How would you defeat the Woman in Black?
Ghosts in movies like these are often seemingly invincible. Would there be any way to defeat the ghost if even burying her child won't do it. Ideas?

Ghosts as irredeemably bloodthirsty as the woman in black require better strategies than 'let's do something nice for her and hope she stops killing completely innocent kids'. My thoughts for the aptly named Mr. Kidd:
Go ahead and suction bog boy out of the muck with Sam’s help. After reuniting the marsh munchkin’s gooey remains with those of his mother, play it straight. Act as if you really believe doing a solid for a vengeful and psychotically unhinged ghost has worked to soften her pointlessly murderous resolve.
Go to the train station and pick up son and nanny. Pretend all is well. When the wib rudely attempts homicide by train, at first act as if you don’t see her to increase her complacency. Have a silent conversation with your friend as your tiny son lets go of your hand and wanders toward the tracks. Then, suddenly shout the attack signal that you and your late wife agreed upon in advance, offscreen – something like “Khaaaan!!” would be cool. You tackle the kid before he gets to the tracks and Mrs. Kidd jumps out of the shadowy, out-of-focus background to deliver a crippling blow to wib's back with a folding chair.
After this drops the ghostly bully to her knees, dead Mrs. K tosses the chair as she swiftly draws a samurai sword and growls, “B*tch, you don’t have a future” before beheading her while executing a simultaneous kung-fu pirouette to kick the head into the path of the oncoming train before it hits the ground. Cue uplifting music, a brief but tender farewell scene with a still-living husband and a son who will now get to grow up and enjoy a full life instead of having to do his chores and make his bed for all eternity, a brief explanation that when ghosts kill other ghosts it's finally over, then roll credits.
I'd tell her I loved her on the first date. Always seems to scare women off.

BEST ANSWER YET!!
shareIf you don't want to burn the house down (that's the best idea), at least get rid of all the furniture, decor AND THE CREEPY-ASS TOYS! Change the whole interior, change the whole landscape with graves thing. Change the whole feel of the place, paint it bright pink and sunshine yellow inside, and play relentlessly cheerful music 24 hours a day. Change the vibe and she might not be able to find a place to root herself there.
"Only a closed mind is certain."
LOL! Personal experience, is it?
shareI don't think anything would work, I mean at the end she says she will never forgive. Ie you can't placate her, she will keep killing kids.
So, basically *beep* her. Buy her lot, hire a demolition team and demolish her house. Dig up her grave and burn her body. Utterly destroy everything within two square miles of her house. See how she likes that.
Then at the end set up a 5 meter tall fence/wall/whatever around the swamp to make sure nobody enters. That way nobody ever sees her and no more kids are killed. I'm sure the village would be more than willing shelling out for it, considering the murder spree she is responsible for. Harshly punish anyway who tries to enter the area.
You could also hire a *beep* of spiritual people who can "rid the area of evil" or whatever, but we have no idea if it would actually work. The movie does not provide a certain way of destroying her. So I think a 5 meter tall fence is the way to go.
The only thing I can possibly think of would be to bury them in consecrated ground and then clean the house. basically Exorcise them. Giving them no place to inhabit. probably in the N destroying the house completely. Which would be a shame!
shareburn the house down and why doesn't anyone in these ghost movies try to kill the ghost rather than run away. I mean ax that woman down please.

Yep I would definately burn the house down too. It'd be the first thing I'd do.
shareBurn down the house
Destroy everything else on the island, especially her tombstone
Dig up her son from the bog and burn him too
Dig up the road so that there is no driveable route onto the island
Burn down the village and surrounding areas
Salt everything in the area so that no one has a reason to stay
