Notes/trivia[]
- The Phantom is just referred to as "Ghost" in his model sheet.[1]
- It's not explicitly stated, but the Phantom was likely intended to be the ghost of Vasquez.
- A profile on the Phantom is featured in DC Comics' Scooby-Doo story Who's Who in Scooby-Doo. It is referred to as the Telescope Ghost, on account of what it was using at the beginning of the episode.
- A ghost resembling the Phantom (but with an added mouth) appeared in the Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders song "How Groovy", where he was being chased by the gang in their original forms in a homage to the original series until Shaggy leaves to have dinner with Crystal, much to the confusion of everyone else (especially the ghost).
- The Phantom is a recurring enemy in call areas of the video game Scooby-Doo! Night of 100 Frights. There's also a Monster Token to unlock him.
- The info on the Phantom's Monster Token gets the plot wrong, as it says that the gang encounter a mysterious ship, even though they don't encounter any Mysterious ship in "Hassle in the Castle".
- In the ride Scooby-Doo's Haunted Mansion Ride, the Phantom appears as a real ghost scaring riders in the bedroom.
- In the DTV Scooby-Doo! and the Goblin King, the Phantom was among the real monsters seen in the monster bar.
