Casting and production was first announced by Deadline Hollywood. Ghost Team is produced by Julie Christeas and Schuyler Weiss of Tandem Pictures, Alex Sagalchik of Mott Street Pictures, Clem McIntosh and director Oliver Irving, with Kevin Iwashina of Preferred Content serving as Executive Producer.

Under Irving’s direction the movie, which was filmed in New York, completed principal photography in 17 days. Driven to avoid the typical backlit night scenes often seen in horror films, the filmmakers only used practical sources such as flashlights, gas lanterns and glow sticks to light the nighttime scenes.
