* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The show has had only three VHS releases in its lifetime and has never been released on DVD, nor on [=iTunes=], Creator/{{Hulu}}, Creator/{{Netflix}}, or Creator/PrimeVideo, likely because of the rights issues concerning the animated shorts that would play in each episode. Because of this, full episodes of the show are hard to come across outside of Website/YouTube uploads. Not even Website/TheOtherWiki lists them all. As for the merchandise, all of it is long out of print and hard to find. 26 episodes of the show's 142 episodes were put on Creator/ParamountPlus in April 2021.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The preservation of ''Eureeka's Castle'' is pretty headache inducing.
** The
show has had only had three VHS home video releases in its lifetime - two clip compilations and has a release of the show's ChristmasEpisode. All three of these releases remained in-print for quite sometime after the show left Nickelodeon, but never released on DVD.
** The show, prior to 2021, also never had
been released on DVD, nor digitally on [=iTunes=], Creator/{{Hulu}}, Creator/{{Netflix}}, or Creator/PrimeVideo, likely because of the rights issues concerning the animated shorts that would play in each episode. Because of this, full 26 episodes of the show's half-hour configuration were put on Creator/ParamountPlus in April 2021.
** Then comes the complications of the in-house preservation of the show. Sometime shortly after the show's run on Nickelodeon ended in 1996, the master tapes of the hour-long episodes were wiped, which led to the 52 half-hour re-edits of the
show to become the definitive version. These are hard to come across outside what ran on Nickelodeon in 1998-1999, on Noggin and, as mentioned above, what was put on Paramount Plus. The remaining 26 half-hour episodes not on Paramount Plus remain in Nickelodeon's archives, preserved but not airing anywhere. The hour-long episodes remain totally lost with the exception of aged VHS recordings and Website/YouTube uploads. Not even Website/TheOtherWiki lists them all. Only recently has there been a fan effort to properly catalog the show.

* EditedForSyndication: Two configurations of the show exist. The original hour-long configuration that was aired on Nick Jr. up until 1996, and a cut-down half-hour configuration for international broadcast, Cable in the Classroom, and Nickelodeon timeslots with commercials. The half-hour version is the one most commonly seen in later runs and on Creator/ParamountPlus, not least of which because it omits segments such as animated shorts and musical guests that would pose legal issues.

* CreatorsOddball: When you think of [[Creator/RLStine one of the most celebrated authors of young adult horror]], this would probably be the last thing you would expect. (Although he actually ''started'' his career as a humor writer, he already had at least a few horror books under his belt by this point.)
