Dr. Seuss (1904-1991), the author of the tale on which the cartoon is based, opposed Boris Karloff's (1887-1969) involvement in the project, believing that his Grinch would be too frightening.
Boris Karloff speaks in his own voice as the Narrator, but changes his voice for the role of the Grinch. After his voice as the Grinch had been recorded, all the high tones were additionally removed from it.
The lyrics of the Fahoo Foraze song consist of a set of nonsensical sound combinations deliberately made to resemble Latin. After the cartoon's release, the studio began receiving letters from viewers asking for a translation of the lyrics from Latin.
