What's left behind the scenes

  • The house featured in the film is located in Los Angeles. It had previously appeared on screen in horror films by Daniel Mann, "Willard" (1971), and Anthony Hickox, "Waxwork" (1988). No filming has taken place at the house for a long time.
  • Tawny Kitaen first played Linda in this film, and then, while the project was in post-production, she starred in a music video for a song by Whitesnake. Both the film and the video were released around the same time. The video brought Kitaen popularity, which to a certain extent contributed to the success of the film.
  • Director Kevin Tenney wrote the screenplay while studying at the University of Southern California.
  • Filming the shower scene proved difficult, as Tawny Kitaen felt uncomfortable naked in front of the camera, and everyone except the director and one other member of the crew had to leave the set.
  • When a friend of director and screenwriter Kevin Tenney had to drop out of university, he got a job at a company whose owner, Walter Jostyn, was interested in the world of cinema. He was told about the screenplay and agreed to finance the shooting. Tenney dropped out of university before graduating and began filming. Jostyn was brought on as executive producer.
  • The idea for the sunglasses belongs to James W. Quinn, the actor who played Lloyd.
  • Kenny Rhodes, who played Mike, kept the bandana his character wore after filming was completed.
  • Stephen Nichols (who played Brandon) complained that the stunt double who stood in for him in close-up shots during the scene with the Ouija board had very small hands, resembling a woman's. Kevin Tenney jokingly replied that next time he would invite a kindergarten girl to be the double.
  • The color of Linda's nail polish, played by Tawny Kitaen, changes from bright red to clear.
