| Goofs | At the beginning of the film, the annual tradition of showing the original The Town That Dreaded Sundown plays at a drive-in. In real life, it is played at Spring Lake Park which is not a drive-in theater. Cars are parked in the parking lot and the audience views the film in portable chairs or on blankets in an open field.
