Trivia
The film's release spawned a fan theory that this film, and Burton's other two stop motion animated films, The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) and Corpse Bride (2005), all are taking place in a shared continuity, and tell one big story spanning several centuries, and the possibility that Victor Frankenstein and Sparky are descendants of Victor Dort and scraps from Corpse Bride (2005).

Goofs
Toward the end of the film, when Sparky has been hooked up to all of the jumper cables, Victor places two cables to Sparky's neck bolts. When the charge seemingly doesn't take, Victor removes one cable, not two. When Sparky reawakens and stands up, the second cable is not attached.

During the classroom scene when Mr. Rzykruski is explaining the mechanics of lightning, his diagram shows positively charged clouds above the ground, which is shown as being negatively charged by electrons. The diagram should contain negatively charged clouds (containing a surplus of negatively charged electrons) over the ground which should not have any charge.

On the chalkboard the word "Life" above the drawing of Sparky disappears in a following scene.
