      Storyline

      Did you know

      • Trivia
        Sir Christopher Lee and Dennis Wheatley had been friends since the 1950s. The movie was made at Lee's insistence that Hammer make a movie based on a Wheatley fantasy novel.
      • Goofs
        During the opening credits, a symbol is shown that is not Satanic, and it is also incorporated into the symbol on the priestly robes during the film. Inscribed within a Star of David, there is a six-winged seraph with the faces of a man, lion, ox and eagle based on the vision of Ezechiel. In Christian tradition, the four faces become associated with the four gospel writers: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
      • Quotes
        • Marie Eaton: [to her servant about Mocata] Show him out!
        • Mocata: I'm leaving.
        • [walks towards door and stands behind Marie]
        • Mocata: *I* shall not be back... but something will.
        • [pauses menacingly]
        • Mocata: Tonight! Something will come for Simon and the girl!
        • [leaves]
      • Alternate versions
        The 2012 UK Blu-ray Disc released by Studio Canal features digitally enhanced special effects. The makers of the Blu-ray claim to complete shots which had never been finished due to budget reasons:
        • Matte shot of Simon's mansion with the Observatory dome has been replaced with a CGI background.
        • During the ritual at the climax of the movie a lighting has been replaced with a new CGI lightning.
        • Spider sequence: Shadow for the spider has been added, some matte shots enhanced, and digital smoke added when the spider is sprayed with holy water.
        • The Angel of Death sequence: A light effect is illuminating the door to cover the poor original optical effect when the angel rides through the door. The close up of the Angel of Death has a new background with flames as the original intended shot was never finished.
        • The matte shots of Charley Grey's death in the fire have been digitally corrected as there were optical errors in the layers of the matte shots.
        • Several other matte shots have been improved by removing matte lines.
