Although anthology and portmanteau horror movies had been around a while, this installment debuted just after the success of Macabras historias de horror (1982), which had made an even bigger splash during the video rental boom. This is what the surrounding wraparound story of this movie is about.
Stanley A. Long has said that US $150,000 cash to finance the footage shot in New York City was nearly lost for good when his brother forgot a briefcase with the banknotes in it at the city's heliport. The key creatives of the film raced back in a taxi to find that the stash was still luckily there untouched.
Final theatrical feature film of actress Ann Lynn who continued to appear in some television series episodes until around 1996.
Advertisements for the movie's theatrical release dub the segments "Puppet Massacre", "Garden of the Walking Dead" and "Honeymoon Blood Bath".
Actress Veronica Doran, who plays the psychic Miss Burns in the ''Dream House'' segment, was previously in The Haunted House of Horror (1969) from the same writer and co-director Michael Armstrong of this picture.
