Production

Following the commercial success of the 2019 horror film Detention, director John Hsu decided to take a lighter and comedic approach for his new project. Noticing the growing popularity of ghost-themed films in Taiwan, he collaborated with screenwriter Vincent Tsai to develop a never-before-filmed idea in 2020 which later evolved into Dead Talents Society.

Principal photography was initially scheduled to begin in 2021, but was delayed until December 2022 due to rewrites and the COVID-19 pandemic. Several members of the filming crew who had previously collaborated with John Hsu on Detention joined the project, including Patrick Chou as cinematographer, Lore Shih as costume designer, and Wang Chih-cheng as art director.

Due to an extensive number of VFX shots, the film underwent an additional year of post-production after filming. An official trailer was released on 1 April 2024, with Eleven Yao, Huang Di-yang, Lung Lung, Da-her Lin, and Daniel Chan revealed to be part of the cast.
