** Note that unlike when the park activates in the prologue, only the eyes of Umlaut glow instead of them popping off of the tombstone. It could be that feeding the token during the day just delays the arrival of the park until sundown.

* In the Big Top level it's revealed that Tokkentakker's plan for the player is to cut out their brain and stick it in the body of a gorilla with chainguns for hands. Seems kind of random, though perfectly in character for an insane ringleader with a penchant for mutilation, but considering that the player/player character has been doing nothing but running around the park and gunning down anything that moves, this could also be taken as Tokkentakker deliberately equating you to a dumb brute that can't do anything except shoot things.

* As said in the NightmareFuel [[NightmareFuel/CarnEvil page]], the protagonists were part of a tour guide before the player character hops off to investigate the grave. In the Haunted House, the player comes across a kitchen with butchered human corpses everywhere. Since the circus was shown to be sprouting out of the ground in the cemetery, who's to say that wasn't the rest of the tourists?

Uh, no. The cost of the game is adjustable like many other arcade games.
