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.
- The cathedral set from the Hunchback of Notre Dame was also used in the Sunday church scene in The Wolf Man.
- Once transformed, the Wolf Man (Lon Chaney Jr.) is seen in a dress shirt; even though while he transformed he was only wearing an under shirt. He must have changed off-camera after transforming to appear more formal, since after all he was the star of The Wolf Man.
