The backstory behind this entity is that Katie's grandmother Lois made a deal with a coven of witches for wealth and power in exchange for a demon taking the soul of her family's first-born son. While Paranormal Activity's Toby isn't a horror icon like Halloween's Michael Myers or Jason Voorhees, he made for a memorable villain. The series also received a Japanese spinoff with 2010's Paranormal Activity 2: Tokyo Night, though the events of that film have never been mentioned in the rest of the series.

Subsequent sequels expanded the mythology, exploring Katie's backstory, with prequel Paranormal Activity 3 revealing how the demon first made itself known with Katie's young sister Kristi dubbing it "Toby." Like with most horror franchises the sequels were a mixed bag, with the third movie and spinoff Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones considered the best, while the last entry Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension was regarded as a disappointment. The movie became a massive success and soon kicked off a long-running franchise that dethroned the Saw series at the box-office. Paranormal Activity was re-edited for its theatrical release and a new ending was shot, with Steven Spielberg himself suggesting the final jump scare where a possessed Katie lunges at the camera.
