As someone who loves the nightmare before christmas, I need to ask. What's Yuu's dynamic with the cast (obviosly not the whole cast). Maybe like Jack, Sally, Oggie Boogie, and possibly Lock, Shock, and Barrel. Since they're the most iconics characters.
P.S. I absolutly adore your work. And you actually got me to watch the House of Mouse on Youtube.
The Pumpkin King and Queen of Halloweentown absolutely adore Yuu! She's so sweet and kind and very much unlike the citizens of their town. Since Sally was raised in isolation like Rapunzel and Quasimodo, she's a member of Yuu's book club and Yuu loves to teach both her and Jack about the human world. Jack loves anything new so meeting this strange new girl from another world. He tells her all about the scary creatures that he's friends with and tells her what he knows about ghosts if she wants to know more about her dormmates at Ramshackle. He also tells her all of his most effective scaring techniques in case anyone tries to hurt her.
You can't tell me that Mickey doesn't hire the Nightmare Before Christmas cast to perform 'This Is Halloween' every Halloween for the club's opening performance.
Also I love the fact that Jack is the king when the devil is literally a resident there.
Like The Shadow man, Oogie Boogie would try to rope Yuu into a rigged casino game before he is swiftly thwarted by Jack and Sally. Since he's the boogie man, he definitely knows what everyone's worst fear is but when he realised that Yuu didn't fear him, he was very impressed - I mean she may not be a young child but she is still a teenager and he knows fully grown adults that pass out at the sight of him. She even rescued his bugs from Timon and Pumbaa for him with a smile. He's not as charmed to her as everyone else is but he has some respect for her. He also knows just how much fear she has for her current situation and how scared she is living in a magical world where she's powerless and the only girl. Whenever the villains have poker nights at the club, he forces her to listen to him teaches her how to play. Perhaps he can get a one up on Jack if she likes him more.
He has a lot of amusement in scaring Jamil though, much to the displeasure of Jafar and Yuu.
Lock, Shock and Barrel are basically like the other villainous henchmen where they like Yuu because she treats them nicely and their boss likes her.
By the way thank you so much for that! House of Mouse was literally one of my favourite childhood cartoons and I love the fact that there are others that like it as well.

Plato's Allegory of Halloweentown
Wherein we examine the Allegory of the Cave through the lens of Nightmare Before Christmas.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In the allegory, people are chained in a cave facing the wall watching shadows. It's all they've ever known. These are the monstrous citizens of Halloweentown who know naught but Halloween.
Then one of the cave people escapes to the world above and beholds reality. This is Jack Skellington discovering Christmastown.
The escapee returns to the cave to tell the people of reality but he lacks the language and the chained people cannot comprehend his meaning. This is Jack at the town hall.
So when Jack decides to subvert Christmas, the people of Halloweentown can do nothing but Halloween it up for it is all they know.

Lore drop: my name is Agatha! I drew some better-known Agathas one night for fun; here they all are!
Tumblr media
Agatha Cromwell, *Halloweentown* franchise
You know, when I told my mother my new name, she said it sounded like “the name of an ugly witch,” but the witch Agatha *my* generation knows best is played by DEBBIE REYNOLDS so I think I’ll be fine.
Tumblr media
Then there’s Agatha Christie, a dated and problematic fave, and definitely who I get asked the most if I am named after (I am not). *murder on the orient express* does have some extremely funny lines in it though (the book not the new movie).
Tumblr media
Agatha Moustafa neé [not revealed], *The Grand Budapest Hotel*
I love Saoirse Ronan and used to be obsessed with this movie, I should rewatch it.
Tumblr media
Some Agatha facts!
Image Text
FYI: Agatha is from the Greek for “goodness, nobility, integrity.” It was said by Plato to be one of the two qualities of a good citizen, along with the Greek for wisdom, which gave us my sister’s name, Sophia!
Here’s Agatha of Sicily, a Catholic saint best known for carrying her boobs around on a plate (for Martyr-y reasons)
A. Sicily says: “Don’t ask.”
And Agatha Barbara, independence and equality activist and former president of Malta!
A. Barbara says: “My green flag is that I was imprisoned by the British!”
Tumblr media
Lastly,
Marvel’s Agatha Harkness and Agatha Wellbelove from Rainbow Rowell’s *Simon Snow* series
Ok, I guess we are a pretty witchy cohort, but look how cute they are! No regrets. Witch pride!
Comment ur favorite Agathas and I can draw them for u sometime =)

