On Pg. 25, Hannah Marie talks directly to the reader in a mini-feature titled Treats, explaining how to make a spooky version of "s'mores". Mrs. LeGevaudan's first name is revealed in Scary Godmother: Wild About Harry #1 (Feb. 2000). Professor Toad is first referred to by name in Trilogy Tour II #[nn] (June 1998). Aloysius the amphibian is not referred to by name until Scary Godmother #2 (July 2001). Orson, Ruby, and Count Max made their actual first appearance, unnamed, in an "aschcan" preview called Scary Godmother and Friends #[nn] (1997) before the first Scary Godmother book was released.
