Fun Facts

The script for this episode can be found on The Real Ghostbusters Scripts page.
Title Reference: "The Wearing of the Green" is an Irish street ballad lamenting the repression of supporters of the Irish Rebellion of 1798. It is to an old Irish air, and many versions of the lyric exist, the best-known being by Dion Boucicault. The song proclaims that "they are hanging men and women for the wearing of the green".
The voice actors were recorded on August 27 and 29, 1986. Laura Summer recorded alone on August 29, 1986.
The designs of the Bog Hound were loosely based on the Terror Dog from the movie.
