== Bloopers and continuity errors ==
* In the teaser, the concluding stinger music is played too early. It is played after Barnabas says, "Willie!" but Barnabas still has a line to say after the music ends ("If you touch that body, I will kill you!"). The teaser then ends with no further music.
* At the beginning of Act I, Jonathan Frid mispronounces Collinwood as "Collinswood."
* When Willie and Barnabas are arguing in Act I, a boom mic shadow can be seen moving across the covered body on the experiment table.
* Jonathan Frid flubs: "No point in trying to prevent that something that cannot happen."
* On the terrace, a boom microphone shadow can be seen on the pillar behind and to the right of Victoria as she discusses Jeff and Joe with Maggie.
* A boom mic shadow can be seen as Willie enters Maggie's room.
* As Willie talks to Maggie when she sits on her bed, when he says the words "people" and "plans," Maggie's hair blows back as he pronounces each "p".
* In the scene between Maggie and Willie, Kathryn Leigh Scott flubs a line: "Willie has...Barnabas has plans that will put me into danger."
* The number 423 inexplicably appears on the wall to the right of the basement door as Barnabas opens it. 
* In Act IV, when both Willie and Barnabas enter the Old House cellar space where the glass cabinet sits, an edge of one of the walls can be seen. The edge is unfinished and can clearly be seen to be made of wood rather than cement. 
* At the end of the episode, right before Adam's voice-over, there is a loud thumping noise from off-stage.
