Actor Robert Denton was originally cast in the role of Grayson Abernathy as the filmmakers did not believe he could fill the role of Chevy due to the characters emotional range.

The first version of Hallows Eve was set in a haunted community theater. The filmmakers were called to a meeting the day principle photography began where they were presented with a new contact that would surrender their rights to the film upon completion. Refusing the demands of the new contract caused them to lose the location mere hours before they were to begin shooting.
