Yeah, Ishida has considerable nods and references to other things in his work. Tokyo Ghoul is especially loaded with literary references, but there's also pop culture and historical stuff tossed in as well. And he really uses a wide variety of things, since there's nods to both Japanese and Western material in the work.
