- Every scene with that damn doll.
- Of particular note are the scenes where time seems to slow down. It's hard not to feel an underlying sense of dread every time it happens.
- Mary Shaw herself, who manages to be creepier than any of the movie's dolls.
- Her goal itself is nightmare fuel: to wipe out the entire bloodlines of the angry mob who killed her. No one is safe from her. Not even women and children. And what started this whole revenge from beyond the grave? One little boy heckled her during her show, so she kidnapped him, killed him and made his body into a puppet. In response, a mob broke into her house, cut out her tongue and she bled to death. And ever since then, the town of Raven's Fair has been cursed.
- The freaking ending. The entire interaction between Jamie and his father becomes infinitely creepier on a second viewing, now that you know that he's a long-dead human puppet, and that his wife is none other than Mary Shaw.
