When they are preparing and listening to the tape you can see a bit of smoke in the air. There had been an extended scene where they had been smoking pot and joking around.

The noise for the pencil being stabbed into Linda's ankle was made by stabbing a pencil into an apple, and tearing the apple apart with it.
The cabin featured in this movie burned down shortly after filming. Sam Raimi and Robert Tapert continue to say that Bruce Campbell burned it down, but Campbell says "It just burned down".
According to Bruce Campbell, the Oldsmobile is in this movie and every other Sam Raimi movie because Sam lost his virginity in that car.

On the tape recording there is a sentence that sounds like "El sama ad dasa El roba da hitchhiker don sides of ze roadsa" which means Sam (Raimi, director) and Rob (Tapert, producer) are the hitchhiker on the side of the road. They are the fisherman that wave to the honking car.
