Dracula's early morning visit with Dr Edelmann.

Talbot's tranformation in the jail cell.

Dr Edelmann attacked by the Wolf Man while searching for him in the underground cave. And also discovering the Monster.

Dracula putting Miliza under his spell.

Dracula reversing the blood transfusion with Edelmann.

Dr Edelmann pushing Dracula's coffin into the sunlight.

Dr Edlmann's image vanishing while looking in the mirror.

Edelmann's Hyde like character jumping in the back of Siegfried's wagon and murdering him. Plus the chase in the village.

Talbot looking at the full moon and he doesn't change into a werewolf.

I'll include the climax where Dr Edelmann kills Nina and is shot by Talbot. Then the monster picks Edelmann up finds out he is dead and goes on a rampage.

But I was little disappointed with it because the Monster didn't have much to do except slam a constable into the electric machinery, and then Talbot pushes over a shelf with chemicals and it traps the Monster in flames.

Most of the fire scenes were taken from "The Ghost of Frankenstein"

Over all though, I think it's an entertaining horror film.

I can't add much to Dan's list, it's pretty complete!

I like House of Frankenstein a little better than House of Dracula, but both are great Universal creature classics, filled with monsters from top to bottom! The gaunt Carradine is perfect as Count Dracula.
