A limited edition version of the album, which included a bonus DVD, was also released at the same time.

"Mitternacht", the album's debut single, once again featured the German synchronic speaker Christian Brückner, and helped make Finsternis into a top-ten hit in Germany in March 2002. The next single was the similarly popular "Das Tier in Mir (Wolfen)" followed by "Das Böse".

Finsternis also features the synchronis speakers for Robert De Niro, Gary Oldman, Samuel L. Jackson, Oliver Reed, Anthony Hopkins, Al Pacino, Michael Caine, John Malkovich, Nicolas Cage.

Angst is unique as it references Freddy Krueger from the A Nightmare on Elm Street series of slasher films.
