In 2019, Finn Wolfhard and Billy Bryk met on the set of Ghostbusters: Afterlife and quickly realized they shared a similar sense of humor. Eager to write a film together, they experimented with different ideas until they both settled on a slasher concept. Their first draft, a 70-page script, drew inspiration from their favorite teen comedies and horror films, with a particular nod to Edgar Wright's Shaun of the Dead (2004). The project hit a pause in 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic struck, and it was not until after the lockdowns were lifted that they began searching for financing. Wolfhard, who was 19 in 2022, initially struggled to secure funding, as investors often pointed to his young age and inexperience. Eventually, 30West stepped in to fully finance and executive produce the film.
Hell of a Summer was announced in July 2022 with Wolfhard and Bryk also co-directing and starring in the film, making it Bryk's directorial debut. The film was produced by Jason Bateman and Michael Costigan's Aggregate Films, along with Jay Van Hoy. Fred Hechinger also served as producer and joined the main cast alongside D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, , and . Wolfhard stated that he and Bryk aimed to cast as many undiscovered talents as possible. Sara Kay, Jenny Lewis, and Carmen Cuba assisted with the casting.

Owners of Camp Pineway, John and Kathy, are relaxing by the campgrounds lakeside one night. John is murdered when an acoustic guitar is shoved into his mouth, while Kathy has a knife inserted into her skull. The killer, an individual donning a devil mask, slips away into the night.
Eleven counselors arrive at the campgrounds a day early to ensure opening operations go smoothly. Among them is 24-year-old Jason Hochberg, a frequent returner and admirer of the camp who is repeatedly nitpicked for his age. Jason is given temporary leadership after finding a note that informs him of an "emergency" between John and Kathy. Though initially hopeful, Jason quickly doubts his decision to revisit the job and finds it difficult to connect with the other counselors, which include Claire, his friend who has a crush on him.
The group splits up once night comes. Demi, a popular social media influencer, is violently slaughtered inside of her cabin. While doing routine checkups, Jason finds her body in bed and begs the group (who believes he's playing a prank) to escape the property. Everyone heads to her cabin, only to discover her corpse is no longer present. Noelle, a girl obsessed with spirits and the occult, horrifies the group by stating the blood in the bed is Demi's. Everyone races to their cars only to find that the engines won't start. During the chaos, two more counselors — Miley and Mike — are seemingly killed in the mess hall.
While barricading themselves in a cabin, the remaining group notices that the aforementioned duo are missing. After a randomized card drawing, Ezra, Jason and Ari leave the cabin to search for them. Inside of the mess hall, they discover Miley's severed head inside of the fridge, causing them to flee in terror and get split up. Ari is abducted and stabbed with a knife coated in peanut butter due to his life-threatening peanut allergy. The killer drags his lifeless body away. Ezra returns to the group only to get accidentally maced with bear spray.
Tensions skyrocket after a Ouija board reading (along with adamant reasoning from Ezra) which deduces that Jason is the killer. Bobby, believing that he killed everyone due to their attractiveness, and being jealous that he wasn't killed, ties him up. Claire saves Jason and the two escape into the woods. Claire and Jason find John and Kathy's bodies and Claire wants to flee the property, but Jason decides to rush back to save the counselors instead. Claire leaves the area in hopes of finding help. While the rest of the counselors search for assistance, Noelle is stabbed and subsequently murdered by having her head bashed in with a rock. Two killers appear, each with an identical outfit and mask.
The killers, revealed to be Demi and Mike, began the killing spree as a ploy for media success and internet fame. The unaware Chris barges into their room, and the two join the group, hiding their identities. Jason arrives and is knocked out by Mike. Meanwhile, Ezra is murdered after the killer breaks his leg so he can't run then swings an axe into his head. One of the killers is seen putting a bloody knife into Jason's hand, who is knocked out, to get his fingerprints. Chris narrowly escapes one of the killers and regroups with Shannon, but Bobby is chased by Mike into a cabin. Claire, who decided to stay behind to rescue Jason, smashes a bottle onto Mike's head.
A lengthy scuffle ensues between Bobby and Mike, and amidst the altercation, the cabin is set ablaze. Bobby eventually stabs Mike in the throat, killing him, but is stabbed in the abdomen. Meanwhile, Claire, armed with a bow and arrow, discovers Jason tied to a chair with Demi holding a knife to his throat. Jason repeats an earlier archery lesson, and Claire shoots an arrow into Demi's eye. Claire stomps the arrowhead into her skull before running away with Jason. He saves Bobby from the burning cabin, letting him know he won't die from his stab wound.
The remaining survivors — Chris, Bobby, Shannon, Claire, and Jason — all join. Shannon affirms her love for Chris while Jason and Claire share a kiss.
Principal photography began in July 2022 in Ontario, Canada, and concluded in August aft
