- TriviaWhen Wade Williams acquired the rights to Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957) in 1982, Edward D. Wood Jr.'s widow, Kathy Wood, told him this never-released film was being held by a post-production house because the lab fees hadn't been paid. Williams paid the fees and acquired this film, finally releasing it 23 years after it was filmed.
- GoofsIn the scene that features the two teenagers in the car, the film suddenly speeds up tremendously. The whole scene was shot in 1910s silent film style.
- Quotes
Patrolman Paul Kelton: Monsters! Space people! Mad doctors! They didn't teach me about such things in the police academy! And yet that's all I've been assigned to since I became on active duty! Why do I always get picked for these screwy details all the time? I resign.
Capt. Robbins: Kelton, so help me, if you don't get the hell outta here-...
Patrolman Paul Kelton: You're all against me. The whole police force is against me! The whole CITY is against me! I resign!
- Crazy creditsIn the opening credits Tom Mason is credited as Thomas R. Mason, in the closing credits as Tom Mason.
- Alternate versionsThe original title, "Revenge of the Dead, was filmed and appeared on the original print. The replacement title "Night of the Ghouls" was added when Wade Williams bought and distributed the movie in video in the 1980s, as well as the phrase "Wade Williams presents".

S10's Reviews: Night of the Ghoul (1959)
Ed Wood rounds up the usual suspects for this craptastic shocker. Lt. Moore is hot on the trail of shyster medium Dr. Acula (Uh huh, Dracula
I get it) who sets up his show in the good old Dr. Vornoff's (Bela Lugosi's lair in 'Bride of the Gorilla' (1955)) old lair to bilk little old ladies hard earned social security by channeling their love ones with floating sheets and phantom trumpet players who couldn't hold a tune even if they had pockets.. This guy couldn't talk to the dead with a two cans connected by string.
The Woodmeister really outdoes himself with 'Ghouls'. I was laughing my butt off during the good doctor's séances. Oh great swami salami please raise the dead. 'Night of the Ghouls' is badly acted with horrible dialogue and some of the cheesiest effects in all his films. I had a great time with this one. 4/5
