The Terror Facts
Roger Corman decided on a major change for this film. Instead of a fire, the usual finale for a Corman film of the period, he had the castle flooded instead. Corman's crew had come to look forward to "fire day".

Dennis Jakob doubled for Boris Karloff during the climactic castle flood.

A shot involving quicksand was directed by Jack Hill in his own backyard. The quicksand was originally planned for the death of Jonathan Haze's character, until it was decided to have him attacked by a falcon.

Roger Corman shot the bulk of the film in four days, but the second-unit work was filmed over a nine month period by five directors, Francis Ford Coppola, Dennis Jakob, Monte Hellman, Jack Nicholson, and Jack Hill.

The original theater poster warned its patrons: "No one will be admitted while the coffin is being opened!"
