Blood and Black Lace Facts
The German titles for the film were 'Bloody Silk' and 'The Masked Strangler'

For its original release in America the distributors disliked Bava's opening credits that showed the cast posed around the salon in a series of creative tracking shots. The distributors had new opening credits made that showed a series of macabre animations of mannequins being shot.

Actress Mary Arden wrote most of the English dialog for the film, as she was the only English-speaking member of the production and the film was being shot in English for overseas marketing.

The burn makeup for Mary Arden's face would take four hours to apply. One evening after shooting Arden was too tired to have it removed from her face and went home wearing the grisly makeup. Arden's mother, who was living with her at the time, was very alarmed when she saw her daughter come in.

The title of the film for its release in Denmark was 'Red Nights of the Iron Hand', referring to the metal weapon used in Nicole's murder.
