The character "Dr. Polidori" is not taken from Mary Shelley's novel, but was a real-life acquaintance of hers. He started to write "The Vampyre" in the same weekend that she got the idea to write "Frankenstein". The actual Polidori served as Lord Byron's doctor at the time, who mockingly referred to him as "Pollydolly", just like Clerval does in this television adaptation.
Christopher Isherwood and Don Bachardy published their original version of the teleplay for this movie, because they were so unhappy with the way it had turned out. The published script differs from the final movie in several ways. They were also unhappy with casting. They had requested that Jon Voight be offered the role of Victor Frankenstein, and their hope that John Boorman would be hired as director was also dashed.
The footage of the "Figaro" opera singer receiving applause is actually a shot of Susanna Foster's curtain call from Phantom of the Opera (1943).
The last movie of Michael Wilding (Sir Richard Fanshawe).
Uncredited appearance of Karl Howman as Victor Frankenstein's younger brother.
"Dr. Henry Clerval: You're afraid. I was afraid at first. It's the way we've been brought up. We've been brought up to fear! To fear the punishment of the gods. But Prometheus defied them. Dr. Victor Frankenstein: And they punished him! Dr. Henry Clerval: He scorned their punishment. So has every other hero that's stolen secrets from nature to give to mankind."
"Dr. Henry Clerval: The process is reversing itself!"
