Notes
- Tales of Ghost Castle is published on a bi-monthly shipping schedule.
- The introductory story, Tales of Ghost Castle, acts as a framing piece for the stories that follow after it.
- This is the first appearance of Lucien, librarian and storyteller. Lucien will later become a supporting cast member in Sandman (Volume 2). He appears next in Tales of Ghost Castle #2 following the third story in this issue.
- This is the first appearance of the haunted mansion known as Ghost Castle. It will later be revealed in Sandman (Volume 2) that Ghost Castle is actually the palace of Dream of the Endless.
- "Quico Redondo" is a pen name for Frank Redondo.
Trivia
- Originally, the character of Lucien did not exist within the same continuity as the mainstream DC Universe. Like many horror hosts, his sole function was to act as a boogeyman storyteller, similar to the roles of characters such as Cain and Abel. In 1989, writer Neil Gaiman gathered together the various anthology host characters and integrated them into the DC/Vertigo continuity beginning with Sandman (Volume 2) #1.
- This issue contains a one-page humor strip by Sergio Aragonés entitled Ghost Cackles.
