## Trivia

* This is the first VHS for four things:
	+ The first VHS to be sold at Books-A-Million.
	+ The first VHS to include a season 2 episode.
	+ The first VHS to be holiday themed.
	+ The first VHS to be released by Paramount-Metropolis.

* For "Bikini Bottom After Midnight," all of the more "nasty" bits (mentions of the words "Slavery" or "Slaves," blood, and half of the torture sequence) is cut or censored due to the heavy controversy the episode received.
	+ This is also the case with this VHS's DVD counterpart, The Complete 1st Season, and The First 100 Episodes.

* All of the episodes from season one are in the reverse production order, meaning that "Bikini Bottom After Midnight" was the last episode of that season to be produced.
	+ The rest are all in production order of their respective seasons.
* This VHS was released 2 weeks before the namesake holiday.
* All of the episodes from season one are in the reverse production order, meaning that "Bikini Bottom After Midnight" was the last episode of that season to be produced.
	+ However, it was **not** the last episode of the season overall to be made, since "Nature Pants," "Hooky," "Sleepy Time" and "Opposite Day" were produced afterwards.
	+ The rest are all in production order of their respective seasons.
* This VHS was released 2 weeks before the namesake holiday.

### Errors

* The cover says that there's 5 episodes on this VHS, while in reality, there's 4. However, if one were to split "Bikini Bottom After Midnight" into two episodes, then the episode count would be 5.
	+ Regardless, this error was fixed on later releases, with the bottom bar saying "A Spooky Double-Length Episode and 3 Hilariously Haunted Stories"

* In a trailer promoting this and "Rugrats: Halloween," it shows clips from "Something Smells" and "Wormy." However, none of those episodes are on this VHS.
	+ In fact, those two episodes never **had** a VHS release, not counting Undersea Antics Volume 1, only DVD and Blu-ray.
