Behind the scenes

 * The episode title is derived from Prince's 1982 song "1999," in which he said he wants to "Party like it's 1999," which was originally referring to a nuclear apocalypse prediction in 2000, but later changed to the more familiar use of end of the century party.
 * The episode is partly inspired by the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! episode "Haunted House Hang-Up."
 * As a result of being written as the second episode, it has also been aired as the second episode outside of the United States, instead of "Game of Chicken."
 * Just like her original incarnation, Daphne is revealed to have a wealthy family.
 * This is the first episode of Be Cool not to feature The Mystery Machine.
 * A special thanks is given to Joe Ruby and Ken Spears, who had nothing to do with this episode, but did create the original series, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!

Everlasting influence

 * * It is revealed in "Professor Huh? Part 6 3/4," that the case at Wuthering Manor was one of many cases that led Rose to turn against Fred, because he was always outdoing her even though she was a professional detective.
