    • Trivia
      Released on May 17, 1946 as part of a double bill with The Cat Creeps (1946). Universal Pictures, unlike most major studios, lacked a proprietary theater chain and often sold it's B-picture horror/mystery pictures as double bills, making weak pictures more attractive and economical for independent theaters to advertise.
    • Goofs
      The first time Martha Winthrop brings up a glass of milk to Phyllis Allenby, the glass is half full as she walks up the stairs to the bedroom, but after she opens the door and enters the room, the glass is nearly full to the top.
    • Quotes

      Phyllis Allenby: I feel terribly sleepy as if I'd been drugged.

      Martha Winthrop: You're right. I drugged you.

      Phyllis Allenby: So I wouldn't hear the dogs?

      Martha Winthrop: No Phyllis. I'm going to kill you.

    • Crazy credits
      On the original trailer, June Lockhart is given top billing. On the film itself, Don Porter is given top billing.

    Entertaining Mystery Movie but with neither Horror nor She-Wolf

    In the turn of the century in London, the aristocratic lawyer Barry Lanfield (Don Porter) proposes to marry the heiress Phyllis Allenby (June Lockhart) and she accepts. Phyllis lives in the family manor with her "aunt" Martha Winthrop (Sara Haden), her pseudo-niece Carol Winthrop (Jan Wiley) and the housemaid Hannah (Eily Malyon).

    Out of the blue, dreadful murders happen in a nearby park and Detective Latham (Eily Malyon) believes that they are victims of a werewolf or a she-wolf, but his superior Inspector Pierce (Dennis Hoey) says that they are victims of an animal. Meanwhile, Phyllis finds blood on her hands, and her shoes and clothing dirty and she believes that she may be killing people under the influence of a family curse. Who might be the serial-killer?

    "She-Wolf of London" is an entertaining mystery movie but with neither horror nor she-wolf as the title suggests. The dramatic story is not bad but frustrates fans of horror movies. My vote is six.

    Title (Brazil): "A Mulher-Lobo de Londres" ("The She-Wolf of London")
