Fan Casting The Other Father in Coraline

He appears identical to Coraline's real father. He knows how to play piano, but to play complex pieces, he needs his trademark mechanical hands. It is hinted throughout the film that he is terrified of the Other Mother, doing as she says and obeying her every command. Later on in the film, the Other Father turns into a pumpkin-like human with the face in a permanent frown with a monster-like voice and barely capable of speech.
