Production
Director Lester Hsi stated that his creative inspiration came partly from the South Korean film Along with the Gods: The Two Worlds. He pointed out that as an Asian country that also values funeral rites and folk beliefs, Taiwan also has the cultural foundation to develop its own narratives on the themes of life and death. Hsi believes that in addition to creating a suspenseful atmosphere, the work also hopes to convey emotional warmth and guide the audience to view themes such as haunted houses and the dead from different perspectives.[7]
The principal photography of the film began in March 2024.[8]
Release
On 27 June 2025, the first two episodes of Haunted House Secrets premiered at the Taipei Film Festival at Zhongshan Hall. An illustrated poster designed by visual artist Steven Tung was also unveiled on the same day.[9] The two directors, producer Lo Pei-yi, and the main cast attended the premiere.[10] A media tea party was held on 24 January, where the main cast members gave interviews.[11]
The series premiered on Disney+ on 16 January, 2026, with two episodes released every Friday. Within 48 hours of its release, the show ranked number one on Disney+'s trending charts in Taiwan.[12]
