Oliver Stone (1987 photograph) was brought on to the project as a "name screenwriter".
The idea of painting symbols onto Conan's body to help ward off spirits is taken from the Japanese story "Hoichi the Earless", as depicted in the film Kwaidan (1965).
The rock formations of Ciudad Encantada (Cuenca, Spain) provided the setting for a supernatural encounter in Conan.
