Continuity mistake: After Specs kills Ted, we see Elise being interviewed by police outside as Mara is taken away to the hospital. Depending on the camera angle, sometimes Elise has police lights reflecting on her face, and sometimes not. It changes instantly between cuts several times. There are a few other minor continuity gaffs with the police lights throughout the scene as well.

Continuity mistake: When Elise is communicating through the wall by asking yes-or-no questions and getting responses via whistle, in the shots facing Elise, she's staring forward directly forward. But in the shots facing the wall, her head is turned sideways and pressed up against the wall. This happens instantly between cuts at least once.

Continuity mistake: When Elise and Tucker go down into the basement and hear the whistle, Elise approaches the wall. As she does, her right arm is bent up by her abdomen. When the camera cuts, you can see from her shadow that her right arm is instantly now down by her side.

Continuity mistake: During the second night of the investigation, after Tucker and Elise hear the whistle, Tucker opens the door. The shadow his hand and microphone are casting on the door changes positions between edits when it cuts to the POV of him grabbing the doorknob. (First it's on the door, then off).

Continuity mistake: During the second night of the investigation, after Elise and Tucker hear the whistle, Tucker starts to walk forward with his microphone. It cuts to an aerial shot of Elise standing, and you can see Tucker's feet, and he's suddenly standing still before taking a step back, despite the fact he was walking forward in the previous shot. He's also moved forward about 4 feet between cuts.

Continuity mistake: When Elise and the group are setting up for the second night of investigating Ted's house, Elise says Christian reminded him of the red door. The way she's holding the paper in her hands changes instantly between shots. She goes from holding it at an angle to holding it vertically, and her hands slightly change positions on it.

Continuity mistake: After Elise meets her brother at the diner, she breaks down crying and says she was "stupid to come back here." Specs responds by saying "No you weren't, you're helping people..."

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Elise flees her house when she's 16, Christian follows behind her, calling for her. Suddenly, as Christian reaches the bottom of the stairway outside, their father Gerald appears right behind him. This is impossible... Gerald was nowhere to be seen in the previous few shots of the stairway, and furthermore, it was shown that he was walking with a cane and moved slowly as a result, so he wouldn't have been able to catch up to them that quickly. He just sort of... magically appears.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: During Elise's flashback to when she was a teenager, she grabs her father, pushes him against the wall and makes him have a vision. However, his position on the wall changes instantly multiple times between cuts. Ex. First he's to the left of the painting on the wall... then the right. Then when he falls, he instantly lowers about a foot between cuts. Etc.

Continuity mistake: When Elise is investigating her old bedroom, she runs her hand down a coat that's handing on a rack. In the first shot, she's running her hand down the sleeve. When the shot cuts to her POV, her hand is now suddenly running down the coat's chest and is higher up than it was in the previous shot.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Elise is investigating her old bedroom, a shadow walks up behind her, and she turns around and shines her flashlight on it, and the shadow turns into a coat on a hanger. In the first shot, she's standing sideways looking at the coat. In the next shot, she's instantly turned 90° and is fulling facing the coat.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Specs makes the bad joke about the "Winneba-ghost," Tucker goes from looking forward at Elise to looking sideways at Specs instantly between cuts. Then, in the very next shot, Specs goes from looking at Ted to looking at Tucker and Elise instantly between cuts.
