Continuity mistake: During the make up scene, Peg puts her glasses on top of her head. They remain this way until she reaches for the lotion with the lavender in it, upon which her glasses are suddenly back in their normal spot on her face. It counts as a mistake because, while the shot does cut away for a moment, both her hands remain in full view at all times, so there's never a chance for her to reach up and lower her glasses.

Plot hole: At the end of the film, we see Edward carving ice sculptures in his mansion. How did he get the ice up there? First of all, it takes place in a warm climate and I didn't see a freezer up there in the castle. He couldn't have gotten ice from town because firstly he had scissors for hands and couldn't have gripped the ice. And, even if by some miracle he could, he wouldn't be able to buy any from town because everyone in town but Kim was convinced that Edward was dead, she told everyone that they killed each other. And Kim didn't bring it to him because she told her granddaughter in the end that she never saw him again after that night. So where did he get that ice?

Trivia: When Peg Boggs enters the mansion for the first time, there is a spikey shadow on the wall at the top of the stairs. Listen carefully and you can hear scissors snipping and the shadow will move - it is Edward looking down to see the stranger in his house.

Question: When Edward kills Kim's (ex) boyfriend, we see Kim run to the window after him, there is blood on her arm. Where did it come from?

Answer: The blood came from another wound on Jim's body. Edward did cut him on his arm and he does fall back onto Kim so she could have gotten some blood onto her dress that way.

Answer: Probably from her brother's cuts.
