If you grew up with a video game controller in both hands and fancied yourself a Belmont, then your nostalgia sense is about to tingle now that Netflix has revealed the first teaser trailer for their new Castlevania series, coming out on July 7th.
Inspired by the beloved Konami video game series that kicked off in 1986, the Castlevania series trailer teases a world where the last of the vampire-hunting Belmonts looks to take down the big, bad bloodsucker known as Vlad Dracula Tepe.
"Inspired by the classic video game series, Castlevania is a dark medieval fantasy following the last surviving member of the disgraced Belmont clan, trying to save Eastern Europe from extinction at the hand of Vlad Dracula Tepe himself. The animated series is from Frederator Studios, a Wow! Unlimited Media company, written by best-selling author and comic book icon Warren Ellis and executive produced by Warren Ellis, Kevin Kolde, Fred Seibert and Adi Shankar."
Raised on a steady diet of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps books and Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Derek has been fascinated with fear since he first saw ForeverWare being used on an episode of Eerie, Indiana.
When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
