A mix of eerie film-score cues, shadowy electronics, and uncanny acoustic pieces follows Coraline from the apparent comforts of the other house into its trap, then toward her hard-won escape. The instrumental pieces keep the suspense atmospheric and focused; the three vocal tracks evoke the Other Mother’s false invitation, Coraline’s stubborn courage, and the story’s unsettling nursery-rhyme quality.
