Trivia: This series was originally announced as "Agatha: House of Harkness" in 2021. The subtitle was then changed to "Coven of Chaos" in July 2022, before being changed again to "Darkhold Diaries" in September 2023. It was then officially confirmed to be titled "Agatha All Along" in May 2024. The previous titles were all probably announced as jokes to lead up to the actual title, given that "Agatha All Along" was the name of the song used to reveal Agatha being the main antagonist of WandaVision.

Trivia: Velociraptors were much smaller in real life than as depicted in this film series. The ones in the film are closer in size to Utahraptors, which were discovered by paleontologist Jim Kirkland during pre-production of the film. The dinosaur was nearly called Utahraptor spielbergi in honour of the director, but the company employing Kirkland prevented it due to Universal being overly-litigious around the time of the film's release. Instead it was named Utahraptor ostrommaysi.
