## Trivia

* The reason the show's main setting is an amusement park is because Hamish thought it was a unique setting, and hasn't really been done before. Another reason for this is that the original "Dead End" web short took place in a haunted mansion.
* There are 13 planes; Divine, Empyrean, Paradiso, Naraka, Disarray, Echoss, Earth, Bathmos, Doress, Necropolis, Gagen, Dudael, and Tartarus.
* Barney, throughout the entirety of the first season, lived at the park for three weeks.
	+ Episodes 6 through 10 take place over the course of two days.
* With the concept of Pugsley and Courtney running and talking around the park around people; a cut idea was an elaborate explanation as to how one of them casted some sort of enchantment over the park populous. It was too complicated, though, and the show creators realized it was funnier just to have the patrons either freak out in their presence or just assume they're mascots.
* Echo, a species and character originating from the graphic novels, was cut from the show, as the creators felt the story of him fit better with Pugsley.
* There was an episode idea where Pugsley was abducted by a cult who worshipped him, but it was cut as the creators felt it was too extreme.
	+ Another cut episode idea involved Pugsley befriending petting zoo animals that end up being were-humans.
