Notes/Trivia

 * This episode marks the first appearance of Scooby-Doo's alter-ego Lightning Dog.
 * There are several references to the DC Comics character Batman.
 * The Amanojaku/Hubert is voiced by Tim Curry (who was originally going to play the Joker in Tim Burton's Batman and Batman: The Animated Series) and Mark Hamill (who had voiced the Joker in Batman: The Animated Series and various other Batman related projects).
 * The way the Amanojaku's victims acted when they were infected by his toxin is similar to how Maka acted when she was overtaken by madness in Soul Eater.
