Corrected entry: Arthur says oculus inferno means eye of hell, except the Latin word for hell is actually infernum.
Continuity mistake: One of the ghosts (Juggernaut) appears before it has been released. Juggernaut is the last ghost being released, yet we can briefly see him disappear when Rafkin is looking for Bobby.
Suggested correction: When Rafkin is looking for Bobby he almost sees Cyrus turning a corner.
Corrected entry: Any time somebody touches Rafkin, he goes into convulsions and can see into other peoples lives. At one point in the movie, Maggie touches Rafkin but he doesn't go into a convulsion at all. He just acts normally.
Correction: This only happens when the person who touches him has had something terrible happen to him in the past. Maggie obviously hasn't.
Corrected entry: When Shannon Elizabeth is washing up in the bathroom, the angry princess ghost appears in the blood-filled bathtub and her suicide note is on the floor; not only are the ghosts supposed to be confined to the basement by the containment spells but the house was created by Cyrus to house the machine (no one else had lived there), so she wouldn't have killed herself in that bathroom anyway.
Correction: Her writing a suicide note on the bathroom floor doesn't necessarily mean she died in that house, she is just mimicking her own death.
When I first saw that as a kid I assumed Cyrus took the bathroom she died in and made it Kathy's.
Correction: Plus the containment cells were beginning to open allowing the ghosts to wander around the house.
Revealing mistake: When the Lawyer plays the videoclip on the laptop, the stop button is pressed down all the time, instead of the play button. (00:14:40)
Suggested correction: Cyrus was an occultist, it is presumed that this video was haunted. That can also explain why he answers what they key is for in the video after someone asks what it's for.
This theory does not hold up because Cyrus is alive. He's just been wearing a prosthetic neck piece with a popped blood pack in it to appear as a ghost the whole time, in case he's seen walking the house during the plan.
Corrected entry: If the young boy ghost was killed by an arrow while playing cowboys and indians as the "Ghost files" on the DVD says, then why is he in an Indian costume? Shouldn't he be in a cowboy outfit?
Correction: Billy is not "in an Indian costume" strictly speaking, he's actually wearing bits of both cowboy and Indian costumes while he was playing that day he was killed. He liked to dress up as both a cowboy as well as an Indian (during the "Ghost Files" montage, there's an illustration of Billy with his mother seated at the table, and he's wearing a headress with a bow and arrows lying on the floor near him). The day Billy was killed he was wearing a cowboy shirt, a bolo tie at his collar, with a toy gun holster and his cap gun around his waist, and Billy was also wearing a single feather Indian headress on his head, holding a tomahawk in his hand. As for the original correction regarding how Billy was killed, we are shown in the "Ghost Files" montage that the neighbor boy, who had his father's real bow and steel-tipped arrow, shot Billy through the back of his head.
Correction: This is a question not a mistake. And the correction doesn't even relate to the entry at all.
Correction: The boy was shooting into the sky, and what goes up, will go down. Or he was killed by "friendly fire".
Correction: They call it the "Ocularis Infernum."
