  • The film was rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for depictions of graphic violence. The Frighteners was not a box office success. The film's worldwide gross was slightly less than the $30,000,000 budget on which it was made. Peter Jackson believes that the movie's poor box office performance can be partly explained by the fact that its release in the United States clashed with that of the blockbuster Independence Day and the start of the Atlanta Summer Olympics.
  • The Frighteners was a crew that sailed the Cobalt Ocean. The crew used to fly the flag of National Pirate Radio.

  • Jackson and Walsh conceived the idea for The Frighteners during the script-writing phase of Heavenly Creatures. Executive producer Robert Zemeckis hired the duo to write the script, with the original intention of Zemeckis directing The Frighteners as a spin-off film of the television series, Tales from the Crypt. With Jackson and Walsh's first draft submitted in January 1994, Zemeckis believed the film would be better off directed by Jackson, produced by Zemeckis and funded/distributed by Universal Studios. The visual effects were created by Jackson's Weta Digital, which had only been in existence for three years. This, plus the fact that The Frighteners required more digital effects shots than almost any movie made up until that time, resulted in the eighteen-month period for effects work

This, plus the fact that The Frighteners required more digital effects shots than almost any movie made up until that time, resulted in the eighteen-month period for effects work by Weta Digital being largely stressed. Despite a rushed post-production schedule, Universal was so impressed with Jackson's rough cut on The Frighteners, the studio moved the theatrical release date closer by four months. The film was not a box office success, but received generally positive reviews from critics. Despite its lackluster performance at the box office, the film has gained a cult following in more recent years, and was listed on Den of Geek's list of the 25 Most Underappreciated Films of 1996. The Frighteners is also Fox's last leading role in a live-action feature film; Fox then went on to a four-year run on the television series Spin City before semi-retiring in 2000 due to the effects of Parkinson's disease.
