How to Unlock Julius Belmont in Vampire Survivors Ode to Castlevania

Vampire Survivors: Ode to Castlevania introduces many new characters to the fray, including the entirety of the Belmont family. Julius Belmont, the last known descendant of the Belmont clan, is tucked away in Dracula’s Castle, and it’s up to you to find him before he joins your roster of vampire hunters. Here’s how to find the Second Coffin and unlock Julius Belmont in Vampire Survivors: Ode to Castlevania.

Where do I find the second coffin in Vampire Survivors Ode to Castlevania DLC

To unlock Julius Belmont in Vampire Survivors, you’ll need to locate the Second Coffin within a secret room of the Grand Library. While this process is similar to how you unlocked Leon Belmont, you’ll need to travel deep within Dracula’s Castle to reach Julius.

The image below shows the exact path needed to reach the Second Coffin and Julius Belmont. Note that the path begins at the entrance of the Grand Library, which is directly after the Alchemy Lab and Scorpion Gate locations. If you haven’t yet unlocked the Scorpion Gate, we highly recommend you do so first.

To find the Grand Library’s secret area, follow the steps below:

1) Pass through the Alchemy Lab

Beginning from the Scorpion Gate, head northeast until you reach the Alchemy Lab. Move south through the Alchemy Lab towards the Puppet Master rune and then northeast again to head towards the exit of the lab and the entrance of the Grand Library.

2) Navigate through the Grand Library

The Grand Library consists of several long, horizontal hallways. From the entrance, head east until you reach the end of the first hallway. Move down into the next hallway and head west, then, move down into another hallway and head east again.

Once you reach the end of this hallway, you’ll enter a vertical-shaped room with bookshelves on either side.

3) Enter the Blood-stained Wall

Move down through the vertical room and stick to the western side, paying close attention to the walls. In the third row of bookshelves, you’ll notice a wall with a blood stain on it. Pass through the blood stain to enter the Grand Library’s secret area.

If you’ve obtained the Castlevania map, you can open it to reveal a question mark (?) on the west side of the secret area. That’s our final destination – the Second Coffin.

4) Find and Open the Second Coffin

Head to the left side of the secret area to find the Second Coffin. Walking over the coffin will open it, causing a shadowy figure to burst out and zip away. Congratulations, you’ve just unlocked Julius Belmont and can now purchase him from the character selection screen!
