Syousetsu Akumajou Dracula: Akuma no Chi Chi no Akumu
As described by the contributor, JPCVFAN: "Syousetsu Akumajou Dracula: Akuma no Chi Chi no Akumu Vol.1 (translated to mean Novel Demon Castle Dracula: Demon's Blood - Nightmare Blood Vol.1) was released by company Aspect in 1994. It was quickly discontinued and saw no other volumes." Shedding some insight into the novel's creation is the following postscript:
"I wanted to write a vampire novel.
However, the magazine editor demanded novelizing the video game.
I borrowed 'Dracula' and 'Simon' from Akumajou Dracula.
Still, the story is almost all my original creation. Sorry.
This novel is not a novelization of the video game."
Featured on this page are character profiles and sample shots of the novel's pages--that is, several pieces of artwork as contributed by the very same JPCVFAN.
