I would say the first cycle, which started with the release of Dracula in February 1931.

Dracula (1931)
Frankenstein (1931)
The Mummy (1932)
Murders in the Rue Morgue (1932)
The Old Dark House (1932)
The Invisible Man (1933)
The Black Cat (1934)
The Raven (1935)
Werewolf of London (1935)
Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
Dracula's Daughter (1936)
The Invisible Ray (1936)

The second cycle started with Son of Frankenstein in 1939.

The second wave actually saw more films produced than the first wave. I may have accidentally omitted some films on either of the lists.

I added the Abbott and Costello picture even though it came after the 1939-1946 time frame. It capped off the Frankenstein series, and included Lugosi, Chaney and Carradine in its cast.

Son of Frankenstein (1939)
Tower of London (1939)
Black Friday (1940)
The Invisible Man Returns (1940)
The Invisible Woman (1940)
The Mummy's Hand (1940)
Man Made Monster (1941)
The Wolf Man (1941)
The Black Cat (1941)
The Ghost of Frankenstein (1942)
Invisible Agent (1942)
The Mummy's Tomb (1942)
Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943)
Phantom of the Opera (1943)
Son of Dracula (1943)
Captive Wild Woman (1943)
The Mad Ghoul (1943)
Calling Dr. Death (1943)
Weird Woman (1944)
Dead Man's Eyes (1944)
The Climax (1944)
House of Frankenstein (1944)
The Invisible Man's Revenge (1944)
The Mummy's Ghost (1944)
The Mummy's Curse (1944)
House of Dracula (1945)
