Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Christopher Landon wrote this specifically for Newton and Vaughn after working with her on 'Paranormal Activity 4' and wanting to see Vaughn do physical comedy again.
The 'La Dola' dagger lore deliberately mirrors 'Child's Play' and 'The Conjuring' — Landon wanted his own cursed object franchise starter.
