Theda Bara's first starring role.
One of only a handful of Theda Bara films that still exist, the others being The Unchastened Woman (1925), The Stain (1914), East Lynne (1916), and two short comedies she made for Hal Roach in the mid-1920s.
The first time the line "Kiss me, you fool!" appeared in a film.
Other actresses considered by director Frank Powell as the vamp were Valeska Suratt and Madlaine Traverse. He almost settled on Virginia Pearson before giving it to Theda Bara.
The poem quoted throughout the film is "The Vampire" by Rudyard Kipling.
"The Vampire: Kiss me, my Fool!"
"Reginal Parmalee: You have ruined me, you devil, and now you discard me!"
