Principal photography began on July 9, 2014, in Los Angeles under the title "Into The Further," on a scheduled 29-day shoot. Filming wrapped on August 18, 2014.
The film was released on June 5, 2015, received mixed reviews from critics and grossed $113 million against a budget of $11 million. A sequel, Insidious: The Last Key, was released in January 2018.
