Nightmare Before Christmas
Skellington's holiday confusion
A 1993 Tim Burton stop-motion animated film depicting Halloween Town's pumpkin king discovering Christmas Town and attempting to take over the holiday.
The film has become a cult classic, spawning debate over whether it's a Halloween or Christmas movie.
We watch Nightmare Before Christmas every year—twice, once in October and once in December.
