Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin — like previous games in the series, includes a large number of endings. In particular, it has two endings. In both, Jonathan and Charlotte stop Dracula's resurrection, but one of the endings is "bad" because the main goals are not fulfilled. In the second, “good” ending, in which these goals are fulfilled, the player gets the opportunity to study several more paintings, and it is this ending that is considered canonical.
