Trivia & References
At the Creation Con in Chicago in November 2008, Jared and Jensen related the following anecdote:
Jim was lying in a hospital bed, trying to deliver his lines to Jensen and Jared, and just off camera, Jared was trying to make him mess up by playing with his toes while he was lying there. ... Jensen said Jared was playing “This Little Piggy Went to Market” and everything. Despite the distraction from Jared, Jensen said Jim delivered his lines perfectly and then as soon as the cameras stopped, yelled “What’s wrong with you?” to Jared. Jared said that Jim has “toes of steel” and that he was very impressed and will have to step up his game.
From the report by efh.In October 2007 it was announced in an article that this episode would feature the character Jason Vorhees from the Friday the 13th movies:
- "We have Jason from Friday the 13th, the character with the hockey mask," show creator Eric Kripke tells the "Supernatural" fanzine. "He shows up in episode 10. We have cleared the rights to actually use Jason. We have a twist on it so it is not really Jason out there but we have found an interesting way to bring him in so Sam and Dean fight Jason from Friday the 13th. In our world, that is a pretty cool guest star."
Sera Gamble revealed in several interviews, that the basic idea behind this episode has been around for quite a while, and that she originally conceived it with fellow co-writer Raelle Tucker, who left the series at the end of Season 2.
Minutiae
- When Sam leaves the house in Bobby's dreamworld, he encounters a color-saturated, bright world, in complete contrast to Supernatural's usual color filter. The same bright saturation and bright colors have been used in Dean's Wish Verse in episode 2.20 What Is and What Should Never Be - even the flowers (yellow and red tulips) are the same, invoking an idyll of peace and quiet.
