| '''Castle Bleck''' is the setting of [[Super Paper Mario#Chapter 8: Castle Bleck|Chapter 8]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. It is a monochrome castle located in [[The Void]], with the interior having a similar aesthetic to the original look of [[World 8-1 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 8-1]] in the [[Dark Land]] of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. The castle is separated into four main areas, one for each Chapter section respectively: the Entry, the Foyer, the Interior, and the Inner Sanctum. Castle Bleck is one of only two worlds (the other being [[The Bitlands]]) to have at least one boss battle in each level ([[O'Chunks]] in 8-1, [[Mimi]] in 8-2, [[Dimentio]] in 8-3, and [[Count Bleck]] and [[Super Dimentio]] in 8-4). It is also one of the only two worlds (the other being [[Outer Space]]) to end with a two part boss battle. Castle Bleck's theme is a cover version of the [[Pure Heart]]s', Count Bleck's, and the [[Chaos Heart]]'s theme, mixed with some 8-bit sound effects. According to [[The InterNed]], the music that plays while [[Princess Peach|Peach]] or [[Luigi]] are trying to escape Castle Bleck in the interludes after Chapters 1 and 2 is titled "In the Darkness".

| ==History==
| | {{stub}} |
| [[File:SPM Hammer Bro Captain.png|thumb|left|[[Princess Peach]] with [[Private Koopa]] and a [[Hammer Bro captain]]]]
| |
| After the end of chapter 1, Castle Bleck first appears where Peach tries to escape from it. She, along with a [[Hammer Bro]] and Private Koopa (who are eventually hypnotized by [[Nastasia]]), search for an exit. Castle Bleck later re-appears at the end of chapter 2, where Luigi tries to search for an exit, with the help of [[Gary (Super Paper Mario)|two]] [[Goomba (Super Paper Mario character)|Goombas]]. The three eventually reach a dead end and are all hypnotized by Nastasia.
| |
|
| |
|
| Castle Bleck is first visited by the player after all the [[Pure Heart]]s are collected, being accessed via the Black Door in [[Flopside]]. Each section of Castle Bleck involves a different set of puzzles, and the first three sections end with the player fighting one of the main antagonists and losing a party member:
| | [[Category: Places]] |
| | | [[Category: Dimensions]] |
| *[[Castle Bleck Entry|Chapter 8-1]] involves using the four characters' special abilities to collect keys and activate triggers. [[O'Chunks]] is fought at the end, and Bowser is lost afterward.
| | [[Category: Castles and Fortresses]] |
| *[[Castle Bleck Foyer|Chapter 8-2]] involves avoiding many traps similar to the ones seen during the events of [[Merlee's Mansion]]. [[Mimi]] is fought at the end, and Peach is lost afterward.
| |
| *[[Castle Bleck Interior|Chapter 8-3]] involves the player trying to get out of loops and chasing [[Dimentio]] through one section of a level from each of the previous chapters. Dimentio is fought at the end, and Luigi is lost afterward.
| |
| *[[Castle Bleck Inner Sanctum|Chapter 8-4]] involves large mazes of doors that require the player to [[flip]] to solve them. [[Count Bleck]] is fought here, and the characters that were lost from the previous boss-fights return. Once Count Bleck is defeated, [[Super Dimentio]] is fought.

| |The entrance to the castle. This area starts the world's trend of finding keys to move forward. [[O'Chunks]] is the boss and [[Bowser]] is left behind.

| |
| |Besides keys, this area also uses doors that warp the player back to the start of the room until a certain task is completed. [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] need to chase [[Dimentio]] through one section of a level from each of the previous chapters, who is then battled as the boss. Luigi is left behind.

| |
| |The final level. Most of the level is a maze that requires [[flip]]ping to navigate. [[Count Bleck]] is battled at the end, with Bowser, Peach and Luigi rejoining the party. Dimentio then betrays Bleck and is fought as the final boss, [[Super Dimentio]]. Tippi and Count Bleck then sacrifice themselves to destroy the Chaos Heart.
