• The album was re-released twice: 1998 with 3 demo tracks as bonus tracks and again on September 9, 2003 in a two-disc compilation set along with Alice in Hell, entitled Alice in Hell/Never Neverland (as part of Roadrunner Records "Two From the Vault" series).
• The album is also considered to be a sequel of the Alice in Hell album.
• The album is not named after the quote of the famous Metallica song "Enter Sandman" because it was released a year before. Nor is it named after the fictional island where Peter Pan and Captain Hook dwell and frequently battle.
• Two demo tracks underwent changes; "Mayhem" was changed to "Reduced to Ash" and "Freed from the Pit" was changed to "Road to Ruin".
