* InspirationForTheWork: In an interview with Creator/PeterBogdanovich, Creator/AlfredHitchcock revealed that this movie was inspired by a legend of an Englishwoman who went with her daughter to the Palace Hotel in Paris in the 1880s, at the time of the Great Exposition:
-->The woman was taken sick and they sent the girl across Paris to get some medicine in a horse-vehicle, so it took about four hours. When she came back she asked, "How's my mother?" "What mother?" "My mother. She's here, she's in her room. Room 22". They go up there. Different room, different wallpaper, everything. And the payoff of the whole story is, so the legend goes, that the woman had bubonic plague and they dared not let anybody know she died, otherwise all of Paris would have emptied.
* OrphanedReference: In the original cut, as seen in the 25th Anniversary national re-release of 1963, Charters and Caldicott have to share the same pair of pajamas in the hotel after Charters has accidentally dropped his in the water jug. In later years and showings, this innocent preamble has been snipped out, and there is a cut straight to them in bed together. Though we can still see Charters' pajamas hanging up to dry, the explanation has disappeared.

* HostilityOnTheSet: There was friction between Creator/MichaelRedgrave, who, with his stage background, wanted to rehearse as much as possible, and Creator/AlfredHitchcock, who preferred a looser approach to acting. Despite this film being a StarMakingRole for Redgrave, he never worked with Hitchcock again.
