey through the night

The bridges are designed weirdly
But I'll cross them either way
My life depends on it

In the Caverns

In the caverns
Water drips from above
And rocks and stones crash down

In the caverns
Bats fly harmlessly by
Yet mud men arrive
Whipping away at them
It takes a lot of energy to bring one of them down

Making my way down into the caverns
I spy a passage way
Walking through it, I notice more weapons for my
arsenal
All free for the taking

Moving on
I continue to fight
As well as be cautious
In the caverns

Up the Waterfall

From down here
To all the way up there
This will be quite a test for me
A test of stamina and endurance
As I climb up the waterfall

Up the waterfall
I notice precarious platforms, stone rings,
and other decrepit structures

Climbing up the waterfall
While fading in and out of the water
And getting soaked
The viper swarms and dead knights
are on attack everywhere
I know this won't be easy

Taking my time
One by one
I fight and outwit them all

I reach the top of the waterfall

I take a breather
And then continue on

Across the Moat

Across the moat
The water gently moves along
Yet evil mermen jump out of the water
Ready to attack me

Stones and other foundations fall from above
I have to be on my guard
As I make my way across the moat
As it seems that anything can attack me from
anywhere and everywhere
From small things to large things
To almost anything

Orphic Vipers

Climbing up from the moat
Water fills the entire solid structure completely

Standing on a platform
The orphic vipers make their prescence known
One shoots out 3 light green fireballs from its breath
While the other one shoots out a purple flame from
its breath
They bob and weave as well

Flailing away with my whip and throwing my weapons
It takes time to take down the orphic vipers
But after some time
I'm successful

As they die
I realized I survived
Survived through the moat
And all of its obstacles

Floating Eye

IA floating eye flies and drifts above
crying bloody tears
While having a mind of its own

Seeing me
It won't hesitate to chase me
Or attack me

Passing it by
It can't keep up with me
So it just continues on
On its own way
Away from me

Evil Mermen in the Water

IIn the water
Evil mermen in the water attack me
with their aquatic spit
While I hurl axes and holy water down
on them

However
I've got it made
I've got the advantage
They don't like to leave the water
And walk on the land
As I can run by them

The evil mermen in the water are angry
that I'm still alive
That I survived
But I'm moving on
Traveling carefully by
Ces't La Vie
That's life
Au Revoir

The Outer Keep (Spinning Tales)

Throughout the Outer Keep
Skeleton knights walk back and forth
Brandishing swords
Regular skeletons are ready to attack with
bone-like whips
Some skeletons hang while trying to claw and
attack with their hands
Weird demons shoot out of the walls to attack
Skulls look left and right
As well as right to left
Monitoring what goes on
In the outer keep

Attacking the many skeletons and demons
I defeat them all
I jump on the trick floors
And then quickly jump off
So I don't fall

Moving on
I come upon a chamber

Suddenly, the room starts to turn and move
Looking around, I realize I could be dead soon
As spikes will soon make up the floor

Luckily
I see a stone ring
I wrap my whip around the ring
Hang on for a few seconds
Then drop down on a platform below my feet

After my first trial
I realize that I must face a second trial

So I wrap my whip around the ring
And just wait

A bridge begins to form
Stone by stone
Once it stops forming
I swing back and forth on my whip to gain
momentum
With enough momentum
I make it on to the newly formed bridge

Walking along the newly formed bridge
I'm eager to leave this room behind

Falling for a bit
I land
And I continue along
Battling foes while the walls circle and turn
I don't know what kind of sinister magic is on
display here
But regardless I continue on

Skeletons fall from the ceiling
But I defeat them easily

In the final part of the outer keep
Platforms move up and only up
I pick my path carefully
Being careful of the spikes above and below
Fighting and surviving
The Outer Keep definitely had it in for me
But I survived
I succeeded
And the Outer Keep failed

At the Front Door to Dracula's Castle

Considering all that I've gone through
All that I've had to do
And the amount of time that it has taken me
Battling foes and many elements outside
Here I am
At the front door to Dracula's castle
At long last

Fighting outside for the longest time
I'm glad to be indoors
It's been well worth the trouble to get here

