Incidental world-building

There are motorcycles in Castlevania 64, but the game is set in 1852. Since even the first STEAM cycle was 1867 (and the first gas motorcycle was 1885, and I’m pretty sure these run on gas), this implies that Dracula’s castle is…what, a time machine? A spot outside of time where monsters and artifacts from all over the space-time continuum just sort of show up? Some sort of garbage drain of the universe where random shit can show up along with all the monsters? I don’t know but it’s fascinating.
