Notes[]
- Though set in London, the film was shot at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles, California.
- Elsa Lanchester was well-known for having played the Bride in Bride of Frankenstein. One poster for Terror in the Wax Museum attempted to capitalize on this by proclaiming "Karloff is here! (in the wax museum)", though Boris Karloff does not appear in the film.