Circle of Coffins

A sight for my eyes
In the higher level of the haunted halls
I notice coffins circling around
Cursed by and with dark magic
Eight of them to be precise

Around and around they go
They're almost hypnotizing me
With their eerie dance
And opening and shutting synchronicity

Dancing Spectres and Haunted Furniture

In the higher level of the haunted halls
Dancing spectres dance
While haunted furniture comes to life

Fighting, running, and jumping the best I can
I try to make my way past
Yet the dancing spectres and haunted furniture
seem to have other ideas

The dancing spectres dance, drift, and fly all around me
While the haunted furniture just chases after me
I can tell they all want to attack me

Fighting them all the best I can
I make a wonderful stand
As the dancing spectres disappear
And the haunted furniture is destroyed

After all that
I'm on my own again
At last

The Last Tango in Transylvania (Shall We Dance)

Reaching the end of the higher level of the haunted halls
This part of the castle certainly wasn't easy
But I survived
I'm still alive

Reaching the end
I notice 2 statues and 2 columns

Without a second gone by
I see a couple dance
Dancing around the area

Shall we dance
Sure, why not

They notice me
And charge toward me
With their swords
Whip at the ready
I run and jump around
While attacking

The dancing couple continues to dance
Even charging at me with their swords again
Until at long last
With a final strike from my whip
I separate the couple at last

That certainly was the last tango in Transylvania
At least in my mind

Shall we dance
Probably not

The First Haunted Hall

Through the first haunted hall
Ghostly hounds prowl and zombies stalk
with their arms in the air
Statues on display in the first haunted hall
serve a purpose
What that is
I have no idea

Large columns are decorated with tattered
red cloth
Axe men remain stationary
While attacking as well

Swinging and Riding on the Chandeliers

Way up here
There's only one way to get across
And that's swinging and riding on the chandeliers

The chandeliers creak and swing
But I jump lightly and carefully
From one to another

Bats may try to attack me
But I'm ready for them

Swinging and riding on the chandeliers
It wasn't easy
But I made it
I made it safe and sound
To where I need to go

The Second Haunted Hall

Through the seconds haunted hall
I'm confronted by dapper dressed vampires
As well as elegantly dressed vampiresses
Who'd love nothing more than to suck me dry
Dry of my blood

Small chandeliers wait to fall on top of me
While supernatural energy persists in following
Though the tables elegantly dressed in white
tablecloth are a sight to see

The Third Haunted Hall

Through the third haunted hall
Many different skeletons are on display
And ready to attack

Regular skeletons
Bone chucking skeletons
Skeleton knights with swords
Skeletons with bone-like whips
And the toughest one of all
The red skeleton

Outside the windows
Strange lighting is going on out there
While inside
The black curtains and tapestries are ripped
and torn beautifully

The Hounds Howl at Night

On nights like this
The hounds howl at night

Evil is all around
It's even spread across the countryside
Even the innocent and pure aren't even safe
from it

The evil one has his army ready
Ready to strike
And ready to bring many to their knees
As well as breaking their will
Life isn't as grand
Living here it seems

The Hounds Howl at Night (Reprise)

The hounds howl at night
Because evil is here
The hounds howl at night
For the terror that will soon begin
The hounds howl at night
For the blackness of the night
The hounds howl at night
For their love of the crescent moon
Even though it's shrouded in fog

Dracula's Library

In Dracula's Library
Statued busts are on display
And books are all over the place
Some are regular size
Some almost as big as me
Some sit silently on the shelves
Some twitch eerily on the shelves
Some are enchanted
As they float in the air
Waiting for me to make a wrong move
Waiting to fly at me
Waiting to attack me

Braving through
Dracula's knights and gargoyles await to do
battle with me
Fighting and trading blows
I'm the one left standing

Jumping on huge enchanted books
I make my way out of Dracula's Library
Awaiting what will be waiting for me next

Ghosts

Ghosts appear out of thin air
Appearing here and there
Or just about anywhere

They know what I'm fighting for
And they don't like it
So as it is
As I continue to move along
They give chase
Waiting and wanting to attack me
As they close in from all around
Or just to creep me out
And rattle my nerves
And to give me, what they think I deserve

