The Goblin had 97 scenes and was filmed in only four days.
It took Writer/Director Wyatt Michael 5 months to build the goblin animatronic mechanical puppet which was used in the film.
The movie was shot in a Victorian house museum in the southern U.S. in August. There was no air conditioning in the house and temperatures were always over 100 degrees Fahrenheit (38 degrees Celsius), even at night, during the entire film shoot. The cast and crew were always soaked with sweat, miserable, and drank cases of bottled waters.
Since the film was on such a tight budget, the cast and crew had to work 19 hours a day for 4 days straight to finish the movie on time.
The cellar used in the film was actually part of the house that was in the film. Since it was in the South and uninhabited, it was filled with giant spiders. During the filming of many sequences, enormous spiders would propel down from the ceilings and crawl across the floors. Robert Levey II, the film's lead actor, has terrible arachnophobia and each time a tarantula dangled down towards him, the director would grab it by the web and run out so that he would not know about it. Robert did not see one spider during filming, but the crew saw dozens.
