Why was Wes Craven involved with this project?
According to Wes Craven:

I loved Stef Van Heugten's "Plague Night" and I always dreamed to work with him. Of course I had to work too on my new movies "My Soul To Take" And "Scream 4" and I finally got the chance. This is just our dream project.

Is there a sequel?
After the release of the film, Stef Van Heugten said they might gonna make a sequel. The sequel was originally intended to be more of the main story and not just an inside-story. According to Van Heugten:

''In the first movie, there wasn't really like a story and it had more effect like Scream or I Know What You Did Last Summer. In the sequel we're gonna do even more gore, but also more story. I want to tell a story about it.''

He later confirmed that the film is waiting because he is now working on The Warrior Heir, which would be based on the fantasy-book written by Cinda Williams Chima.
