The weekend may be over and the long week just starting, but today is Halloween and that means there's still plenty of reasons to celebrate. Reason #42, for example, is that there's a fan-made remake of the original Castlevania in the Unreal engine currently in development, and you can play it right now.

Creator "dejawolf" built the first-level remake as part of a month-long Halloween-themed game jam, which aims to inspire the birth of more horror games. If you're a fan of survival-horror, I highly recommend checking out the other entries as well.

Some of these projects will go on to become full-fledged games, while others will remain unfinished demos. Considering the legal red tape, I don't foresee Castlevania: Unreal Edition becoming a purchasable product, so I suggest either downloading the demo while you can or just enjoying this video that dejawolf put together:
