Although Jack is loved and respected by the townspeople, he has become bored with the repetitiveness of Halloween and feels that there is something missing from his life. While wandering in the woods after one such Halloween, with his ghost dog, <a href="/wiki/Zero" class="mw-redirect" title="Zero">Zero</a>, Jack discovers a circle of trees he has never seen before. Each tree has a door on it but Jack is immediately attracted to the door in the shape of a Christmas tree. When Jack opens this Christmas tree door, he is sucked into a town filled with snow, lights, and happiness. Jack is mesmerized by all the colors and cheerfulness, and realizes that this may be what he has been searching for. </p><p>Upon his return to Halloweentown, Jack immediately calls for a town meeting. During the meeting he reveals several of the artifacts he brought with him from Christmas town. Unfortunately, the denizens of Halloweentown only think in terms of how these toys could be used for Halloween. Frustrated from the misunderstandings, Jack describes the ruler of <a href="/w/index.php?title=Christmastown&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Christmastown (page does not exist)">Christmastown</a> in the only way the town members can understand: as a lobster-red creature possessing a deep voice and riding his sleigh "like a vulture in the sky," his name, "Sandy Claws". Distraught by his friends' inability to understand Christmas, Jack locks himself in his house and performs multiple experiments to try to understand the meaning of Christmas. He finally comes to the realization that believing in Christmas is all it takes and he informs the town of his intention to take over Christmas for that year. Jack then assigns each of the townspeople certain duties in order to make Christmas theirs, including having Sally sew Jack a Santa Claus outfit and having Dr. Finkelstein bring several skeleton reindeer to life. In order to complete this takeover, Jack enlists the help of a trio of young trick or treaters named Lock, Shock, and Barrel to "Kidnap the Sandy Claws." After mistakenly kidnapping the Easter bunny the trio bring Santa Claus to Jack, who tells them not to bring them to Oogie Boogie but end up doing so anyway. Despite Jack's efforts to make their Christmas joyful, the townspeople end up mixing the ideas of Christmas and Halloween, creating twisted toys and decorations. </p><p>Sally, who is secretly in love with Jack, has a vision about the disasters to come and tries to warn him that taking over something he knows nothing about may be a bad idea. However, Jack is too wrapped in his fantasies to listen, so she attempts to stop Jack's departure by creating a fog bank, but Zero's lighted, jack-o-lantern nose allows Jack to see. </p><p>Now Christmas eve, Jack embarks from Halloweentown to share Halloweentown's toys with the whole world. Unfortunately, the citizens of the real world are not so receptive to these twisted toys and begin to call police reporting attacks from toys and a "flying skeleton." Soon after, the military is called in to deal with the Santa Claus impostor, eventually shooting Jack out of the sky. At the same time, Sally sets off to rescue Santa Claus in order to set things right. However, during her rescue attempt she is also captured by Oogie Boogie who perversely gambles with both of their lives. The other citizens of Halloweentown witness Jack being shot down, and, fearing the worst, begin to mourn his death. </p><p>Meanwhile, the citizens of the real world are being informed that since the real Santa Claus can't be found Christmas must be cancelled. Upon regaining consciousness in a graveyard amongst the wreckage of his failed Christmas, Jack hears this news and realizes his foolishness. He realizes that his role in life is to be the Pumpkin King and vows to make the next Halloween the best ever. In an effort to save this Christmas, Jack returns to Halloweentown to save Santa Claus. He rushes to Oogie's lair to rescue both Sally and Santa Claus and in defeating Oogie reveals him to be nothing more than a sack full of bugs. Santa Claus informs Jack that he can easily save Christmas, after all he is Santa Claus, and magically floats out the chimney and restores peace to the real world by replacing all of Jack's presents. Jack returns to Halloweentown to the great joy of its citizens and Santa is seen flying over Halloween Town wishing the citizens a Happy Halloween while Jack responds with a Merry Christmas. With him, however, Santa brings snow and the citizens of Halloweentown finally understand the Christmas spirit. </p><p>Finally, Sally reveals her true feelings for Jack and the movie ends with a kiss. