Trivia

The character Nick (Travis Tope) mentions that his mother is a patient at "Trans-Allegheny". Trans-Allegheny is the name of an historic mental hospital located in Weston, West Virginia which ceased operating in 1994.

This is a loose remake of the 1976 film by the same name based on "The Moonlight Murders" incident in Texarkana.

The character "Lone Wolf" Morales is a composite name between the former real life Texas Ranger Captain "Lone Wolf" Gonzaullas and the original movie's fictional version, J.D. Morales.

In addition to playing Charles B. Pierce, Jr. in the film, actor Denis O'Hare also voices the narration heard at the beginning of the film.

John Donnell plays a small role as a character named Sparkplug. This is an homage to a character from the original film.

Popular Dialogues

"Lone Wolf Morales: After our friend kills those kids with the trombone, who does he go after next? Chief Deputy Tillman: In the movie after the trombone killing there's a double homicide at a farm house. Lone Wolf Morales: Every damn house out here is a farm house."

"Narrator: In the spring of 1946, in the small town of Texarkana, on the Texas/Arkansas border, a series of horrific murders were committed by a masked assailant known only as the phantom killer. For three harrowing months, the phantom stalked the back roads of Texarkana following young couples looking for privacy to isolated areas where their screams for help would go unanswered. Though several arrests were made in connection to the brutal slayings which ended as suddenly as they began, the killer's identify was never confirmed. Indeed many people who lived through that nightmare time believe t4h phantom spend the rest of his days free, walking the streets of Texarkana quietly, anonymously, until his assumed death in 1976 a film inspired by the infamous Moonlight Murders was released. Every year on Halloween "The Town that Dreaded Sundown" is screened somewhere in Texarkana, in tribute to the Phantom's legacy of death and blood. Today, Texarkana is a place haunted by its past, defined by a mystery that was never solved, and a tragedy that could never be forgotten. The following happened in Texarkana last year."
