影片花絮:
- Count Orlock (Willem Dafoe) recites Tennyson's poem 'Tithonus' at one point: 'The woods decay, the woods decay and fall, the vapors weep their burthen to the ground...' This is apropos, because the poem is about a character from Greek mythology who was immortal even though he continued to age. Just like Orlock, this made him a tragic figure.
- The locomotive that conveys the film crew to Czechoslovakia is named "Charon." In Greek myth, Charon was the ferryman who conveyed the souls of the dead across the river Styx.
- The part of Max Shreck was written specifically for Willem Dafoe
