In 1993, the Tim Burton-produced The Nightmare Before Christmas opened just before Halloween and quietly ran just through the first weekend of December. Directed by Henry Selick, the stop-motion animated film featured the voice of Fright Night‘s Chris Sarandon as Jack Skellington, king of Halloween Town, who discovers Christmas Town, but his attempts to bring Christmas to his home causes confusion. Nightmare has since become a pop culture phenomenon with Disney celebrating the film with several re-releases, a massive array of products, and even a dark ride at Disney Land (every year, they redress “Haunted Mansion” with that of characters and scenes from the film).
As the film celebrates its 30th anniversary this month, it feels only fitting that Jack and Sally arrive to celebrate via high-fashion collectible Monster High figures.
Following in the wake of dolls based on The Shining, Stephen King’s IT, Beetlejuice, Gremlins 2, Elvira, and Annabelle, the Creature from the Black Lagoon is getting a Monster High doll.
