The second season of Netflix's animated Castlevania series arrives later this week, along with a special re-release of a couple of the franchise's classic video game installments, so this seems like as good of a time as any for a preview from series writer and producer Warren Ellis.
The writer has been offering some information on the show via his mailing list and recently dropped a more in-depth look at what to expect when the series returns on October 26th. You can check out his thoughts on season 2 below.
[blockquote-0]The Castlevania TV series is based on Konami’s best-selling video game franchise of the same name, specifically drawing influence from 1989’s Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse, which originally released for the Nintendo Entertainment System and was later ported to other consoles. Prolific comic-book writer Warren Ellis pens the TV series.
Season 2 of Castlevania will consist of 8 episodes and is set to premiere on October 26th on Netflix, just in time for Halloween.
