List of media references in MediEvil
The following is a list of all media referenced in MediEvil, sorted alphabetically.
Dracula
The Wulfrum Hall level in MediEvil 2 is heavily inspired by Bram Stoker's Dracula:
- The Count is Count Dracula himself.
- Renfield is Count Dracula's deranged, fanatically devoted servant and familiar in the book and is used as a name for the servants of Wulfrum Hall.
- The Vampire Girls found in the level may be a more family friendly version of the Brides of Dracula.
- Wulfrum Hall itself references Dracula's residence in London. Dracula's move into London is a core element of the novel.
Lord of the Rings, The
Several references to The Lord of the Rings appear in MediEvil: Resurrection:
- The Shrubbites in the Enchanted Forest level are a parody of the Ents.
- Fazguls, Zarok's elite bodyguards, are a reference to the Nazgûl, Sauron's "most terrible servants."
- The Pumpkin Witch calls her piece of the Anubis Stone "my precious," much like what Gollum calls the One Ring.
Phantom of the Opera, The
In the original MediEvil, Mr. Organ in The Hilltop Mausoleum level is called a "would be Phantom of the Opera." This is taken further in MediEvil: Resurrection where the character's appearance is based on the phantom.
Time Machine, The
The Sewers and The Time Machine levels in MediEvil 2 are inspired by H.G. Wells' The Time Machine:
- The Mullocks are based on Morlocks, a race that similarly dwells underground.
- The design of the Chrono-chair itself seems to be based on the time machine in the 1960 film adaptation of the novel.
