Filmed in the historic part of Wethersfield, CT, a suburb of Hartford.
Mary Beth McDonough not only wrote the book "The House on Honeysuckle Lane" on which this movie is based, and played Caroline Reynolds, the mother, but she was Erin Walton in the TV series Os Waltons (1972). Kami Cotler, who played the youngest sister Elizabeth on The Waltons, appears as a townsperson in this movie. You can see her sitting on the couch during the initial party scenes.
