- The movie has a very children's book feel, but it still delves into rather strange supernatural images and subject matter.
- This movie is frightening and intense to varying degrees throughout. Creepy
- The first half of the movie the scary scenes are humorous and light however they get drastically more creepy and scary in the second half. It is quite a drastic change and can very very frightful for children. At that point even the humor doesn't lighten the fearfulness of the movie.

- Creepy dolls, mannequins with clown head and even a wind up devil are found in one room of the house. Towards the end of the movie, these all come alive, swarm the main characters, and drag/carry the protagonists out of the house. No harm is done.
- Pentagrams and demons are littered throughout the movie, as well as random taxidermied animal parts and human hands. a boy takes an evil book to a cemetery at night and a skeletal hand on top of the book begins to move like a compass towards graves. It taps rapidly as he approaches a grave and he casts a blood spell to bring the dead to life. The coffin lid moves and a hand covered in maggots appears. One character retells his experience in selling his soul to a demon from hell in order to get forbidden knowledge. the demon is frightening and inhuman. the little boy has dreams where he speaks to his dead mother, who encourages him to defy his uncle's rules. Later you find it is actually an evil witch who transforms in front of the boy with a lot of writhing and jerking around.
- The movie deals with witchcraft throughout, and it progresses to darker subjects. The subject of blood magic is stated, brought up, and seen, both performed by a child, and the antagonist. The child also performs necromancy. Towards the end it is revealed that a character summoned a demon using blood magic and satanic ritual. The demon is seen in a flashback and even named. These elements are not introduced or painted lightly, so some viewers will find this to be intense subject matter.