Axe Men

The Axe men are certainly the strongest knights
I've certainly faced
Up to this point
In this evil place

Moving left to right
But never stationary
They attack without abandon

Their axes that they throw are like boomerangs
Going out and coming back
Their armor is the strongest of all the knights

Patience will be a virtue
If I'm to defeat many of them
And I know
That won't be easy

Dracula's Art Gallery

In Dracula's Art Gallery
Paintings are hung on the wall
While some sit on the many floors
Many are of Dracula's mother
Which give me dirty looks
And give me the creeps
While some are of skulls and bones
Crossbows and other weaponry are also
hung for display
Statues of humans are frozen in their pose
of screaming out
Suits of armor are on display in the background
And dragon statues drop heavy orbs if I draw near

On the lower levels of Dracula's Art Gallery
Something under the rug gives chase
And surely wants to get past me

Throughout Dracula's Art Gallery
I must move carefully
To steer clear of any more danger

Sir Grakul

Sir Grakul has his decorated axe, sword, and shield
And he's not afraid to do battle with me

Trying to figure out his attacks
He throws his axe like a boomerang
From a short, as well as long distance
He's also not afraid to strike his axe down to the ground
Letting flames travel along the ground
As they move left and right

Getting my attacks in
When I can
The tide of the battle surely seems to be going my way

Unfortunately
Sir Grakul isn't ready to give up

At long last
His axe shatters
But he unsheathes his sword
Ready to finish me off

Being patient
I continue to attack
Until at long last
His armor and spirit are destroyed

Getting to take a deep breath
The remains of Sir Grakul lie at my feet
Never to bother me again

The Dungeon

In the dungeon
Spiked traps fall in intervals from above
Poison also drips from above
Chains and dead prisoner's bones rattle
throughout
Dirty and diseased water in these foundations
run along
Swords and sharp objects fall from above as I walk
into their range
Into their sights
On to their path
Stone bridges fall apart or disappear as I run and jump across
Skeletons and skulls pile up in the background
Making not at all a sounds
While bricks in the wall are rotten and moldy
Coffins are old and almost worn

Making my way past them is a challenge in the least
But surviving them all
And moving toward the east
There's satisfaction in it all

The Monster

Meeting face to face with the monster
He hasn't exactly left the lab
But I can tell he's not in a good mood
to see me
As he wants to do battle with me

Silently and slowly walking his way towards me
He throws potions from his jacket
A green potion that explodes into fireballs
falling from above
Ready and wanting to rain down on me
A pink potion that causes a flame to cover a small
part of the area
And a white potion that creates a doppelganger to
mimic his own actions

Using fancy footwork
And attacking when I can
I turn the tide of the battle in my favor

With one final blow
Potions break, crack, leak, and explode all over
the monster
Bringing him down
He's defeated
And once again
There's solace for me

The Makeshift Lab

Looking around the makeshift lab
There's a table with potions on it
Beakers, flasks, and test tubes
While above them
A shelf of books sit and lie neatly arranged
With a dead prisoner's bones rattling
And chains hanging down

The Monster Has Left the Lab

The monster has left the lab
Not aware of what will await him outside
Bulky and menacing
He's ready to wreak havoc
Or even destroy things

He doesn't understand the world
And the world doesn't understand him
But the monster is alive
The monster is free
And for the time being
That's all he wants
That's all he cares about
There's certainly nothing that's going to stop him
For the time being at least

The Treasury

In the treasury
Dracula has no problem showing me how rich he is
As gold and gold coins lay strewn and splattered everywhere
Treasure chests are overfilled as the tops of the chests
won't and can't be shut or closed
Even the ripped tapestries are glittering

The air is thick with ghosts
And I'm doing my best
Trying not to breathe them in

Skeletons have no problem fitting in around here
As they're stained gold
With help from Dracula's magic

Moving along
The floor is absolutely shot
As when I step in some places
A hole forms in the floor
But I do my best to get past
Crossing a bridge full of gold pots is even more precarious
Jumping and running
The pots fall apart from the weight of me

In the next area
Powerful wind traps me for a few seconds here and there
How it's possible
I have no idea
But it must be the magic of Dracula

Besides gold
It seems that other forms and parts of jewelry
are well seen as well
In the treasury

