[edit] Plot summary

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

The film is set in a wax museum, where the night watchman is secretly being drained of small amounts of blood by his mad scientist boss each time he falls asleep on the job. The mad scientist experiments on dead people, hiding the bodies by covering them with wax and putting them on display. The mad scientist obtains a mummy and tries his experiments on it, resulting in a revived mummy that is actually a werewolf. After transforming, the werewolf spends most of the movie plaguing the night watchman.

Spoilers end here.

[edit] Trivia

Footage from La Casa del Terror was combined with footage from La Momia Azteca in order to create Face of the Screaming Werewolf.