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast_(voices)"><span id="Cast_.28voices.29"></span>Cast (voices)</h2></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Chris_Sarandon" title="Chris Sarandon">Chris Sarandon</a> - <a href="/wiki/Jack_Skellington" title="Jack Skellington">Jack Skellington</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Danny_Elfman" title="Danny Elfman">Danny Elfman</a> - <a href="/wiki/Jack_Skellington" title="Jack Skellington">Jack Skellington</a> (singing), <a href="/wiki/Lock,_Shock,_and_Barrel" class="mw-redirect" title="Lock, Shock, and Barrel">Barrel</a>, Clown with the Tearaway Face</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Catherine_O%27Hara" title="Catherine O'Hara">Catherine O'Hara</a> - <a href="/wiki/Sally_(The_Nightmare_Before_Christmas)" class="mw-redirect" title="Sally (The Nightmare Before Christmas)">Sally</a>, <a href="/wiki/Lock,_Shock,_and_Barrel" class="mw-redirect" title="Lock, Shock, and Barrel">Shock</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/William_Hickey_(actor)" title="William Hickey (actor)">William Hickey</a> - <a href="/wiki/Doctor_Finklestein" class="mw-redirect" title="Doctor Finklestein">Dr. Finklestein</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Glenn_Shadix" title="Glenn Shadix">Glenn Shadix</a> - <a href="/wiki/Mayor_(The_Nightmare_Before_Christmas)" class="mw-redirect" title="Mayor (The Nightmare Before Christmas)">Mayor</a></li> <li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Susan_McBride&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Susan McBride (page does not exist)">Susan McBride</a> - Big Witch, W.W.D.</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Paul_Reubens" title="Paul Reubens">Paul Reubens</a> - <a href="/wiki/Lock,_Shock,_and_Barrel" class="mw-redirect" title="Lock, Shock, and Barrel">Lock</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ken_Page_(actor)" class="mw-redirect" title="Ken Page (actor)">Ken Page</a> - <a href="/wiki/Oogie_Boogie" class="mw-redirect" title="Oogie Boogie">Oogie Boogie</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ed_Ivory" class="mw-redirect" title="Ed Ivory">Ed Ivory</a> - <a href="/wiki/Santa_Claus" title="Santa Claus">Santa Claus</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Greg_Proops" title="Greg Proops">Greg Proops</a> - Harlequin Demon, Sax Player, <a href="/wiki/Devil" title="Devil">Devil</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Carmen_Twillie" class="mw-disambig" title="Carmen Twillie">Carmen Twillie</a> - Man Under the Stairs, Undersea Gal</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Debi_Durst" class="mw-redirect" title="Debi Durst">Debi Durst</a> - Corpse Mom, Corpse Kid, Zeldaborn the Little Witch</li> <li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Randy_Crenshaw&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Randy Crenshaw (page does not exist)">Randy Crenshaw</a> - Mr. Hyde, Behemoth, <a href="/wiki/Vampire" title="Vampire">Vampire</a></li> <li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Kerry_Katz&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Kerry Katz (page does not exist)">Kerry Katz</a> - Man Under the Stairs (singing), Corpse Dad, Vampire</li> <li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Sherwood_Ball&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Sherwood Ball (page does not exist)">Sherwood Ball</a> - Mummy Kid, Vampire</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Glenn_Walters" class="mw-disambig" title="Glenn Walters">Glenn Walters</a> - <a href="/wiki/Werewolf" title="Werewolf">Wolfman</a></li> <li>Additional Voices by <a href="/w/index.php?title=Richard_Baker_(actor)&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Richard Baker (actor) (page does not exist)">Richard Baker</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Mia_Brown&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Mia Brown (page does not exist)">Mia Brown</a>, <a href="/wiki/L._Peter_Callender" title="L.

