Castle Bleck Entry

The Castle Bleck Entry is the entrance to Castle Bleck in Super Paper Mario. It is the setting of both Chapter 8-1 and of Princess Peach's chapter interlude escape attempt, during which she is playable.

Chapter 8-1: The Impending Darkness
Storyline text After finding every Pure Heart, the band of heroes set off for Castle Bleck.

The stakes were high as the ominous void grew larger and the end drew near.

Could Mario and friends stave off the inevitable and overturn the prophecy?

What strange twist of fate awaited Tippi and Count Bleck?

These thoughts plagued the minds of our heroes as the curtain rose on the final act...

At the end of this chapter, O'Chunks and Bowser engage in battle, with the latter emerging victorious. However, there is little chance for celebration, as The Void begins to affect the structural integrity of the castle. The entire structure rumbles, and the ceiling begins to collapse. O'Chunks at first struggles to bear the weight of the ceiling alone, but Bowser soon aids him. Mario and the others then feel another tremor and are unable to return to the previous room (having advanced forward before the confrontation), forced to continue on their trek through the castle without knowing the fate of either Bowser or O'Chunks.
