在这部炼金术士的幻觉奇幻/恐怖/短片片中,这才是梅里爱现存第一部彩蜡stencil染色片（作品编号95），而不是Le Château hanté（作品编号96），后者豆瓣评论区都说是第一部染色，这个错误也正常，因为作品95是后来才被发现并被修复后收入新碟Melies Encore，以前被认为是lost film，而在新碟出现或还未广泛推广、被做成rip在各大视频站起到普及作用前，原先的5碟版本中作品96确实是第一部染色。
Numbered 95 in the catalogues of Georges Méliès' Star Film Company, "L'hallucination de l'alchimiste (1897)" is often misidentified as Alchimiste Parafaragaramus ou La cornue infernale (1906), and vice versa, where another alchemist dabbles in the occult with unforeseen consequences. Sadly, this film is currently presumed lost; however, according to Wikipedia, the plot pivots around an anthropomorphous star with five female heads and a giant face that has people coming out of its mouth.
