Game-Specific InformationEdit

CastlevaniaEdit

The original Stage 3 boss, the Mummies come out from coffins on either side of the room, and pace back and forth while throwing bandages in low wave patterns. They share the same life meter, but a Mummy will die if it takes the equivalent of half a meter's damage. The best way to attack them is to remain low and whip at the Mummies' ankles, hitting their thrown bandages as well. The Mummies are the first boss who is immune to the Stopwatch item. Interestingly, the pit that Simon falls into in Level 4 is clearly visible on the left side of the room.

Castlevania III: Dracula's CurseEdit

Mummies sometimes appear as bosses, being summoned from caskets to fight a round against the hero, before or after a round of also battling against a Cyclops or Fire Demon.

Super Castlevania IVEdit

Known as simply "Mummy" in the Japanese verson. Found in the Clock Tower in Super Castlevania IV, Akmodan fights Simon on the actual hands of the clock, giving him little space to maneuver. This embalmbed and wrapped mummy creature releases waving shards and emits many short-ranged fireballs, and can teleport in and out via its wrappings.

Castlevania: Rondo of Blood and Dracula X ChroniclesEdit

One of the four classic bosses that Shaft brought back from the dead was the Mummy Man. In additon to the usual mummy abilities, the Mummy Man can now control stone. When the Mummy Man appeared, he would summon large stone blocks (the kind used to build pyramids out of), and send them towards Richter or Maria to try and crush them.

Castlevania: Portrait of RuinEdit

Mummies are constantly-respawning enemies who appear in the desert stage. They are slow-moving, but when they attack, they can stretch their limbs out and enhance their reach several times.
The Mummy Man boss from Rondo of Blood also makes an appearance in this game. The ablity to control stones from that game returned in this game, but in a different way. Instead of trying to crush the hero, the Mummy Man tries to trap the hero between the wall and the blocks, and then unleash spiked from within the blocks to skewer the hero. On top of that, Mummy Man can also summon the blocks from the background and fling them towards the heroes to do some nasty damage.
