Gargoyle

Gargoyle is an enemy in the Castlevania series. A living statue of a grotesque monster that boasts the wings of a bat, made either of terra-cotta, marble, or granite. In Castlevania Bloodlines, It is the third boss fought. This large demon's attacks consist of either with tail swipes, shooting projectiles from the tip of its tail, or by making flying passes. When low on health, it will start bouncing around the top of the tower in an attempt to land on the player or knock him off to his doom. Once it is defeated, it will rise one last time into the air and let out a shrilling scream as it explodes into pieces.