Climbing up steps
Battling enemies
And taking all the bags of gold I can
The treasury is something else entirely
A wonder to behold
At least to me

Zapf Bat

The Zapf Bat forms in front of me
In front of my own eyes
As gold coins from the floor drift up
to make its shape

I'm ready to attack
And so is the Zapf Bat

Whipping and running
The Zapf Bat flaps its wings in the air
While trying to rain down gold coins on me

After enough attacking
The Zapf Bat breaks up into 3 smaller versions
of itself

They flap after me
And I stand my ground
Continuing to attack

One by one
I deliver the 3 of them a death blow
And they dissolve in front of my eyes

A light flashes
Telling me the battle's over
And that I've succeeded once more, once again
In defeating evil
And making sure that good would prevail
Once more
Once again

Skeleton Knight

A skeleton knight is clad in gold armor
And carries a sword
He's willing to attack if neccesary
He's not scared to fight
He's a master of swordplay
Attacking in many ways with a sword
He has nerves of steel
And he would love nothing better
Than to give me something painful to feel

Racing Against the Gear Wheel

Racing against the gear wheel
I know I'm going to have to run and climb like
the wind
While picking my battles carefully
Because I know I'll be dead
Just from one touch of the gear wheel

And so I run
Climbing up steps that crumble and fall
from one step by me
The gear wheel isn't that far behind
I attack who I can
But I don't dawdle or hang around
Because the gear wheel is coming for me
And I have no plans to die right here
No plans to die tonight

Running, climbing and racing as fast as I can
To be far ahead of the gear wheel and away from it
for good
It wasn't easy
Not with Dracula's minions about
But I persevered
And it won't bother me again
Not for the rest of the way

Crossing the Bridge Unto Dracula's Property

Crossing the bridge unto Dracula's property
Crossing this bridge of crumbly blocks
I jump and run across the closing drawbridge
And there's no turning back now
Not with what's waiting ahead for me

Village in Flames

The dark forces are at work
Even I can sense dark magic being cast
As the village I've always known
Is now in flames

Flames grow small
While some grow big
Destruction lies everywhere

Clutching my weapon
The skeletons walk and lumber around tonight
Ready for a fight
I'm ready for them
And they're ready for me

Going from offense to defense
And vice versa
I flail away with my whip
Destroying the ones who have wreaked havoc
in this village
Turning it into a village of flames

Climbing up crumbling buildings
And running upstairs
I still look out through the openings
See the fire and flames continue
As they did when they first started

A ram-like beast gives chase from behind me
While zombies of the undead raise up their arms
and walk in front of me

Using my weapons and abilities the best way I can
I make a wonderful escape
Jumping over a pit
While the beast falls down and dies

The zombies still walk and stalk
With their arms in the air
Though they look ridiculous doing it

I've survived so far tonight
Tonight in this village of flames
Though I hope someday
When the evil that has plagued the land
has vanished
That this village will return to its former glory
Wouldn't that be a wonderful story
Wouldn't that be a true time of happiness

Poltergeist King

I'm one in a million chosen
Chosen for this honor
This responsibility

In front of the Poltergeist King now
He blesses me
While giving me the tried and true tools
of the trade
The Battle Axe and Mystic Vampire Killer Whip

He knows that the land and peace and serenity
that many people want is in my hands

He knows I'm the only one
The only one who can get this job done
Blessing me for the final time
And giving me some final words of encouragement

I leave the Poltergeist King
Walking through the exit door of his chamber
And into a terror filled night
The night for me has just begun

Curse of the White Candle

Striking a white candle
I can tell that was a mistake
As I'm not cursed

Transporting me away into a chamber
Where the undead would love nothing
more than to see me dead
I attack as fast as I can
Defeating zombies and spirits left and right
I can only hope to survive
To be alright
As I continue on my way
Into the night

After the undead have become dead once
more
I'm transported to where I was before
The white candle is still there
Burning brightly
However this time around
It'll be ignored
As I continue on my way
Into the night

White Candle Room

Happening upon a white candle room
I make sure not to strike any of them
As they'll take me to a place I don't want to go
And a fate I wish not to see

