10 Times Netflix's Castlevania Made Alucard Suffer For No Reason Whatsoever

Netflix’s Castlevania franchise is full of tragedy, but no character's story is more tragic than Alucard’s. Despite being one of the franchise’s main heroes, directors Sam and Adam Deats certainly demonstrate a penchant for putting him through pain. Alucard’s whole story in Castlevania can be summed up in four words: he didn’t deserve that.
Across four seasons of Castlevania and two seasons of Castlevania: Nocturne, Alucard does nothing wrong beyond bickering with Trevor or Richter. All he ever tries to do is be the good man his mother raised him to be and try to protect humanity, yet his life has been overflowing with suffering since the day his mother died.
