References to Popular CultureEdit

• At the beginning of this episode, the kids are seen in the computer lab playing Call of Duty: World at War.
• The burning of Hot Topic is a reference to the burning of the vampire cave in the movie The Lost Boys.
• Mike Makowski's name is an allusion to the Monsters Inc character, Mike Wazowski.
• The scene when Butters enters through Eric's window to "feed" could be a possible reference to the Stephen King book and the 1979 miniseries Salem's Lot.

ContinuityEdit

• The scene where the boy is asking where his ball is bears a resemblance to the scene where Craig was asking for the football in the episode "The List".
• The Goth Kids are mistaken for Vampires in this episode. They are mistaken for "Emo Kids" in "Goth Kids 3: Dawn of the Posers". This is in reference to how "outsiders" often find it difficult to distinguish between these groups.

GoofsEdit

• Towards the end of the episode, where Butters comes home from the mall, Stephen Stotch asks his son, "Would you mind telling me why there's Rice-A-Roni in my coffee?!"

When he replaces the spoon, there is still only one in the coffee mug.
• Butters runs into the computer lab from the right, but when the camera zooms in, it shows him coming from the left.
• When Henrietta is shown in the office with the other Goth Kids, she is shown wearing lipstick. When she finishes talking her lipstick is gone. After she and the Goth Kids leave the office she is shown wearing lipstick again.
