Trivia
This episode is a reference to the controversy of the Goosebumps books by R.L. Stine in the 1990's.

The parents of Elwood and real life wanted to ban the books because they were too scary for kids to read and according to P.A.W.S, causes nightmares but in reality Goosebumps weren't actually that scary and got a young generation to read.
