• While Charlie Manx looks at his map, several of the locations seen on the map are connected to works by both Joe Hill himself and Hill's father, Stephen King. Derry, Maine, is marked as "Pennywise Circus". Derry, Maine is the setting of Stephen King's "IT". Pennywise and Manx both like to steal children using seemingly innocent ideas turned deadly (clowns, and Christmas respectively). And both exist in places where reality is thin. "The treehouse of the mind", is also featured in Joe Hill's second published novel "Horns", and according to Hill himself is both an inscape and also a means to access the inscape, much like the Wraith in NOS4A2. "Lovecraft keyhole", probably refers to Joe Hill's comic book "Locke & Key", which takes place in the fictional town of Lovecraft, and where keys and keyholes play a significant role.

• In the show, Charlie Manx's appearance only rotates between 5 different ages. They are approximately 40 years old, 65 years old, 80 years old, 100 years old and 135 years old. The different ages illustrate how long it's been since he "fed" on a child. If he's young, he has just "fed" on a child's health or hasn't used his powers much. If he's old, it's been awhile since he has "fed" on a child or he's been using his powers a great deal.

• According to photographer and historian Joseph D. Conwill, in the United States only 672 historic covered bridges remain from over 10,000 constructed during the 18th to the 20th century.
