Continuity mistake: When the goblins are roaming around and sneaking about in Sarah's father's bedroom, in one shot when we see a small, black, furry goblin jump out of the chest which sits at the end of the double-bed, the rocking horse, which sits next to the green chair, by the double doors, has actually disappeared. It's clearly back, once the owl has burst through the doors. (00:11:10)
12th Sep 2005
Continuity mistake: When Sarah walks into the darkened bedroom, in the shots facing the double back doors the hanging light fixture over the crib, the mobile, and picture beside it are all visible. When Jareth appears, in the first shot facing him, the mobile hangs lower (note the archway), the picture is closer to the floral trim around the archway; and solely for Jareth's dramatic entrance, the light fixture is gone - though it should easily be visible in this shot, and the crib is now at an angle. (00:10:25 - 00:11:55)

30th Aug 2005
Continuity mistake: When Sarah arrives home, her hair is tied back in a barrette, with no loose hair hanging from it. As soon as she walks inside, there is suddenly a lot of loose hair which has fallen out of the barrette between shots. (00:04:55)

10th Sep 2004
Visible crew/equipment: After just entering the labyrinth Sarah and Hoggle are talking. Hoggle says to Sarah "You know your problem? You take too many things for granted." As he says this, behind him you can see the blank, grey stage floor where they forgot to put the rusty gold colored set floor down, which matches the rest of the labyrinth floor. It isn't visible in any of the following or previous shots. (00:17:00)

Continuity mistake: When Carl is washing plates, he has a pile of clean ones stacked on the counter. He places a third one down onto the pile but when we see the pile there's only two, then suddenly three, without him placing another one down. However when the plate he cleans falls and smashes, there's just two in the pile again. (01:00:00 - 01:40:00)
20th Feb 2005
Continuity mistake: When Carl has a victim laying in a bath of blood, in one closeup the woman's corpse has a long bloody scratch on her left arm. This isn't there in any other shots, just this closeup. The blood stains around the edge of the bath differ between shots too. (01:04:30)

Continuity mistake: When they show the killer in his bathtub (prior to the police catching him), the first shot is a side view of him in the bath tub and the bath mat is not lying flat. The shot changes to a different view, then back to the side view and the bath mat is now lying flat. (00:27:20)

20th Feb 2005
Continuity mistake: When Catherine turns to see Carl with a victim in a bath of blood, watch the two vases on the windowsill. They change from being side by side, to at least a foot apart. (01:02:30 - 01:03:00)
