Cultural references

- Mr. Ratburn's haunted house references Edgar Allan Poe's stories.
- The doll, Bustrid jr.jr, resembles Robert.
Errors
- During U.S. airings on PBS, the opening title card is narrated by Ladonna, and she narrates, "Arthur and the Haunted Tree House, Part 1", but there is no Part 2 title card later on.
- When Ladonna is getting ready to leave Arthur's house, the pink sweatshirt from Mrs. Read that she is wearing briefly turns green.
Production notes
- It is one of two hour-long specials produced as part of the Oasis Animation production deal (alongside Seasons 20 and 21); the first being D.W. and the Beastly Birthday.
- Of the four Arthur specials, this is the first and only special to not feature musical segments with original songs.
