Trivia & References

"Out With The Old" is the first part of a saying, "Out with the old, and in with the new."
The cursed ballet slippers is a reference to the Hans Christian Anderson story The Red Shoes, in which a vain girl's shoes are cursed to make her dance continuously, until she has her feet cut off. Even then, the shoes continue to haunt her until she prays for mercy.
The Black Swan is a 2010 psychological thriller by Darren Aronofsky about ballet dancers competing for the role of the White Swan and the Black Swan in Swan Lake. Dean also refers to Prince Siegfried, who is the lead male ballet dancer role.
Sam: Geez! You okay there, Baryshnikov?

Dean: Yeah. Yeah, I'm "pas de done."

Mikhail Baryshnikov is a Russian born ballet dancer who defected to Canada in 1974. Dean's phrase "pas de done"is a play on the ballet term pas de deux.
Sam uses the alias Bruce Hornsby - the name of an American improvisational musician - when reporting of the death of the woman killed by the cursed kettle.
The cursed gramophone was sold to Brenda Gluck, 413 River Street, and a vintage gentlemen's magazine sold to Peter Yankit, 27 Johnson Lane. Gluck may be a reference to Christoph Willibald Ritter von Gluck, an 18th century opera composer. Yankit is an entrendre for wanking, and Johnson is a slang for penis.


"Bad Moon Rising" which plays in this episode as Sam and Dean arrive at Frank's trailer, was also played in 1.22 Devil's Trap as the Impala gets hit by the semitrailer. Earlier in this episode, Sam fell asleep at the wheel and nearly had another semi accident.
Hallucifer's torment of Sam by singing Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" fifty times in a row is a likely reference to Ghost, in which the main character, a ghost, sings "Henry the 8th" over and over to convince a medium to do what he wants her to do.
Frank mentions that a new Biggerson's Restaurant has opened in Butte, Montanta. Frank assumes it is Leviathans who have opened it. The woman who dies after drinking boiling water from the cursed kettle, also has some coupons of Biggerson's on her counter.

Minutiae

Sam orders a "triple red eye" coffee from the barista.
Dean does his research at the Lampliter Gallery Cafe.
Joyce's coffee order was for a "Grande non-fat no-whip white mocha, one pump sugar-free, double-shot espresso". Obviosuly only a monster would order coffee like this.
