Continuity mistake: After being chased in her house, Judy closes the door to the bedroom and proceeds to put her hands on her ears, underneath her hair. The very next shot, she still has her hands on her ears, but it is over her hair.

Continuity mistake: When Lorraine sees Rory in the music box mirror, the items on the wall should be reversed, since it's a mirror, but they are not. When she turns around to look, everything is in the exact same position.

Continuity mistake: When Rory sees the porch door open by itself it is wide open. When he approaches the door, it is only ajar. (00:21:15)

Other mistake: The clocks as we learn later in the film stop at 03:07 due to that being the time the witch died. However, the grandfather clock we see for the first time has stopped at 03:07. We then see it stop at 03:07 the next night too. However the minute hand is in a different spot to when it first stopped - it should have stopped at precisely the same point. (00:13:05 - 00:18:50)
