Dying Has Never Frightened Us

Intergeneration Trauma, Healing, & the Burden of Legacy in Castlevania - October 25, 2023

An analytical and interpretative essay that discusses how the concept of family legacy and duty can lead to intergenerational trauma in the Castlevania franchise. Focuses primarily on the Belmont who found strength from his pain by honouring his family's legacy no matter how heavy it felt or the burden that came with it and the Belmont who found his own strength from the ones he loved and who loved him in return.
