* {{Blooper}}: Despite having very distinct designs and sounding completely different, the three ghosts are often mistakenly animated with each other's voices. This is especially egregious with their song, where the red ghost is animated with the blue ghost's voice and vice versa for the ''entire duration'' of it.

* SpotlightStealingSquad: Like a number of Golden Films' movies, this one focuses more on the ghosts than Beauty or the Beast. Sure, the ghosts provide a backstory on the Beast and they know quite a bit of him more than the audience, but that isn't used to build up his character at all.
