On December 10, 2019, Wolfhard launched a fundraising campaign to produce the short film through Indiegogo, offering various incentives to those who donated[3] and attained its goal of $26,000 Canadian dollars in a day.[4]

The short was shot over the span of one day in a Vancouver convenient store.
