What's left behind the scenes
- After a week of screenings in Mexico, cinemas were forced to add warnings about the film's violence to its posters, so that parents would not allow their young children to attend showings.
- At the Cannes Film Festival, the film was awarded 22 minutes of applause.
- In 2007, the film became one of the few fantasy films in the entire history of the Academy Awards to be nominated for Best Foreign Language Film.
- The film was banned in Malaysia for failing censorship due to scenes containing violence.
- The ruined city shown at the beginning of the film is actually called Belchite. It was also used as a location for Terry Gilliam's 'The Adventures of Baron Munchausen' (1988). Belchite was destroyed during the Spanish Civil War and has not been rebuilt since.
- Guillermo del Toro is known for keeping notebooks where he jots down his ideas in the form of drawings and notes for their subsequent implementation in films. Once, he left a notebook with ideas for "Pan's Labyrinth," which he had been developing for years, on the back seat of a taxi and thought the project was lost. But when the driver found the notebook, he immediately realized how important it was to the director and tracked down Guillermo to return the notes. Del Toro considered this a divine blessing.
- Doug Jones was the only American involved on the set and the only one who didn't speak Spanish at all.
- Doug Jones had to memorize not only his own lines in Spanish (a language he doesn't speak at all), but also Ophelia's lines, so he would know when to say his next words.
- The Faun's legs were not created on a computer. Guillermo del Toro's discovery was that the real legs of the actor, removed digitally, were replaced with puppet legs.
- Ivana Baquero, who played the girl, was too old to play her character, originally created as an 8-year-old girl. But Del Toro was so inspired by her performance that he decided to adapt the script for an 11-year-old actress.
- The ruined city shown at the beginning of the film is actually called Belchite. It was also used as a location for Terry Gilliam's "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" (1988). Belchite was destroyed during the Spanish Civil War and has never been rebuilt since.
- Guillermo del Toro is known to keep notebooks where he sketches and jots down ideas for future films. Once, he left a notebook containing ideas for "Pan's Labyrinth," which he had been developing for years, in the back of a taxi and thought the project was lost. However, when the driver found the notebook, he immediately realized how important it was to the director and tracked down Guillermo to return the notes. Del Toro considered this a divine blessing.
