The movie had a campaign where you could buy a copy of the hand-created "The Babadook Pop-Up Book" for 80 dollars. The first 2,000 copies are numbered and signed by the director, Jennifer Kent. The book contains pop-up pictures, as well as additional pages not seen in the movie. The campaign was only open for a limited amount in which roughly 9,500 books were sold.
When asked where the idea for The Babadook (2014) came from, director Jennifer Kent said, "I have a friend who's a single mother, whose son was traumatized by this monster figure that he thought he saw everywhere in the house. So I thought, 'What if this thing was real, on some level?' So I made Monster (2005) [a short film] about that idea. But I couldn't leave it alone. I kept coming back to it. And that led to The Babadook." She has also stated that Amelia suffers from the unprocessed trauma of witnessing a horrible death, and that it is up to the audience to interpret whether the Babadook is supernatural or psychological in nature.
Director Jennifer Kent holds the rights to the film. When asked if there would be a sequel, she said, "I will never allow any sequel to be made, because it's not that kind of film. I don't care how much I'm offered, it's just not going to happen."
In Hebrew, ba-badook means "he is coming for sure."
William Friedkin, director of The Exorcist (1973), said of this film, "I've never seen a more terrifying film than The Babadook."
"Amelia: You are nothing. You're nothing! This is my house! You are trespassing in my house! If you touch my son again, I'll fucking kill you!"
"Samuel: [from trailer] You can't get rid of the Babadook"
