In an interview, Richard Wordsworth stated that in the original screenplay his beggar character was a werewolf. Hammer told him that the censor had problems with the notion of a werewolf/rapist, so out it went.
Makeup-artist Roy Ashton based his makeup for this film on Jack P. Pierce's makeup for The Wolf Man.