Walking by them
One by one
They've been enchanted by the dark magic of
Dracula no doubt

The white candles are elegant and pretty
While they've been cursed by evil
As well as the undead

Passing them by
One by one
I see the light leading into the next room
Leading me away from the white candle room
The white candles and their certain doom

Outside Dracula's Castle

Outside Dracula's Castle
I can see I'm still so far away from it
I'm still so far away from the castle gates

I've got a long way to go
To reach the entrance

Outside Dracula's Castle
As I walk along
I can tell that the trees have lost all their leaves
And I can tell that the trees are looking quite dead
Yet that doesn't stop the bats from hanging upside
down on their branches

Walking along
The bats swoop down from the branches
Ready to attack me
As well as the spirits and cursed worms

I grab a hold of my whip
And destroy all of the creatures around me
Once that's done
I continue on

Zombies sulk, lag, and walk their way towards me
But I defeat them
The same goes for the dead knights
Who are on the lookout tonight

It's been quite a walk to get to the castle gates
But I'm almost there
I just hope I'm not too late
The night is young
This much I know
And it's been brutal
So far

Inside Dracula's Castle

Inside Dracula's Castle
I'm ready to explore the corridors

Inside Dracula's Castle
Floating giant skulls keep watch
over everything
Including me

Walking past them
I can tell they're ready to give chase
Turning around, they freeze
Attacking and destroying them
They're no more

Continuing on
Through the library
I didn't know Dracula loved to read so much
The books, which are many, are all shelved

Inside Dracula's Castle
I can tell there are many windows
Looking out of a few of them
I can tell things are going bump in the night
Outside
In the graveyard

Passing through the dining room
In Dracula's Castle
I can tell a meal was prepared for the master
vampire not that long ago
As the remains of a meal are still here
He's in the castle somewhere

Inside Dracula's Castle
I've seen it all
Well the heart of it, anyway
I must continue on
Into the night
While I'm inside
Inside Dracula's Castle

Bats

Bats cloak themselves in the dark of night
Trying to keep away from any traces of light

Bats are true survivors of the sort
They love to hang around in total darkness
Especially in the outer court

Bats keep to themselves
And they love to sleep
Prithy they don't like to be woken up

Bats won't hesitate to attack
Should anything cross their path

Giant Spiders on the Top Floor

On the top floor
Giant spiders crawl along the ground
Ready to attack me
Or they simply want to follow me
And give chase

Given the circumstances
And the help of dark magic
This area is perfect for them
No question about it

Webs have been constructed by the giant spiders
on the top floor
But I do my best to avoid them
Even sidestepping them if neccesary

The giant spiders on the top floor give chase
But they can't catch up with me
And they're frustrated to no end
About it all

The Clock Tower (Gears and Chains)

In the clock tower
I'm at the way bottom
Looking up
At the many gears and chains
I can tell that I've got a long way to go

Climbing up
One by one
On the gears and chains
I have to watch myself
Watch where I go
So I don't fall
And plummet to my death
Bua that the same time
I have to be on my guard
Against bats and shape shifting ghosts
Who'd love nothing more than to knoce me off
And end my journey

Climbing up
One after another
On the gears and chains
I'm tired and I'm sore
I've had to use to much strength that I never knew
I had before
But continuing on, I must
It's not going to get any easier
In the clock tower
Tonight

Death Tower

Falling from above
Inside Death Tower
It's going to be quite the hastle to get through
this place
Even after all that I've gone through
I can still feel pain on my face

Inside Death Tower
As I journey along
The ceiling and floor are closing me in
Yet they're controlled by a giant screw
Attacking the screw the best I can
I manage to destroy it

After braving through the lower level of
Death Tower
I spy a rope and begin climbing up
And it's a good thing
Because below
Needles and pins rise up from the ground
To give chase

After climbing up many ropes
I finally reach the top of Death Tower

Needles and pins tried to attack me from above
the first time around
Needles and pins tried to attack me from below
the second time around
Now, the needles and pins are going to try to attack
me from the right side

Running as fast as I can
As well as avoiding confrontation and battling
Every one of my movements demands perfection
And to be precise
As my life is counting on it

