The arcade soundtrack for Haunted Castle sounds remarkably good, considering it was made in 1988. Though the game is arguably the weakest of the entire Castlevania series, there is quite a bit of good music. Here marks the first appearance of the famous "Bloody Tears" song, as well as a few other classics that, unfortunately have never been heard in another Castlevania game (such as Cross Your Heart, which WAS rearranged on the Dracula X OST, Clocktower's Beat, and Sent to the Devil's Reqiuem.) And if nothing else, get the track labeled "Never End" to hear the game's rather silly death scream.

Thanks to Carl for all of these MP3s!
