Trivia[]

This is the fourth special to be a clip show.
Despite the fact that this is a Halloween-themed special, not every Halloween episode is included. "Séance Shméance" is not included.
Scenes from 18 different episodes from various seasons were used.
- Ghoul Fools and The Night Patty were the only episodes to have two scenes used in the special.

4 by 3 house worming on nickeldoeon oh ok — "House Worming" cropped in 4:3.

In this special, a clip from "House Worming" was shown in a cropped 4:3 aspect ratio, despite the episode being originally produced in 16:9 HDTV/widescreen.
All of Potty's lines are archival recordings reused from previous episodes.

Every time the outside of Patchy's house is shown in this special, it's a night time shot taken straight from the ending of "The Sponge Who Could Fly." The only differences being is that it's cropped to widescreen and doesn't have a SpongeBob constellation above Patchy's house.
To date, this is the last episode where Patchy the Pirate and Potty the Parrot appear in live-action until "A Very Patchy Holiday Stream Special."
This is the first stand-alone Halloween special.
