*In his opening editorial, A.C. Farley mentions H. P. Lovecraft's The Shadow Over Innsmouth, the story that this comic was heavily inspired by. 
*The character who fights against the cult is named Clark Ashton Allard, a nod to Clark Ashton Smith. In the prologue, he uses his computer to access some files involving the Necronomicon.
*April and Casey are held hostage in a library annex called the "Whatley House", named after the Whateley family from "The Dunwich Horror".
*In the climax of the story, the vampire cult takes Allard to Innsmouth and attempts to use him as a sacrifice. Although they manage to successfully awaken their god, Dagon is banished using the artifact that summoned him before he can destroy humanity like they planned.
