* TheFlameOfLife: Due to the way they made the special effects. In order to show the creature being created they made a model of the creature and melted it with fire, then ran the film backwards. As a result we can see the flames of life entering into the creature (where [[RealLifeWritesThePlot in reality]] it was the flame of the fire escaping from the model).

* ChemistryCanDoAnything: Despite Thomas Edison being more associated with electricity in PopularHistory, Frankenstein's monster being brought to life with electricity wouldn't be depicted until the 1930s. Edison's favorite scientific discipline was actually chemistry, so in this film Frankenstein creates the monster by pouring chemicals into a cauldron and watching the monster materialize out of it.
