Changed line(s) 6 (click to see context) from:
* ThrowItIn: Maxine Stuart provided the voicework for Janet Tyler, with Donna Douglas doing the bodywork. Originally, Stuart was going to dub the one line that Janet has after being unmasked, but Douglas carefully listened to her as she recorded the voice track and practiced until she could mimic her perfectly, which impressed the director enough to scrap the dubbing and let Douglas do the line herself.

Added DiffLines:
* EnforcedMethodActing: A variation for director Douglas Heyes. Since so much of the episode was done with voicework, he wanted to make sure that actors he chose had soothing, kind voices -- so he deliberately turned away from them during the auditions to ensure that that only those with the right vocal registers were cast.
* RecycledScript:
** TheRemake produced for ''Series/TheTwilightZone2002'' used exactly the same script as the original episode.
** Also recycled in a ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'' skit, with Creator/PamelaAnderson as the woman. However, when she is unwrapped, she (and everyone else except one nurse) thinks she looks ''HOT'', with one doctor lamenting how he has to go home to his pig-faced wife.
* ScienceMarchesOn: We get a glimpse of some of the nurses and doctors smoking cigarettes in the hospital hallways. At the time, the dangers of secondhand smoke weren't nearly as well-known as they are today.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Creator/RodSerling's original script had the doctors as emotionless tools of the state with contempt for "ugliness." Douglas Heyes convinced him to change it so that they had genuine empathy for someone they see as an innocent victim of a genetic deformity.
* WorkingTitle: "The Private World of Darkness", which explains why Serling's opening narration [[TitleDrop uses those words directly]]. A few of the prints CBS used kept this title for the closing credits.
