Trivia

The Halloween names (such as "Blood Curdling Cartwright") return to the closing credits.

This episode marks the second time Homer was cast to be a Marvel Super Hero character (which also was a beast-like character); the first time was in "I Am Furious Yellow", where he lost his temper and temporarily acted as The Incredible Hulk.

Referring to the remark about Homer talking about the previous episode, this also sort of happens in "Treehouse of Horror XI," where the Leprechaun from the first story, "Hex and the City", is seen on Bart's back in the "Wiz Kids" segment.
The scene where Professor Frink kicks his father in the crotch is similar to the second Scooby-Doo movie, where Velma kicks the Black Knight ghost in the crotch, saying it was his 'weak spot'. The film was released 4 months after the episode aired.

Parts of Frinkenstein include Snake's right arm, Sideshow Mel's hair (and scalp), Lenny's left arm^{[citation needed]}, and Comic Book Guy's Buttocks.

When Lisa uses the stopwatch at the end of "Stop the World, I Want to Goof Off" Bart changes back from his 25 year old self back to his 10 year old self without explanation.

"Stop the world I want to goof off" is a parody of the Twilight Zone episode “A Kind of a Stopwatch”.
"Reaper Madness" refers to the phrase/film Reefer Madness.

When the family are playing with the hula hoops, Bart moves from the floor to standing on his bed.
Before Professor Frink kicks his father, Professor Frink is wearing the Nobel Prize. When his father is on the ground after being kicked, his father is wearing the Nobel Prize.
