The odd symbol that appears again and again - on Wilbur's ring, on his grandfather's staff, in the design on the main floor, etc. - is actually an ancient Native American symbol commonly termed "Thunderbird in sun".
"The Dunwich Horror" was one of the last on camera acting appearances by Ed Begley. This underrated character actor passed away in 1970, the year of the film's release.
AIP had previously wanted Mario Bava to direct an earlier, proposed version of this film, titled "Scarlet Friday", that would have starred Boris Karloff (with whom Bava had made Black Sabbath (1963)) and Christopher Lee (who had been the star of Bava's Hercules in the Haunted World (1961) and The Whip and the Body (1963)). The project was taken away from the director after the disastrous US theatrical run of Dr. Goldfoot and the Girl Bombs (1966).
Two sound-stages were used for Sandra Dee's nude scene to prevent "peeping toms." One sound-stage was used to shoot the scene and the other was used to house the cast not needed in the shot.
Originally announced as a Mario Bava project in 1963.
"Wilbur Whateley: Come back, Old Ones... Princes of Darkness... and repossess the earth."
"Wilbur Whateley: The Old Ones are not truly dead. They only sleep. It is a dreamless oblivion, stretching on and on towards vast eternity! Nancy Wagner: [yawning] Sorry. Feel so funny, all of a sudden. Like I could sleep for eternity too!"
