They go against formula here by not really having a supernatural element. Even once we meet the "monster", we know it's the dognapper in a disguise. We do have a "ghost", but with the dognapping plot, it makes it hard to believe it's not some sort of trick to scare people away. First time the criminal makes a comment about the kids minding their own business, but "meddling kids" isn't used. He says, "Blasted kids!" instead.
