Netflix's animated series Castlevania is currently available at a discounted price on Amazon. You can purchase a box set that includes Seasons 1 and 2 for just $15. Alternatively, you can buy the first two seasons individually, with a special bundle offering Season 1 along with a T-Shirt for the same price. Unfortunately, Season 3 is currently out of stock on Amazon, and third-party sellers are charging more for it.
Castlevania: Nocturne, which was released on Blu-ray on October 8, is now available for $24 (originally $40). Amazon is also offering a variety of other Blu-ray deals in the lead-up to Halloween, so be sure to explore their extensive selection of horror and horror-adjacent titles, including Castlevania, before these offers expire.
Netflix's animated League of Legends series, Arcane, also made its Blu-ray debut on the same day as Castlevania. Unlike Castlevania, Arcane Season 1 is available in 4K Blu-ray, and Amazon is offering deals on its limited editions. The Limited Edition 4K Steelbook featuring Jinx is priced at $41 (originally $60), while the 1080p Blu-ray Limited Edition Steelbook featuring Vi is available for $37.33 (originally $55).
For those who missed the original airing, Castlevania follows vampire hunter Trevor Belmont, the powerful witch Sypha, and Alucard as they battle Dracula and his demonic forces. The latter half of the show delves into a coven of vampires aiming to establish their own undead kingdom, as well as the foul-mouthed Grim Reaper, played by Malcolm McDowell.
The series is known for its intense violence and beautifully animated action sequences, complemented by sharp banter during quieter moments. The box sets include a range of extras such as behind-the-scenes videos, voice actor interviews, storyboards, art galleries, and more.
Set centuries after the original Castlevania animated series, Nocturne Season 1 follows Richter Belmont and draws inspiration from the 1993 PC Engine game Rondo of Blood. Initially exclusive to Japan, Konami later brought the story to North America on Super Nintendo as Castlevania: Dracula X. Netflix has recently hinted at Season 2 of Nocturne, which is set to premiere in January and is inspired by the classic PlayStation game Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the direct sequel to Rondo of Blood.
