Corrected entry: When Susie first enters her house after being killed, she leaves muddy footprints on the floor. When the shot changes to a front view from the kitchen, the footprints are gone. This scene doesn't change viewpoints from the Spirit World until after these shots are complete.

Corrected entry: When Susie's sister first enters the killer's basement from the window and goes upstairs, we can see her passing within a couple feet of her sister's concealed body in the safe; the director makes sure that we do. When she flees the house so does the killer with great haste knowing that he has been caught. The problem lies in the next scene when we see the killer dropping off the safe at the sink hole to dispose of the evidence; which takes 2 people and great effort to roll it to the edge. How did he manage to get it out of the basement and loaded into his truck in 10 minutes by himself?
Correction: Having watched these scenes very carefully, due to having read this entry previously, it is clear to me that there is not much indication at all of how much time has passed. Even so, tipping the safe on its side and tying a rope tied around it would make dragging it up the basement stairs and then up a ramp into the vehicle relatively quick work. There's no mistake here.

Correction: Imagery, backgrounds, and entire environments change in the "spirit world" within a single shot countless times throughout the movie. It can't possibly be claimed that ghosly footprints disappearing is a mistake in this case.
