* WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants: In a 2021 podcast interview, former ''Van Helsing'' screenwriter Eric Heisserer confirmed that the people hired for the writing room generally had quite frankly no idea what they were doing. As Heisserer reports, a sizable number of the writers couldn't make up their minds as to whether all the monsters the movies centered around should be heroes or villains, at least one writer straight up suggested that they'd all 'build the plane while it was flying', and Heisserer himself as well as fellow writer John Spaihts appeared to be the [[OnlySaneMan only sane men]] in the writing room.

In January 2019, the series was confirmed dead, with Universal moving to a new plan of director-driven standalone films.
