Black Night

Not to be confused with Black Knight.

Black Night is a music theme originally composed by the Konami Kukeiha Club for Castlevania. It plays during the final battle against Dracula (second form). A remix with electronic guitars and chorus appears in Castlevania: The Arcade and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

The Castlevania: The Arcade version was reused in Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls during the final battle against Dracula in his final form before the 1.4.1 update, where it was replaced by a arrangement of Big Battle.
