The Big Picture Vampire romance has existed almost as long as vampire fiction itself. Someone thirsting over an attractive bloodsucker is as prevailing a practice as stakes through the heart or avoiding the sunrise.

The pull toward these villains remained undeniable enough for modern interpretations to extricate the 1800s subtext and morph it into blood-soaked, swoonworthy text.
Netflix's four-season adaptation keeps the basic premise but significantly expands Castlevania's world and characters. For one, the games keep Lisa offscreen. She's never more than a tired trope, a dead motivation for her angsty husband's actions.
