Dark Metamorphosis is a healing spell in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, usable by Alucard from the start of the game. After activating this spell, Alucard will have a red glowing outline around himself and any blood that splashes on him will heal 8HP worth of damage during the duration of the spell's effect. Blood is only spilled from certain enemies, and only by weapons with the Cut attribute.

The effect of healing with Dark Metamorphosis can be doubled by equipping the Bloodstone. It is duplicated by Gurthang when it strikes an enemy and is always on for no MP cost if the Muramasa is equipped.

Dracula himself is also capable of performing. As with Alucard, it boosts Dracula's blood draining ability. He can also bite an enemy or grasp them and drain their life. He rarely does the latter though.
