Line 29:
** Or maybe the only reason {{spoiler|Kipps' child didn't join the Woman's ghost army}} is because {{spoiler|his father died with him, trying to protect him.}}
** [[Epileptic Trees|Or the presence of]] {{spoiler|Kipp's wife}}, who was already foreshadowed as a [[Guardian Angel]], made it impossible for the Woman to claim them.
* [[Evil
* [[The Farmer and The Viper]]: Kipp spends the last act of the movie {{spoiler|trying to reunite Jennet and her son, hoping it will put her at peace.}} Nope. Though it ''might'' have earned him the result in [[Even Evil Has Standards]].
* [[The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You]]: {{spoiler|The final shot of the film seems to imply this. If you have kids, it's particularly unsettling.}}
Line 38:
* [[Haunted House Historian]]: ''Everyone'' in town, but of course none of them are talky.
* {{spoiler|[[The Hero Dies]]}}
* [[Hey
** [[Harry Potter|Harry and Aberforth]] are trying to stop the ghost of [[Life On Mars|WPC Annie Cartwright]].
** [[The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes|Dr Watson]] turns up as PC Collins.
Line 56:
* [[Madness Mantra]]: {{spoiler|"never forgive...''never forgive''...'''never forgive!'''"}}
* [[Monkey Morality Pose]]: At least one set of the monkey toys was in the See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil pose.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: To see the woman in black is to cause her to kill one of the local children. Two surefire ways to make her appear are to go to the house in the marsh and to rifle through her things. So, of course, when our hero comes to visit...
* [[Nightmare Face]]: The titular Woman In Black. [[Nothing Is Scarier|For most of the film she is typically seen either from a distance, or out of the camera's focus.]] But at the climax we get a good look at her... have fun sleeping tonight.
* [[Nothing Is Scarier]]: Used a lot, and to great effect.
