All of the main vampire characters, save for Colin Robinson, wear custom-made vampire fangs that clip into attachments on their teeth. This was done to ensure that traditional prosthetic fangs would not hinder their speech patterns or pronunciation of words.
The theme song, "You're Dead," was originally released in 1966. The artist who released it is Norma Tanega as part of her album entitled "Walkin' My Cat Named Dog"; the album's title track hit #22 on the charts.
During an interview with Collider, Kayvan Novak described getting the part of Nandor. "I auditioned in London, and it was just a scene. On the breakdown, it said, "You don't have to wear fangs, but if you want to wear fangs, then wear fangs." So, I went out and bought some fangs, I did my hair like Nandor does his hair in the show, and I wore a white shirt with the top button done up."
Nandor passingly mentions someone named Count Fandango, which is a reference to a character in Matt Berry's earlier series, Toast of London.
Nadja marks the first time a female vampire has been a main character in the universe of "What We Do in the Shadows." In a panel at 2019 Comic-Con, series creators Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement admitted they had always planned to include female vampires in the original film, but were thwarted by a logistical challenge: Clement and Waititi had to ask a group of their friends to be part of the cast because they had no budget. Though they invited several of their female friends to participate, none of them showed up.
