The story on which the film is based, "The Bridge to Body Island," has a much more complex mythology for the Bye Bye Man: He was an albino born in New Orleans in 1912 who ran away as a child and became a derelict who lived in a train yard. After going blind he began murdering people and cutting out their eyes and tongues, which he sewed together and brought to life using voodoo. The resultant creature became the Bye Bye Man's literal seeing-eye dog, helping him hunt his prey. Several elements from the story- notably the dog and the motif of trains-- were retained for the movie, though their purpose is left undefined.

When Elliot wants to view the dead file he found, the archivist tells him to use gloves because the documents contained are very old, and they may be damaged by greasy or sweaty fingers. However, when they are discussing the content, she is touching the documents barehanded herself. Elliot is seen wearing one glove, but he too touches the documents with his other, bare hand.
