Budapest is the capital city of Hungary, a country in Central Europe, and the location where most of the events in the Underworld series take place.

The Vampire mansion Ördögház and the nearby small town of Szentendre are also located on the western banks of the Danube.

Underworld[]

Throughout the course of Underworld, Selene is seen driving to various locations in Budapest. The Vampire mansion, Ördögház, is located just north of here, as are various other locations, including the subway station, the Lycan Den, and at least one Vampire safe house within or underneath the city itself. When Selene loses consciousness after being stabbed by Lucian, she and Michael Corvin end up in the Danube.

Underworld: Evolution[]

A Vampire safe house and Ördögház are both visited in Underworld: Evolution, with most of the film’s events taking place just outside the city. In the novelization, Marcus Corvinus marvels at how much the area has changed since his last reign 200 years earlier.

Later in Evolution, Selene and Michael return to Budapest, where they visit Pier 17 to board the Sancta Helena and meet with Alexander Corvinus.

Blood Enemy[]

The city is seen again in the non-canon novel, Blood Enemy. In Blood Enemy, all of the present-day action occurs within Budapest, including a shoot-out at Statue Park (also known as Memento Park), a real-life location in Budapest.

Trivia[]

  • Part of the reason that the writers and filmmakers chose to base the events of the film in Budapest was because of its Gothic architecture, and the other part being for the Central Eastern-European location, Hungary neighbouring Romania and Transylvania.
  • It is as yet unknown whenever or not the events of Underworld: Awakening occur in Budapest as well.
