Evil Flame

Evil Flames (called Death Fire and Death Fire King in Japan) are enemies in Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse. Instead of attacking directly, they enter the bodies of long dead creatures and infuse them with new life, taking control over their actions.
==Description==
These spirits seem to be related to common ghosts, possibly occupying a higher rank and hence one of them being referred to as "King".
The first Evil Flame (Death Fire) appears at the end of the Haunted Ship of Fools, where it waits floating over an altar until the player arrives. It then enters two nearby caskets to take possession of the bodies inside: two Mummies and a Cyclops. Once these monsters have been defeated, the entity is expelled from their bodies and shatters into small pieces.
A stronger Evil Flame (Death Fire King) appears at the end of either the Morbid Mountains or the Rampart and Lookout Tower, depending on the route taken by the player. It attacks in the same way, with the addition of possessing one last powerful creature, Leviathan.
