What's left behind the scenes

The fictional house with the clock is based on a real mansion located in Marshall, Michigan, the hometown of John Bellairs (1938-1991), whose novel the film is based on. Marshall served as the prototype for the town of New Zebidee, where many of the writer's books take place.
In the scene where Kate Blanchett's character tells Owen Vaccaro's character about losing both her magic and loved ones, her arm is shown with a tattoo signifying that she was once in a concentration camp.
Some of the drawings in the magic book that Jack Black's character shows Owen Vaccaro's character are elements of a Rorschach inkblot test – a personality test that includes evaluating the subject's reaction to ambiguous inkblots, first published in 1921 by Swiss psychiatrist Hermann Rorschach (1884-1922).
In the pumpkin scene, all the pumpkin pulp had to be digitally recolored a brighter orange, as otherwise it resembled the color of blood too much.
The original novel (1973) by John Bellairs (1938-1991) is set between August 1948 and April 1949, while the film's plot takes place in 1955.
