Darker and Edgier: The book has more violence, gore and satanic scenes than the classic Universal Monsters movies, by far.

Adaptational Villainy: As said before, Dracula's Daughter is more evil here. She even commands a satanic cult, presumably the same as the one in the 1935 Universal film The Black Cat. She uses babies' fat and human blood to make experiments. The satanic cult itself reveres "evil in all its forms".

Aborted Arc: With the exception of a brief line at the beginning, Larry Talbot never appears, and presumably he is hibernating in the custody of Caroline Cooke in her castle.

Took a Level in Badass
 The Devil's Brood / int_9bcd82c0
comment
Took a Level in Badass: Subverted. While he is not technically the same character, Wilfred Glendon III's werewolf form is more formidable than his grandfather's. Marya openly shows her vampiric powers, being the second most powerful vampire actually. Frankenstein's Monster, after being apparently killed by Dracula, fights fair against him.

Adaptational Jerkass: Marya Zaleska is more evil here than in her original film where she was a more sympathetic character comparable to Larry Talbot. She is openly satanic here and wants to be the Queen of the Darkness, now that Dracula is dead.

Came Back Wrong
 The Devil's Brood / int_b983a56b
comment
Came Back Wrong: Frankenstein's Monster, after his apparent death in the last novel, is resurrected using satanic rituals. This makes him evil, probably possessed; he enjoys killing people, mauling them easily. Marya needs him to mate with the Bride to create a race of superhuman slaves.
