* ActionDad: In the latter half of the movie, when his family's lives are in danger, he quickly transforms from a dumb and excitable person into a man who will take on haunted suits of armor to save those he holds dear.
%%* HappilyMarried: To Sara.
* MarriedToTheJob: Jim takes his work as an estate agent very seriously, jumping at every opportunity when it comes to selling a property, so much so that he fails to notice just how many family events he's missed in just one month. His obsession with working is actually the only reason that the family end up at Gracey Manor in the first place, something that he calls himself out for later in the movie.
