Correction: Larry is wearing a long sleeve shirt when he is tied down. The only time he is seen with a t-shirt is when he goes through his first transformation.

Corrected entry: The Wolf Man steps in a steel trap. The jaws have snapped shut above his ankle. As he rolls around on the ground, the trap is shown to have snapped shut between the ankle & the toes. When the gypsy woman shows up, the trap is again shut above the ankle.

Correction: After closely watching this scene again, it was determined that the trap remains above the ankle the entire time.

Continuity mistake: When Larry is taken home after being bitten by the werewolf, the door opens and Larry is seen staggering in. In the next shot, the door is seen opening again.

Question: At the time that this movie was made, nobody knew what made a werewolf, what could kill a werewolf, or when a werewolf would appear. Who decided that these things could happen?
