The story on which the film is based, "The Bridge to Body Island," has a much more complex mythology for the Bye Bye Man: He was an albino born in New Orleans in 1912 who ran away as a child and became a derelict who lived in a train yard. After going blind he began murdering people and cutting out their eyes and tongues, which he sewed together and brought to life using voodoo. The resultant creature became the Bye Bye Man's literal seeing-eye dog, helping him hunt his prey. Several elements from the story- notably the dog and the motif of trains-- were retained for the movie, though their purpose is left undefined.
Previously rated R by the MPAA for "bloody horror violence, language and some sexuality."
Filmed in November and December 2015, but not released until January 2017.

"Elliot: No, Kim! There's a train, a real train! Train Driver: No!"
"Kim: Don't think it, don't say it. Don't say it, don't think it. Don't say it, don't think it! Don't say it, don't think it! Don't say it, don't think it! John: Don't say or think what? Elliot: The Bye Bye Man. [lights go out accompanied by loud jump scare noise]"
