Abandoned Pit to the Catacomb

The , known as the Abandoned Mine in most English versions, is a location in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.
==Castlevania: Symphony of the Night==
===Overview===
There is very little evidence of this place being a mine (and even less of it being abandoned), save for a few vertical chambers which display doors in the back which may be used to access the deeper and more rewarding regions of the environment. Rocky, mossy, darkened corridors make up the majority of this transition area.
===Geography===
The Abandoned Pit to the Catacomb is first reached after destroying a wooden floor in the Underground Caverns using an Ape Skeleton's exploding barrel, which appears after a switch is hit in the room across from the top of the waterfall, which requires the Leap Stone. The pit itself is a very short level which travels downward. It can be exited early to the right to enter a Warp Room. Continuing downward leads to a room where the boss Cerberus is fought, which appears to be the entrance to Hades. Beyond this area are the Catacombs.
The corresponding level to the Abandoned Pit to the Catacomb in the Reverse Castle is the Cave.

==Other appearances==
===Castlevania: Harmony of Despair===
The stage One Who is Many in Castlevania: Harmony of Despair contains elements of this stage, along with other nearby underground stages. This area is beyond the Cerberos head gate in the upper right of the map. It contains the same enemies that its Castlevania: Symphony of the Night counterpart has.
===Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls===
The second chapter of the book That Which Writhes called The Road to Hell is based on the Abandoned Pit to the Catacombs of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. It is a much more expansive area than its Symphony of the Night counterpart and includes acid pits.
===Castlevania: Moonlight Rhapsody===
The Abandoned Mine appears as part of the Underground Vault in Moonlight Rhapsody, along with the Catacombs. The general layout is similar, but the background has been altered to represent an underground vault instead.
