Development[edit | edit source]
Writer Cavan Scott originally thought about parodying Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein, but ultimately decided to parody Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula, given that Count Dooku actor Sir Christopher Lee was best known for playing Count Dracula in several Hammer films.[4]

- ↑ Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle 5 ends with Darth Vader imprisoning Vaneé, and as shown in Star Wars Adventures: Shadow of Vader's Castle, he doesn't get released until after the end of the Galactic Civil War. As he appears in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas places in 0 BBY, Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle 5 must take place some time after 0 BBY. Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle takes place immediately before Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle, meaning that Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle 2 takes place after 0 BBY. As Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle features Darth Vader, who dies in 4 ABY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas, then this series must take place some time between 0 BBY and 4 ABY.
- ↑ Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle 2 takes place during the Clone Wars, which ended in 19 BBY according to Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. Furthermore, Ultimate Star Wars, New Edition places Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle 2 after the events of "Nomad Droids".
Star Wars: The Clone Wars Chronological Episode Order on StarWars.com (backup link) places "Nomad Droids" in between "Prisoners" and "Crisis on Naboo", both of which are dated to 20 BBY in Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. As Star Wars Adventures: Tales from Vader's Castle 2 takes place after "Nomad Droids" but before the end of the Clone Wars, it must take place some time between 20 BBY and 19 BBY.
