Storyline
Did you know
- Trivia'Cú' literally means 'dog' or 'hound' in Irish, while more specifically he is an Old English Sheepdog.
- GoofsWhen Granny finds the ghosts in the bin on Halloween, she threatens to call the police. Being Irish and living unmistakably in Dublin, she would not use the term police, but would instead threaten to call "the Guards" (or "Gardaí" in Irish), the usual term for police in Ireland.
- Crazy credits"Behind the scenes" wireframes and animatics from the production are shown beside the credits as they roll.
- Alternate versionsIn the cinema release, the words 'Feic Off' are written on a wooden door. On the UK Blu-ray release they have been removed.

Performed by Lisa Hannigan
Featured review
The Myth Buster
It is generally accepted that only Disney can do animation with strong musical themes. Wrong.
It is generally accepted that only Japan can produce superior animation.Wrong.
It is generally accepted that FINDING NEMO was the best animated story about the sea.Wrong.
The other IMDb reviewer who said this could be the best animated feature ever made may not be wrong. It is one of a kind.
I could go on but hopefully you get the point.
Wonderful. Enchanting. Magical. Perfect.
I couldn't even hit the PAUSE button.
