The Nightmare Before Christmas

'Twas a long time ago Longer now than it seems

In a place that perhaps you've seen in your dreams

For the story that you are about to be told

Took place in the holiday worlds of old

Now, you've probably wondered where holidays come from

If you haven't, I'd say It's time you begun!

- It's over! - We did it!

- Wasn't it terrifying? - What a night!

Great Halloween, everybody!

I believe it was our most horrible yet. Thank you, everyone.

No. Thanks to you, Jack. Without your brilliant leadership...

- Not at all, Mayor. - You're such a scream, Jack!

You're a witch's fondest dream!

You made walls fall, Jack!

Walls fall? You made the very mountains crack, Jack!

The deadly nightshade you slipped me wore off, Sally.

Let go!

You're not ready for so much excitement.

Yes, I am.

- You're coming with me! - No, I'm not!

- Oh! - Oh!

Come back here, you foolish...

Ow! Oh!

Ooh, Jack, you make wounds ooze and flesh crawl!

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much!

Hold it! We haven't given out the prizes yet!

Our first award goes to the vampires

for most blood drained in a single evening.

A second and honourable mention

goes to the fabulous...

Dark Lagoon Leeches.

Nice work, Bone Daddy!

Yeah, I guess so. Just like last year.

And the year before that, and the year before that.

Jack...

I know how you feel.

Sally!

You've come back.

- I had to. - For this!

- Yes. - Shall we, then?

That's twice this month you've slipped deadly nightshade

- into my tea and run off. - Three times.

You're mine, you know.

I made you with my own hands!

You can make other creations.

I'm restless. I can't help it.

It's a phase, my dear. It'll pass.

We need to be patient, that's all.

But I don't want to be patient!

No, Zero, not now.

I'm not in the mood.

All right.

Here you go, boy.

Morning, gents!

Jack? You home?

Jack? I've got the plans for next Halloween.

I need to go over them with you so we can get started.

Jack, please. I'm only an elected official here.

I can't make decisions by myself.

Jack, answer me!

- He's not home. - Where is he?

He hasn't been home all night.

Where are we?

It's someplace new.

What is this?

Whoa!

Christmas Town? Hmm.

Ho! Ho! Ho!

Hmm...

- This has never happened before. - It's suspicious.

- It's peculiar. - It's scary!

Stand aside. Coming through.

We've got to find Jack.

There's only 365 days left till next Halloween!

Three sixty-four.

Is there anywhere we've forgotten to check?

I looked in every mausoleum.

We opened the sarcophagi.
