Trivia/Info
- From the Summer 1999 Info Club newsletter: "The true life story of 'the tallest, greatest and most famous haunted mansion in New Jersey.' Written by John Linnell and Brian Dewan, and sung with profound gusto by WFMU DJ Nick Hill."
- This is the oldest song written by TMBG to be featured on No!; the recording heard on the album was created eleven years earlier in 1991, and revised in 1999 for Long Tall Weekend. The song was originally created and released for a WFMU tribute album to Thomas Edison.
- More on the Edison Museum at Wikipedia.
- This song has never been performed live by TMBG, although it appeared on the setlist on October 23, 1999 at The Bowery Ballroom, New York, NY which was intended to be a complete Long Tall Weekend album show.
