Trivia
- While designed to stand on its own, "Dario Jung and the GPS from Hell" also has strong connections
to several other stories set in the Nightfire Universe. Additionally, the short story serves to set up a potential series
of novels, in which Dario Jung is a supporting character, that would chronicle the paranormal investigations of the Anderson
Bros. first mentioned in the novelette "Scarecrow."
- The story takes place in the town of Nightfire, Texas, which was introduced in the novel
Cry, Wolf: Shadow of the Werewolf. Hilltop, mentioned in this story, was also introduced as a key location in the
novel.
- The story features
the characters Luke Anderson, who was introduced in the short story "Night Light," and Jasper Anderson, who is the reincarnation
of Jasper Sorry from the novelette "Night Light II: The Trial of Ooga Booga". The paranormal investigations they do for YouTube
videos were first mentioned in the novelette "Scarecrow."
- The ghostly California hotel that the Anderson brothers are editing investigation footage from at the
beginning of this story is the same hotel featured in the short story "The Christmas Spirit."
- The Alexas Mansion, mentioned as the site of another
of the brothers' investigations, was introduced as the home of the vampire Valen Alexas in the novella The Chronicles
of Nightfire, Texas, Volume I: The Vampire Murders, as was Dan Parker's Bar and Grill, where Dario stopped for a veggie
burger and some fries.
