 * The events of the episode parallel the well-publicized case of Susan Smith.
 * The old man that tells Butters how to walk back to South Park is based on Jud Crandall from Pet Sematary. He appears again in "[Asspen]" telling the boys about the mountain "K-13", and also in "Marjorine", in which he convinces Mr. Stotch to use an Indian burial ground in an attempt to resurrect Butters who was thought to be dead at the time.
 * When Butters is in the bathroom you hear the song It Feels So Good by Sonique.
 * This episode features samples from Warcraft II. When Butters is walking through the creepy road, there is a moment you can hear the same sound dragon units make in the game.
 * When Butters stops walking on the creepy road, three laser dots appear on his forehead forming a triangle. This is a reference to Predator, but the creature seen in the woods looked to be Alien.
