Continuity
- Angel Dynamite is revealed to be Cassidy Williams, a member of the previous Mystery Incorporated, which Velma realised in the previous episode.
- The teenage couple in the teaser are the two who were the first victims of the Man-Crab from the teaser of Revenge of the Man Crab.
- Mayor Jones bought the "haunted" temple off of the internet by trading it for leftover Que Horifico tee-shirts from The Song of Mystery.
- Creepy Spooky Terror Land has left over plush dolls of Char Gar Gothakon based on its appearance in The Shrieking Madness.
Notes/trivia

Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches
- None known.
Inconsistencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities
- Dylan and Brenda were apparently broke bones in Revenge of the Man Crab, yet in Where Walks Aphrodite, they're completely fine. It's possible they were added by mistake.

Quotes
Hot Dog Water: (reading the fortune from the fortune telling machine) Meddling kids and their dog will foil your plan. |
Mr. E: Fred told Velma, and us, enough. You see, Scooby is a much more trusting companion then Pericles was to me. |
