- Nightmare Fuel: The Peddler sequence is especially nightmarish in this adaptation, with the scene mainly in darkness save for the faces of the four characters. The peak is the Laundress’ face: after a laugh, her expressions change to a mask of greed, as she glares over the peddler’s payment.
- Retroactive Recognition:
- Maurice Evans as a husband rejected by Scrooge for a loan.
- Robert Morley as a businessman at the Exchange.
- Special Effect Failure: The ghost effect for Marley is infamously handled by showing nothing at all in the room as Marley's disembodied voice intones, "Look well upon me, Ebenezer Scrooge, for only you can see me!"
