My memory of Freaks is a little rusty, but as I recall, it was filmed in
about 1932, shortly after Dracula (also by Browning), and nearly ruined
his career.   The beginning and end were probably tacked on to placate
the studio.  The film wound up tied up in contract dispute and was 
unavailable even to colleges until the mid 1960's.
