The film entered the PublicDomain in 2019; consequently, it may be viewed [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FC6jFoYm3xs in its entirety]] on Website/{{YouTube}}. A re-scored version with ProgressiveRock music by Creator/IsaacBaranoff can be viewed online. In 2017, a version called ''[[http://nonsilentfilm.com/en/ Nosferatu: The Non Silent Film]]'' was created by Brazilian agency [=AlmapBBDO=] and Punch Audio, which not only re-scores the film but also layers on sound effects and voice clips from Getty Images' massive audio library (a trailer can be seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFUbKJ64BKo&t=25s here]]).

Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup


* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Orlok? Orlock? Both spellings have been used frequently, though the former ''seems'' to be the correct one.

Annie is Ellen’s close female friend, so I don’t see how that isn’t analogous to Lucy


** The film's equivalents of Van Helsing, Holmwood and Seward only appear in scenes that do not relate to the overall plot, and they never learn that Orlok is a vampire. However, they're better off than Quincy and Lucy, who [[AdaptedOut don't have counterparts at all]]. Annie is often viewed as Lucy's counterpart though. One English copy of the film even calls her as such.
