The Dark Octopus is an enemy in the Castlevania series. It is an octopus creature, tormented by black magic.

Description[]

Dark Octopi live in damp areas and are often encountered in large groups. They move rather slowly along the floor and attack by emitting clouds of black ink. The combined clouds emitted by several of these creatures can effectively conceal them from sight, making it difficult to measure at which distance the player is from their tentacles and potentially allowing them to inflict contact damage if not careful.

Appearances[]

There are certain areas in the Reverse Caverns where these enemies can actually be found crawling on the ceiling.
