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.

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.
Sweet Ghost Girl: Be clever miss. Even if you win she'll never let you go!
Trivia: The song that Coraline's father is singing whilst making dinner, is the same song that he sings to Coraline as a lullaby in the book.

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.
