Production

In early 2014, Nickson Fong and Eko Nonoyama began developing the screenplay, with Eko's original Japanese screenplay being completed in 2017. Later in 2017, Los Angeles filmmaker Todd Ocvirk created an adapted version of the screenplay in english. On the 2018 production set, producer Steve Krone said, "It's not a gory of violent horror film. I would describe it as more of a sort of supernatural kind of ghost story kind of horror film."

Principal photography began in Buffalo, New York in July 2018, and was initially scheduled to be released in 2019, which it did not. Some of the locations include WNED-TV studio, Statler City, Aurora, Little Rock City and Shinshiro, Japan.
