The Dance Hall is a location in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow.

Overview[]

As the Dance Hall is designed to resemble ballrooms in real life, it is filled with long hallways. A few statues and paintings are seen across the area. Chandeliers, which act as light sources in the area for the most part, hang above ceilings. An immense ballroom background can be seen in the Dance Hall's middle area.

Moving below ground, the Dance Hall counts with an underground area that resembles an ancient spoilables storage. Most likely, this area is used as storage place for meat and wines, as carcasses of unknown animals can be seen hanging overhead and wine barrels appear in some rooms as well. Some areas, noticeably the long dead end with Minotaurs, Killer Dolls and Zombie Officers, as well as the passageway with a Wooden Golem, Evil Butchers and Fleamen, have smears of what appears as fog. This most likely is a visualization of freezing air to indicate the area is cooled by unknown means.

With Malphas and the Flying Armor's souls equipped, Soma Cruz accesses a previously unreachable area in the Castle Corridor, leading all the way up to the Dance Hall. Upon entering, he encounters an amnesiac man who only refers to himself as "J", and learns from him a hint of the events of 1999. They part ways and, eventually, Soma finds his way to the Inner Quarters.
