- The protagonist Norman has a total of 8,800 faces with different expressions and matching eyebrows and mouths. This means that the different combinations of these faces, eyebrows, and mouth can produce 1.5 million independent and different expressions for Norman.
- In Norman's iconic hair, there are a total of 275 steel nails. The materials used to make Norman hair include wool, hot glue, super glue, animal fur and hair gel.
- Norman encountered the whispering ghost scene in the bathroom, and it took the crew a year to complete the filming.
- The T-shirt that Norman wore was tailor-made for Norman, and it took 102 stitches to sew it out. Among them, 48 stitches were sewn on the neckline.
- Chris Butler really wanted to make a movie of his own style, so he created the script of "The Psychic Boy Norman". This script is very short, only 30 pages, with a lot of stylized shots and scenes. When making "Mother Ghost", Chris Butler took out the script, and everyone in the company liked it very much, so he decided to collaborate with Sam Phil to produce the film.
