Trivia

Director Jordan Graham spent six years building the cabin set by hand and shot most footage solo. His actual grandmother June Peterson plays Nani using her real dementia journals.

Cultural

The film's title refers to a supposed automatic writing spirit that plagued Graham's own family for generations—making this horror uncomfortably autobiographical.
