* DeletedScene: In his DVDCommentary, director Dan Curtis explains that he dropped an entire 15-minute opening with the family in New York, seeing the ad about the house for rent in the paper and Ben getting a parking ticket, because it was "boring".
* FatalMethodActing: Averted. While shooting the film's finale, where Ben flies out the attic window and falls, the film's stuntman had a near-disastrous accident. He projected himself too far out from the window, and the crew waiting below had seconds to move the safety padding for his landing. The stunt man almost missed the padding, landing a mere foot or so from the end of it.
