Robert Cargill was invited to write the script, although the name of Scott Derrickson still remained among the other authors of the picture. Despite the fact that "Sinister 2" has the same basic elements as the first part of the franchise, it differs from it in many ways. In the new film, the characters of Bagul, the deputy sheriff and the possessed children have more individuality and character. We learn the details of the past and the mythology of the mysterious figure of the evil spirit from the first film. Also, the role of children in "Sinister 2" will be more important this time. Director Kieran Foy drew inspiration from Stephen King's Children of the Corn. The role of the terrible Bagul is performed by actor-stuntman Nicholas King. In order to transform into a supernatural entity, he had to apply makeup for two or more hours. Several masks were also created for different filming plans. Filming of Kieran Foya's film started on August 19, 2014 in Chicago. Most of the scenes were shot in Chicago Studio City. The budget of "Sinister 2" is $ 5 million, which is 2 million more than the first part, which was very profitable and collected about 87 million at the worldwide box office.
