* NarniaTime: The flow of time within Christmas Town is so dilated from the outside, Elsgood thinks it's only been a few days when he's been in there since ''1932''.
* ShoutOut: At the end, a grown up Elsgood is seen with three kids that look like [[{{Anime/Naruto}} Konohamaru and his friends]]. One even has a t-shirt depicting a swirled lollipop, emulating the Hidden Leaf Village's insignia, to drive the reference home.
* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: When Ben and Gwen last meet Elsgood, he's initially unrecognizable as an old man with grandchildren of his own. But when his grandchildren ask to further explore the Christmas amusement park, he affectionately uses the 1930s jargon "skedaddle". Ben and Gwen instantly recognize him then, as he confirms his identity with a wink.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Mr. Jingles wants the world to have a perfect Christmas. To this end he kidnaps, transforms, brainwashes and enslaves people to act as elves and Santa, to give the world his idea of a perfect Christmas. He's been working since 1932 doing this, keeping children from their families on Christmas all this time.

* MeaningfulEcho: When Mr. Jingles fusses over how Ben's meddling has ruined his plans to give the world the perfect Christmas, it's Max who advises that Christmas is less about presents and more about the family and generosity. Later, when everything has returned to normal, our heroes discover a statue with Mr. Jingles quoting Max verbatim. Sweetly, this indicates how he relented his [[WellIntentionedExtremist extremist approach]] to Christmas and took Max's advice to heart.