Spying one final rope
I grab a hold of it
And climb my way up
Just as the needles and pins come closer and
closer

At the top
I let go of the rope
And fall down on to the ground
I'm safe at last
The needles and pins are gone now
As they're nothing but a memory

Biding Time in the Ghostly Theatre

Arriving in the Ghostly Theatre
I spy a chair to the side
And I sit in it
As I plan my next move
My next action
My next plan

Sitting here
In this chair
I'm biding my time in the Ghostly Theatre

I know
Phantoms and ghosts lie in wait
Holed up in many rooms
As well as roaming the many hallways

The Succubus is waiting for me at the end
But she'll just have to wait
For the time being

Biding my time in the Ghostly Theatre
I realize as I look around
How lovely it is
How professional it all looks
Even if evil is all around
In this place

Pumpkin Doll

With a jack-o-lantern for a head
A burlap sack for a body
And candy for arms
The pumpkins doll may look small and cute
But he packs a deadly punch

Humming a tune aloud
To himself
With many weapons at his disposal
The pumpkin doll wouldn't have it any other way

Wandering through the castle
The pumpkin doll is one in a million
The night might be evil
But the pumpkin doll waddles along

Taking in the sights
He waddles along
He's ok with the night
Just as long as he gets to hum a song

The ghosts and phantoms that roam the castle
don't scare him
As he's eerie himself
Albeit in a completely different way

Who knows how long this night will last
But the pumpkin doll could care less
Just as long as he's still in one piece
And absolutely painless
He's jolly and happy as can be

Anthony, Bess, Clark, Diana, Edward, and Florence are Returning Home

Returning home
These kids have nothing to worry about
The night is over
The castle has imploded into the sea
And the sun shines high in the sky
On this glorious countryside morning
They're going home at last
There's finally peace at last
Peace for Anthony
Peace for Bess
Peace for Clark
Peace for Diana
Peace for Edward
Peace for Florence
Peace for their entire families now
The darkness is now gone for good
They're going home safely
They're walking home safely

Foggy Lake

Sailing across Foggy Lake
On this wooden ship
I can tell that I'm not welcome

Fishmen leap up from the water
And land on the ship
Ready to do battle with me

After succeeding in victory over
a couple of battles
I look above me
Seeing many items that can help
me along hanging on the masts

Step by step
One by one
I flip switches to swing and turn the
masts
Walking carefully
I grab the many helpful items
Namely items and food

Once that's done
I head off to the heart of the ship
Namely the cargo hold
And try to figure out where to go
after this

Descending down into the cargo hold
Skeletons greet me, yellow and old
However, I don't think they're in a good
mood to see me
As they set their sights on attacking me

Destroying the skeletons
I find my way into the cargo hold

Fishmen greet me
Ready to do battle
I take them all on
Using my talents of speed and attacking

Once they're defeated
Things begin to quiet
Things begin to be still

A sea dragon nearby punches a hole in the ship
I try to get to the higher level of the cargo hold
As water is rapidly flooding this ship

Reaching the higher level
With patience
I find an exit

Jumping on a floating piece of wood
I stand back and take in the sight of the ship
sinking and going down

There's no going back now
I can only go forward now

Julia Laforeze

On this journey of mine
Things get hard and difficult sometimes
So it's more of a reason I'm glad to have her help

Living in seclusion
Living as a witch
I'm grateful for her friendship
As well as her help

Julia takes care of my innocent devils and familiars
She offers weapons to me
As well as many types of potions
And also letting me rest in a rocking chair
I'm grateful for everything she's done for me

Long Nights for Tera and Iris

These nights are long nights for Tera and Iris

Separated from each other
They're prisoners
Locked away in their own cells

It's during these nights
That Tera continually prays
And Iris continually works on her medicine

As they look through their cell windows at the night,
the stars, and the moon
Tera and Iris hope that they'll be rescued at some
point
One of these nights

Long Live the Belmont Family and Their Friends

Long live the Belmont Family and their friends
Through years and centuries
They've been locked in a battle between good and evil
And they've always emerged triumphant
They all have beat the weather
They all have beat the elements
They all have in the end, succeeded
Long live the Belmont Family and their friends
From beginning to end
Long may they roam
