The German Expressionist Movement in German art strongly influenced this film. Expressionist painters drew buildings sloped at odd angles, oddly shaped furniture, yam.

The film’s set design reflected this style of composition. Buildings, doors and streets all slope at odd angles or are irregular shapes. Furniture is also oddly shaped. Chairs seats are six feet in the air, bookcases lean and chairs have irregular backs.

Robert Weine filmed in a standard continuity format making the story understandable to the average viewer. The story itself is a horror and detective story told from one man’s perspective, a story within a story.
