What's left behind the scenes
- Unlike the original source material, Mina is the daughter of Dr. Seward, and Lucy is his niece.
- Some scenes parody the film "Dracula" (1992), for example, Dracula's shadow sometimes behaves too independently. And in some scenes, Leslie Nielsen delivers Bela Lugosi's lines verbatim, but with different intonation.
- 150 liters of fake blood were spilled during the scene of driving a stake into the heart.
- The heroine's name, Ann Bancroft, Madame Ouspenskaya, is a reference to the actress Maria Ouspenskaya, who played a Gypsy in the classic Hollywood horror films “The Wolf Man” (1941) and “Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man” (1943).
- During the ball scene, Dracula requests a csárdás, but the orchestra plays “Hungarian Dance No. 5” by Johannes Brahms.
