- For the location, see Dracula's Castle.
Dracula's Castle is the name of two different themes composed by Michiru Yamane for the Castlevania series. The first introduced in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and the second in Castlevania: Curse of Darkness.
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Dracula's Castle is a theme composed by Michiru Yamane for Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. It is heard in the first section of Dracula's castle, the Entrance. It is considered by many fans as Alucard's theme, which was confirmed by Konami later in Castlevania Judgment. In the game Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition, once all 20 challenges are completed, a stage based off in Castlevania is unlocked as well as this theme, which plays during this stage.

Trivia
An electronic-style remix of this song exists as raw CD audio on the US release of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night for the PlayStation. It is preceded with a warning from Alucard not to play cut (track) #1, as it contains computer data. Amusingly, Alucard adds that the listener "probably won't listen to him anyway" before the song starts.
Castlevania: Curse of Darkness
Another theme named Dracula's Castle was composed by Michiru Yamane for Castlevania: Curse of Darkness. It is the music that plays while exploring Dracula's Castle.
