What is the special 1 crystal on castlevania n64?

Answer 1

In the forest of silence, when you jump onto the broken bridge with a bone throwing skeleton on it, instead of jumping forward again to go to the area with the werewolf in it, look to the left and you will see a floating platform with a torch on it. There is an invisible walkway leading to it from the broken bridge but you may have to jump near the start or/and end of it. You can throw holy water to reveal invisible walkways since you will see the flames. Destroy the torch on that platform and pick up the special 1 gem.
