Based on the novel by British mystery writer David Ambrose, the film centers on a scientifically conducted seance that draws a deadly ghost who shifts reality to account for its existence.

Stevens tells Variety that "Superstition" drew his interest because of the originality of Ambrose's story, in which a university psychologist tests his theory that human minds have the psychic ability to create a ghost. "I think the novel's a great jumping-off point for a movie, especially since I mostly get offered projects that have been done a lot -- usually involving slashers or teenagers trapped in the woods," he told the trade.
