Overview of Castlevania: Nocturne’s Plot
The storyline of Nocturne revolves around Ritcher Belmont, a vampire hunter and distant descendant of Trevor Belmont, along with his adoptive sister, Maria Renard. Together, they race against time to thwart Erzsebet Báthory from unlocking godlike abilities that could spell doom for humanity.
Erzsebet’s character draws inspiration from a real historical figure, a Hungarian noblewoman infamous for her alleged crimes in the late 16th century, also known as the Bloody Countess. Within the narrative, she is portrayed as one of Dracula’s nieces.
Set against the turbulent backdrop of the French Revolution in 1792, the story unfolds several centuries after the events depicted in the original Castlevania animated series.
