Larry Talbot (aka the Wolf Man played by Lon Chaney Jr.) visits his father (Sir John Talbot played by Claude Rains) in Wales. Larry saves the woman he loves (Gwen Conliffe played by Evelyn Ankers) from a werewolf (Bela played by Bela Lugosi) attack and is bitten in the scuffle. He then goes on a rampage in the Wales countryside in The Wolf Man movie.
- Losing the role a week before the movie The Wolf Man was to begin shooting, Dick Foran would have otherwise have ended up being the Wolf Man. (Eventually played by Lon Chaney Jr.)
- A trailer for The Wolf Man showed a scene with the Wolf Man (Lon Chaney Jr.) fighting a bear. There weren't many shots of the fight, since the bear escaped during the shoot and the bear scene was eventually cut from the movie.
