  • The title is a reference to the song of the same name by R&B singer Mark Morrison.
  • Rip frequently acts like Arthur Conan Doyle's character Sherlock Holmes, such as deducing a number of things based on a cadaver's appearance, as well as using one of his catchphrases, "the game's afoot".
  • In the morgue, Jax pretends to have an English accent. His actor, Franz Drameh, is actually British.
  • Mick Rory is reading Bram Stoker's Dracula throughout the episode. His actor, Dominic Purcell, portrayed Dracula in the 2004 film Blade: Trinity, based on characters from Marvel Comics.
  • Mick ties garlic around his neck and Sara quips that he's a "regular Van Helsing", Nate explaining him to be a character from Dracula.
  • When searching for the supposed vampire, Nate hopes for a "Kristen Stewart-type, all broody and sparkly", referring to Edward Cullen and elements from the Twilight saga.
  • Sir Henry Stein quotes a line from Act 2, Scene 2 of William Shakespeare's Macbeth.
  • There were two total lunar eclipses in 1895: May 18 and November 11. However, only the November one was visible from London, England, almost coinciding with the episode's airdate of November 7.[1][2]
  • Nate suggests they prop Darhk "up in a convertible like Weekend at Bernie's", referencing the 1989 film.
  • When Dahrk "rises" from the coffin that was holding him, the style (body straight and stiff from flat to 90 degrees) is exactly how the vampire Nosferatu from F. W. Murnau's 1922 silent film classic, Nosferatu, rises out of his coffin.
