The cape worn by Criswell, as The Emperor, is the same cape worn by Bela Lugosi as Count Dracula in Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948).
The film is based on the novel by Edward D. Wood Jr. which has no werewolf character in it, like in the film. Wood received $600 for the novel.
According to interviews conducted with the director, Criswell provided a coffin for himself, because one of his family members owned a funeral parlor. Criswell liked to take naps in his coffin between takes.
Belongs to the genre known as "nudie cuties", narrative-based films featuring female nudity. It was an evolution of earlier films, which featured striptease and burlesque shows. These predecessors mostly depicted actual stage performances, sometimes attached to a framing story.
Director Stephen C. Apostolof mentioned that Fawn Silver refused to do any nude scenes, but she did bring her own hairdresser and her own make-up man to the set. She was married to a motion picture attorney named Ron Silver, and her father was a wealthy industrialist who had bought out Republic Pictures. Despite this, she was trying to make it as an actress on her own, without any help from her father.
"[first lines] The Emperor: I am Criswell. For years, I have told the almost unbelievable, related the unreal and showed it to be more than a fact. Now I tell a tale of the threshold people, so astounding that some of you may faint. This is a story of those in the twilight time. Once human, now monsters, in a void between the living and the dead. Monsters to be pitied, monsters to be despised. A night with the ghouls, the ghouls reborn from the innermost depths of the world."
"The Emperor: Torture, torture! It pleasures me!"
