The studio hired two additional comedians to add laughs between takes on the set.
Lou Costello did not want to film the movie, declaring, "No way I'll do that crap. My little girl could write something better than this."

The opening scene of "London", then "Big Ben" is followed by a constable on patrol. This shot was lifted from Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man in the scene a constable finds the unconscious Lawrence Talbot after his "resurrection", that same constable is murdered by the Wolf Man the following night.
