Ghost Familiar

The Ghost Familiar is a recurring familiar in the Castlevania series.

Game specific informationEdit

Castlevania: Symphony of the NightEdit

As one of Alucard's five Familiars, the Ghost resembles a miniature Phantom Skull. It will hover over nearby enemies and damage them with magic. As it increases in levels it will begin to attack faster and, once the Ghost familiar is at least level 70, its attacks will heal Alucard for 8 HP per attack. If Alucard morphs into his bat form the Ghost familiar will look around, form three "?" above its head and will leave the screen and no longer assist you. Turning Alucard back to normal or into the mist or wolf form will have the Ghost return.

Castlevania: Circle of the MoonEdit

A Ghost Familiar resembling the top half of a small skeletal dragon floats near Nathan, attacking nearby foes one at a time, when combining the Saturn + Serpent DSS cards.

Castlevania: Portrait of RuinEdit

The Summon Ghost summons a Ghost. It behaves similarly to a Ghost Familiar by hovering near an enemy, causing continuous damage, but leaves the area after 30 seconds after summoning. When fully charged, two ghosts are summoned, which leave after about a minute.

Castlevania: Harmony of DespairEdit

Soma Cruz is able to summon a Ghost familiar in Harmony of Despair by using a Ghost's soul. Alucard, however, is not.
