影片疏失:
- Anachronisms: At the beginning of the movie one of Murnau's assistants calls him one of the greatest moviemakers ever, with D.W. Griffith and Sergei M. Eisenstein. In 1921 Eisenstein had not yet directed any movie (his first movie is from 1923).
- Continuity: A woman walks in with two Pekingese, which she hands to two men on opposite sides of her. The dogs swap places twice between shots.
- Continuity: After they film Gustav entering the castle, he is talking in the doorway with Murnau and Grau. Murnau and Grau then walk into the courtyard where Gustav is already waiting for them.
- Continuity: In the final scene the pillows on the bed are piled up, yet when the actress goes to lay down on the bed, they need to be piled up again.
- Continuity: In the titles on screen (as in a silent film), the first time the Count's name is listed as "Orlock"; midway through the film, when there are titles again, it's spelled "Orlok".
- Continuity: When Murnau converses with Greta in the beginning, the length of her cigarette changes inconsistently from shot to shot.
- Continuity: You can see a reflection of Count Orlock's head in the mirror moments after a big deal was made about the fact that he cast no reflection in the same mirror (although this is possibly a deliberate nod to Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens (1922) in which a similar error was made).
- Factual errors: Morphine is shown in the film to induce a hysterical, near-orgasmic reaction. Yet in reality it would induce drowsiness and unrousability.
