Toccata and Fugue in D Minor
| Toccata and Fugue In D Minor | ||||||
| ||||||
One of the most popular organ pieces ever composed is Toccata and Fugue In D Minor (BWV 565), traditionally ascribed to Johann Sebastian Bach, though some scholars think it is misattributed. This particular tune is often seen when a game calls for a more spooky mood due to the song's appearance in horror-related pop-culture.

You'll hear Toccata and Fugue In D Minor upon entering Dracula's castle on the island in the center of the poisoned lake. Despite Dracula being a classic villain, he's disappointingly easy to vanquish in this game. The song is Sound.003 in the game files.

Pieces of Toccata and Fugue In D Minor can be heard at the beginning of the song Bach Bash, but rest of the song sounds original. Bach in the title of the song apparently refers to the original composer, Johann Sebastian Bach
