Castlevania is a horror action-adventure animated series set in a dark fantasy Medieval world loosely based on the video game series of the same name, released on Netflix worldwide. Its story is originally based on the events from Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse and unites some of its aspects with elements from other games, such as Symphony of the Night and Curse of Darkness. It features Trevor Belmont as the main protagonist, on a quest to stop the evil vampire Vlad Dracula Tepes, who seeks to destroy humanity following the execution of his wife Lisa.

The creators have clarified that the settings present in the animated series are separate from the games, which implies that lore, characterizations and plots don't necessarily parallel or copy them and things can develop differently. It is the first series from Frederator Studios to not be made for kids, as it is rated TV-MA.

The first season consists of four episodes of 23-25 minutes each, which all premiered on July 7, 2017.

After being delayed from a July 2018 release, a second season was ultimately confirmed by Adi Shankar and released on October 26, 2018.

The Crime of the Century is the latest searing documentary project from Oscar- and Emmy-winning director Alex Gibney. Gibney is best-known for his work exposing corruption. He directed Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room, Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief, and the juicy Elizabeth Holmes doc The Inventor: Out For Blood in Silicon Valley. In each of those projects, Gibney chipped away at the psychology (and paper trails) that hide wrong-doing in plain sight. And in each of those projects, Gibney had clear cut villains to hang blame on. The underlying horror in The Crime of the Century is that opioid epidemic doesn’t have just one villain. It has countless villains, many of whom are ironically victims of opioid addiction themselves.
