An interesting little detail came out of an ongoing press event for Netflix today. One that’s bound to have video game fans in a state of WOW! The streamer announced today that “Castlevania” Season 1, Part 1 will be coming to Netflix in 2017!

A quick look at Netflix’s press site yielded this synopsis:

Inspired by the classic video game series, “Castlevania” is a dark medieval fantasy following the last surviving member of the disgraced Belmont clan, trying to save Eastern Europe from extinction at the hand of Vlad Dracula Tepe himself. The animated series is from Frederator Studios, a Wow! Unlimited Media company, written by best-selling author and comic book icon Warren Ellis and executive produced by Warren Ellis, Kevin Kolde, Fred Seibert, and Adi Shankar.

Around a year ago Shankar announced via Twitter

“I’m producing a super violent Castlevania mini-series with my homies Fred Seibert and Kevin Klonde. It’s going to be dark, satirical, and after a decade of propaganda it will flip the vampire sub-genre on its head.”

Sounds like everything’s coming along nicely! More as we get it!
