Coraline is an animated fantasy movie about the aforementioned little girl who lives in a dull life, but then starts to have a magical mystery unfold around her upon meeting her "Other Mother" who may be a vile insect-like creature! Things then get increasingly worse for our hero as people and places disappear, other individuals become horrible and poor Coraline is left confused and afraid. A good stop-motion film by Henry Selick.

Coraline mistake picture

Continuity mistake: During the other father's song, notice the red record player by the door and the position it's in, with the lid facing Coraline when he says, "making up a song". When the camera angle changes and he says, "she's a doll", the record player's position changes completely, with the lid now facing the wall.

More trivia for Coraline

Question: I know Coraline's parents are lured to the other world with the doll... but how exactly? The Beldam couldn't have lured them the same way she did Coraline, her parents are too mature to just go exploring and be fascinated by their new parents.

Answer: The Beldam lures victims by offering them something they want. In Coraline's case it was more attentive parents. It's not said what exactly was used to lure the parents but it must have been something they both wanted.

Answer: I suspect that you need the doll to be granted access to the world, at least at first. The parents would have been worried about Coraline, so my guess is that they went through the door looking for her. Or perhaps the Beldam did offer something else that they wanted.
