What's this? what's this? It's the gloriously spooky musical stop-motion animation from the imaginative minds of director Henry Selick and producer Tim Burton.

Afflicted with apathy, Jack Skellington struggles to find enjoyment in his mantle as the Pumpkin King of Halloween town. Feeling there is something missing from his life, he wanders from his home and stumbles upon Christmas town, and is instantly enchanted.

A deliciously gothic stop-motion musical from the inspired creative minds of Henry Selick (Coraline) and Tim Burton (Batman Returns), the enchanting The Nightmare Before Christmas puts a gorgeously ghouish Halloween spin on the holiday season.