Burton has stated that he was inspired by being at a store and seeing them taking down the Halloween merchandise and changing it out for Christmas displays. Also, Tim loved holiday movies such as <i>How The Grinch Stole Christmas</i> and <i>Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer</i>. In an interview he also described <i>The Nightmare Before Christmas</i> as almost an opposite of The Grinch because instead of wanting to destroy Christmas, Jack wants to celebrate it but accidentally destroys it. While at work, Burton scribbled out the poem on a piece of paper as well as a few drawings. These initial versions only included Jack, Zero and Santa Claus. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2></div> <p><i>The Nightmare Before Christmas</i> marked the first time that a <a href="/wiki/Stop_motion" title="Stop motion">stop motion</a> movie had been attempted at this scale. It is one of the best movies ever made with Christmas mixing with Halloween. Because of this fact, a great deal of imagination and inventiveness had to be used in making the film. In order to produce the film, Tim Burton assembled a hand-picked group of animators, artists, and crew members to work on the film and founded a production company called Skellington Studios. In order to flesh out the script and come up with new characters (as an artist himself he was very specific as to the look and feel of the movie, even limiting them to orange, black and white for the primary colors of Halloween Town). Burton also encouraged the artists to not use their dominant hands as to give their drawings his trademark feel. Once the sets had been approved they were then made into half scale mock-ups out of cardboard. These were then used as guidelines to build the actual sets. The puppets were constructed with a detailed metal <a href="/wiki/Armature_(sculpture)" title="Armature (sculpture)">armature</a> as a skeleton, and then placed into moulds which were injected with a foam <a href="/wiki/Latex" title="Latex">latex</a>. From there they were sent to the fabrication department to be painted and finished. Multiple puppets were made of most of the characters so that they could cycle between the set and fabrication for touch ups. </p><p>The crew often had to improvise solutions to problems that they encountered during production. One of these problems was to give facial expressions to the puppets and making them speak. This was accomplished in a number of different fashions. Some puppets had mouths that were moved manually while some of the main puppets, such as Jack, were given hundreds of replaceable heads so that they could have a greater range of expression. The puppet for Sally was given interchangeable masks that were integrated behind her hairline because her hair was too long to be sculpted for the number of heads that would be needed. Another problem that was faced was allowing the animators to work on the sets. Because some were so large, the animators were worried that they would have to reach too far to move the puppets. This problem was solved by building the sets in different sections that could be separated when an animator was working and then placed back together for the shot. </p><p>The actual production of filming was a very slow and grueling process, taking over 3 years to finish. The animators worked on multiple <a href="/wiki/Sound_stage" title="Sound stage">sound stages</a> at once to improve productivity on the film but a week’s work was still only a minute’s worth of actual film. The animators had to be very careful to be cautious on the sets as a simple thing such as a bump to one of the puppets could ruin a shot and they would have to start from scratch. </p><p>At the finish of the production of the film, the sets and puppets all faced different fates. Henry Selick kept a great deal of props from the film in his personal collection, and some of the animators also took home the puppets. Many of the sets were simply discarded as there were so many of them and they took up a great deal of space. A number of the puppets with a more human like structure were cut open and the armature taken out, as they were custom made and expensive. The Town Hall can currently be seen on display by the staircase leading from the ground to the 1st floor at Planet Hollywood in Downtown Disney, Orlando, Florida. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Reaction_and_legacy">Reaction and legacy</h2></div> <p><i>Nightmare</i> originally opened in wide release on October 29, 1993. Although it received generally positive reviews by critics, with a 97% "fresh" at <a href="/wiki/Rotten_Tomatoes" title="Rotten Tomatoes">Rotten Tomatoes</a>, the film struggled to find an audience. It eventually earned a respectable $50 million at the box office, but still was not nearly as successful as many other Disney films of that time. </p><p>The film was nominated for best original score in the 1994 Golden Globes, as well as an Oscar nomination for Visual Effects, however it lost in both cases. </p><p>When <i>The Nightmare Before Christmas</i> was released on video, it gradually gained a cult following, especially among the <a href="/wiki/Goth" class="mw-disambig" title="Goth">goth</a> subculture. After a merchandising blitz for the film emerged in the early 2000s, the film became wildly popular among youth. Since, <i>The Nightmare Before Christmas</i> has become a mainstream hit and is even considered a holiday classic. </p><p>The same studio that produced <i>The Nightmare Before Christmas</i> later created another stop motion movie based on the <a href="/wiki/Roald_Dahl" title="Roald Dahl">Roald Dahl</a> book, <i><a href="/wiki/James_and_the_Giant_Peach_(film)" title="James and the Giant Peach (film)">James and the Giant Peach</a></i> (1996), and received success, albeit to a much lesser extent. </p><p>In 2005, <a href="/wiki/Tim_Burton" title="Tim Burton">Burton</a> returned to the medium of <a href="/wiki/Stop_motion" title="Stop motion">stop motion</a> with the film, <i><a href="/wiki/Corpse_Bride" title="Corpse Bride">Corpse Bride</a></i>, which was distributed by <a href="/wiki/Warner_Bros." title="Warner Bros.">Warner Bros.</a> Though it was heavily compared to <i>The Nightmare Before Christmas</i>, it released to positive reviews. </p><p>On October 20, 2006, a remastered <a href="/wiki/Disney_Digital_3D" class="mw-redirect" title="Disney Digital 3D">Disney Digital 3D</a> version of the film was released in select theatres. In conjunction with the 3D re-release, Disney released a special two-disc soundtrack album on October 24, 2006. It features musical artists such as <a href="/wiki/Fall_Out_Boy" title="Fall Out Boy">Fall Out Boy</a>, <a href="/wiki/Marilyn_Manson" title="Marilyn Manson">Marilyn Manson</a>, <a href="/wiki/Panic!_At_The_Disco" class="mw-redirect" title="Panic!

