For the script Ernesto Gastaldi was inspired by H.G. Wells' novella The Invisible Man. Gastaldi noted that the starting point for the films development was comic books and director Mino Loy's desire to develop a film with special effects involving partially reflecting mirrors. It was directed by Mino Loy, whose real name was Guglielmo Loy Donà. It was his third last film as a director.
