Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is renowned for its incredible secrets, as well as, you know, being one of the best video game sequels of all time. The game is so chock full of hidden details that not having a hidden secret level would ruin its reputation. Thankfully, it doesn't just have one; it has one of the best.

Suppose you love the view of Dracula's Castle. In that case, you can spice it up even further by accessing the Inverted Castle (also known as the Reverse Castle), which is an entirely upside-down version of the iconic location -- suck it Stranger Things!

But there's more to it than that, with the hidden level acting as an almost entirely new experience complete with unique art assets, colour schemes, music and more.

Besides being an entirely fresh map to explore, the level also gives you another ending, forming one of the game's three unique climaxes.

If you gather the right items and get your hands on the Holy Glasses, you can free Richter Belmont from the evil spell placed on him by Shaft. This will lead you to the Inverted Castle, where you can battle through waves of enemies and eventually take part in a boss fight with the resurrected Dracula. Now, that's a cool ending to an amazing game!
