Did you know

• Both the film Trilogy of Terror (1975) and this film were the pilots for a horror anthology TV series that was also going to be titled "Dead of Night", but was never made.

• The film's third segment, "Bobby", was later remade as the second segment of Trilogy of Terror II (1996), another horror anthology film that was directed by Dan Curtis just as this film was and the first film in the series, Trilogy of Terror (1975), had been 22 years earlier (with that first film originally released two years before this one).

• The incidental music at the beginning of the film is borrowed from Dead of Night: A Darkness at Blaisedon (1969), what was supposed the pilot for a horror TV series with the same name as the film that was produced by Dan Curtis in 1969, but was never released as such. This pilot was officially released for the first time ever as a bonus feature on the film's DVD release by Dark Sky Films in 2009.
