The second and pretty rad season of Castlevania: Nocturne dropped at the start of the year. As fans await word on the show’s future, Netflix and Powerhouse are putting out an art book chock filled with material from the first two seasons.
Due out in March, the 208-page book features “hundreds of pieces of never-before-seen concept artwork, production design, and stunning storyboards” covering the characters, locations, and monsters from the series and commentary from Powerhouse staff. Peep some pages below to see Richter Belmont, Eduoard (in his monster form), and storyboards from season one episodes.
Art books are popular, and fortunately, Netflix really likes to putting them out for its animated hits: the original Castlevania series has its own book for its entire four-season run, and Arcane and several movies have gotten the same treatment. It helps that its most high-profile stuff looks really damn good and get attention because of it. Like its predecessor, Castlevania: Nocturne has been praised for its visuals and animation, so at least Netflix knows to capitalize on that.
For fans of the show—or really, anyone just into behind-the-scenes material who wants to know how things are made—the art book will definitely be worth grabbing when it hits shelves on March 3, 2026 for $55.
