The only episode where one member (David) was absent from the storytelling.
The only episode to have a scene before the introduction (Gary and Kristen are at his dad's magic shop before the group is shown at the campfire site in the woods).
The first appearance of the opening that was to be used throughout the remainder of the series (shots of a moored boat, a moving playground swing, a house and attic, during a storm, a door threatening to start opening, and a hand holding a match). This was also the first of eight to exclude background music and show the hand with the match slide into view before it disappeared replaced by lightning and the title, rather than showing the hand with the match that lights itself.
One of twenty-one episodes where the Midnight Society didn't leave and douse the fire with the water-bucket (the last shot was of Gary, Kristen, and David shaking hands).
Marybeth and Weeds wear the clothes Kristen and Gary wore in the magic shop earlier when the discussion inspired the scene (and the story).
In the episode Rachell Glait who played The Dark Lady/Phantom would appear later in the season 4 episode "The Tale of the Long Ago Locket" as Mrs. Ritter.
This episode marks the first appearance of Sardo. His next appearance would be in the episode "The Tale of the Dark Dragon".
