## Trivia

* For "Bikini Bottom After Midnight," mentions of the words "Slavery" or "Slaves" is censored due to the heavy controversy the episode received. However, unlike the VHS, this episode retains the scenes containing blood and the missing elements of the climax.
	+ This is also the case with 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.
	+ 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 DVD was released 2 weeks before the namesake holiday.
* Two pairs of episodes appear on this DVD as follows:
	+ "Scaredy Pants"/"I Was a Teenage Gary"
	+ "The Graveyard Shift"/"Frankendoodle"

* This DVD was re-released in a Holidays with SpongeBob DVD box set on November 15, 2011, as well as when it was re-released on September 9, 2014, and in the SpongeBob ScaryPants Collection DVD box set released on September 9, 2014.
* This is the first DVD for three things:
	+ The first DVD not to include episodes that were unaired at the time of its release.
	+ The first DVD to be holiday themed.
	+ The first DVD to be released by Paramount Metropolis.

* There are no previews on this DVD

* The credits do not come after the last episode on this disc, unlike most other DVDs. The only ways to see the credits are to access them through the special features menu or by following these steps:
	1. Select "Episode Selection" on the main menu.
	2. Before selecting "Bonus Episodes," press right, down, and right.
	3. Select "Bonus Episodes."
	4. Before selecting "The Box of Imagination," press down, right, up, left, and right.
	5. Select "The Box of Imagination."

* There have been reports of some 2011 copies having the 2002 disc, though no photos exist of this.
* This DVD came with a SpongeBob-themed Hershey's chocolate bar before the bar was discontinued in 2006.
	+ 2002 copies came with this with wrapping for the sweepstakes "Nick or Treat."
* "Frankendoodle" and "The Box of Imagination" uses their Noggin airings, meaning that Squidward doesn't make any crazy insults to SpongeBob or Patrick.
	+ This is also the first DVD to have Nickelodeon and Noggin counterparts, but not Nick Jr. counterparts.
	+ "Frankendoodle" uses its regular Nickelodeon version on the VHS though.

### Errors

* The cover says that there's 10 episodes on this DVD, while in reality, there's 9. However, if one were to split "Bikini Bottom After Midnight" into two episodes, then the episode count would be 10.
	+ 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, neither of those episodes are on this DVD
