Retcons the ending of Shawn Is on the Trail (2012), and, by extension, much of Shawn's Dark Xmas (2012).
The sequel to Shawn Is on the Trail (2012) was originally supposed to be called 'Killer Shawn' and was to feature a prolonged gun battle between Shawn Elestren and Paul Michael McIntosh. But when McIntosh made threats over his appearance in Trail the idea was reformatted and the movie begins with his character already dead. The sequel to 'Killer Shawn' was due to be called 'Dead of the Shawn' - a comedic short in which Shawn has trouble disposing of Paulie's body on a beach only for him to come back to life and be killed again. Both ideas were then combined.
The blood splatters on Shawn's jacket are real. In April 2012 he was involved in a violent street fight and his clothes were confiscated in evidence. He had to wait until February 2013 to get his jacket back from the police and decided to use it in the movie, passing off the real blood as the blood of his dead victim.
The first appearance of Miss Scarlett since Shawn's Final Countdown (2011). Her full name is now given as Countess Scarlett Minerva Ravensdale. First time around she was played by Paulina Kozdój, a Polish student, this time she is played by filmmaker Tina Doyle.
