The filming of the movie originally did not take place in the house. The story is based on the experiences of the Perron family that lived in the house in 1970s.

Apparently, a child died in her care by the injury of a needle. Mrs. Perron told Ed and Lorraine that one day when she was sitting on the sofa and she felt a spasm in her leg muscles. When she looked down, she saw a concentric wound and it was bleeding.
