Critical analysis

*The episode contains several references to the 1898 novella by Henry James, entitled The Turn of the Screw.
*The roller coaster used in the main story is a Galaxi, a mass-produced transportable ride used equally in amusement parks and on carnival circuits. The particular roller coaster is named "Screaming Mummy", and operated at Pharaoh's Lost Kingdom from 2000 to 2006.
