Trivia

• Shelby states that it is 349 days until the next Christmas, placing Christmasween on January 10 if this episode is not set in a leap year, and January 11 if it is.
• The live-action hand that smashes the Boyster clay model belongs to Tobias von Burkersroda, a former 3-D animation supervisor.
• Richard calls Larry a vampire because of the price. Technically the term "vampire" in his sentence means a highway robbery.
• "Christmasween" is a combination between "Christmas" and "Halloween".

Cultural References

• The occasional narration in this episode follows the rhyme and meter of the famous and frequently parodied poem known as "The Night Before Christmas."
• The really depressed version of Shelby resembles how early black-and-white cartoons looked like.
• The episode and Mr. Pluss's evil grin is a reference to the Grinch from How the Grinch Stole Christmas (both the book and the Chuck Jones cartoon).
• The teacher comes out of the drawer in a style of Count Dracula coming out of his coffin.
• When Shelby summons the Christmasweenwurst, this is a reference to the transformation scene of the 90's anime Sailor Moon.
• "The Night Before Christmasween" is likely a reference to Rankin/Bass stop-motion Christmas specials, such as Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
• The scene that showed Boyster as a clay figurine and being crushed by a live-action human hand could be a reference to Mr. Bill.