His plan goes awry when Oogie Boogie (one of the Disney villains allied with <a href="/wiki/Maleficent" title="Maleficent">Maleficent</a>) steals the heart, ingests it, and tries to use it to control the Heartless for his own purposes. Jack then teams up with Sora and the others to stop Oogie Boogie's plans. Jack can also join <a href="/wiki/Sora_(Kingdom_Hearts)" title="Sora (Kingdom Hearts)">Sora's</a> party whenever they are in Halloween Town. He was also included in the GameBoy Advance game <i><a href="/wiki/Kingdom_Hearts:_Chain_of_Memories" title="Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories">Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories</a></i> as a Friend Card sporting his own unique Sleights, or combos. In this version, he helps Sora stop Oogie Boogie after the latter drank a potion that shows the true memories of the heart and frightens all but the most pure-hearted. His appearance as a Friend unlocks the availability of the Pumpkinhead Keyblade Card as well. </p><p><i><a href="/wiki/Kingdom_Hearts_II" title="Kingdom Hearts II">Kingdom Hearts II</a></i> also features Halloween Town and its residents. It seemingly follows the movie plot, in which Jack tries to take Santa Claus's place in Christmas. However, at one point during the story, Jack and Santa mention this being the second time Jack has attempted to take over Christmas. This justifies the theory that Kingdom Hearts II takes place after the events of the movie (Although is it not specified whether it also takes place after <i>Oogie's Revenge</i>, as that game and the <i>Kingdom Hearts</i> series are owned by different companies, though the fact Jack does not wield the Soul Robber in this game may mean that this takes place before <i>Oogie's Revenge</i>, or that the game is not in the Kingdom Hearts continuity), minus Oogie Boogie. In the game, <a href="/wiki/Maleficent" title="Maleficent">Maleficent</a> arrives to recruit Lock, Shock, and Barrel to help her wreck Christmas Town and make Santa Claus into a Heartless. But when Sora arrives to help Jack as Santa's bodyguard, Maleficent uses her powers to revive Oogie Boogie, who now seems to have a <a href="/wiki/Anterograde_amnesia" title="Anterograde amnesia">short-term memory loss</a>, remembering only his undying hatred of Jack and "sidekicks". Nonetheless, Oogie Boogie is defeated just as he had been before. </p><p>In the second visit, Jack (still wearing the Santa outfit) teams up with Sora to help bring back lost presents to Santa. During their mission, the two learn of a mysterious "gift-thief". This thief turns out to be a robotic creature created by Dr. Finklestein, referred to as the "Experiment." It is caught and defeated while attempting to find a heart by stealing Santa's presents since it lacked its own. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Trading_card_game">Trading card game</h2></div> <p>In September 2005, a card game called The Nightmare Before Christmas TCG was released.

The juxtaposition of ghouls and goblins with Santa and his reindeer sparked his imagination.</li> <li>Two items were invented to facilitate the filming of the movie: One was a "light alarm" which would warn the animators if any of the stage lights failed to come on. The other was a system that enabled a puppeteer to seamlessly switch to a replacement puppet if a puppet broke during a shot. Prior to this, either situation, a light failing to come on or a puppet breaking would destroy a shot.</li> <li>Two toys that Jack delivers reference <i><a href="/wiki/Batman_Returns" title="Batman Returns">Batman Returns</a></i>, the film Tim Burton had directing commitments towards at the time.

The reason for this was, at the time Disney did not think it proper to have a "PG" rating under the Disney banner, so it was switched to the Touchstone banner.</li> <li>This was the first movie to ever be fully animated using the stop-motion technique that was favored by Tim Burton for special effects in some of his other movies for its surreal quality.
