Production

Bunco Squad was filmed over the course of several weeks in February 1950.

Harry August Jansen, a famous magician for more than 50 years and known professionally as Dante, emerged from retirement to appear in the film and assist as a technical advisor. Jansen donated his own spiritualistic props, valued at more than $50,000, for use in the film. Marguerite Churchill, who plays Barbara Madison, appears in her first screen role since 1938, when she retired to marry actor George O'Brien.

Producer Lewis J. Rachmill consulted with a palmist, psychic adviser, handwriting analyst, phrenologist, astrologer and "character consultant" while preparing for the film. After the consultations, he said: "My picture will tell all, and that's a lot more than these phony seers did."