It's bustling, it's busy, it's buzzing, and it's full of wild laughter - that's Halloweentown for you today, and how good it feels to be part of the crowd instead of having to skulk about in the shadows and be locked behind hard, iron doors. How good it feels to feel alive and included.
All the potions and salves have vanished from the shelves at Sally's into the newly sewn pockets, top hats and capes of the citizens, and the sign on the door finally flips to "CLOSED!" once there is nothing more to sell. The Pumpkin Queen leans against the front door of her shop, a smile on her lips and an excitable whirlwind of leaves in her chest. Soon it will be time to go. With most of the town, she'll disappear into the human world and seek her own brand of mischief -- with her lovely Jack at her side.
A deep breath in, a deep breath out.
Let's go!
Sally bounces her way from the door and vanishes into the high energy of the town, a skinny black cat hopping from the roof of the shop and padding quickly in tow.

Since i have ADHD, yesterday while I was at work fixing a light on the roof of the Gibbon building, I was thinking about:
Imagine if Nightmare Before Christmas came out in 2020-2023
Everyone would be like "Oogie Boogie is Jack Skelingtons ex and thats why he points out the Santa is Ancient and Ugly because he thinks Jack is dating Santa and doesn't think Santa is Jack's type"
Fanart of Jack actually dating Santa
Humansonas of all the Halloweentown citizens
@dilfosaur sexyman of Zero the dog
Somehow still having the Kingdom Hearts crossover, but also Animal Crossing

For the hc assumptions: Jack has taken you on a date in HalloweenTown and introduced you to some of the citizens there? 🤔 —CCFM
You nailed it right on the head! When we first started dating, Jack took me to Halloween Town to see the sights! While we were there, we met some fo the local townsfolk! They were really shocked to see a human walking around town, but they accepted me with open arms, claws, and tentacles!

Get rid of Toon Town and make Halloweentown instead.
Tumblr media
Okay Disney Goths, I just had an amazing idea! What if Disneyland got rid of Toon Town and built a full blown Halloweentown instead? Just imagine, they'd build a full sized version of Jack's house and the entire town. The citizens of Halloweentown would be roaming about.
There could be a ride where you accompany Jack on his Christmas eve flight through the sky! Perhaps, even a spooky diner owned by the witches, where people can order food with spooky names, brew "potions" (which would just be drinks), and buy candy wands.
The ideas are endless!

This is the official main blog of the Discord roleplay group, Halloweentown.
Tumblr media
Members in screenshot: @misshoney200 , @werewolfshimmer , @cromwell-cottage
Info + invite link below the break!
Tumblr media
Halloweentown is a group created by a passionate lover of Halloween, Autumn, and all things spooky, for all those who love the same.
Tumblr media
Inspired by the Halloweentown movie series of the 90s and 2000s, this is all meant to be simple and sometimes nostalgic fun, and a place for childlike enjoyment of the holiday and all the quirky things we love, a place for spooky escapism. This is my aim, both in RP and OOC.
🎃 Click here to join Halloweentown! 🎃
You must be 13 or older and read all rules and intend to be reasonably active to join the group!
Tumblr media
Have fun with other fans of everything spooky! We have channels to share art, show off our Halloween displays, share spooky news, chat about movies, etc!
Very casual and laid back, with very few participation requirements! And you are welcome to join the server to check things out before getting involved.
We also have no length requirements for RP responses, should you choose to RP.
Use your own OC or any canon character of any media that isn't already taken! There is no limit on number of characters, and we have Tupperbox in the server for anyone to use
We are horror-friendly but not horror-centered, with individual categories for both in the server, hoping to cater to those who enjoy horror as well as those who simply love a playful style of Halloween!
We have our own RP-related radio station in the server!
Tumblr media
The setting for the group's RP ...
Roughly 20 years after the events of Halloweentown 1.
The inexperienced great niece of Agatha, Evanora Cromwell, has been elected mayor, and the portal to the human realm has been expanded and is now open to anyone, anywhere in the multiverse that can possibly reach it. New citizens and visitors have begun to arrive in town. Can Halloweentown stay the peaceful haven it was always meant to be?

Halloween in a Post-Apocalyptic Wasteland
Halloween. It used to be your favorite day of the year when you were a kid. You loved to dress up in funny or scary costumes and go out all around your neighborhood begging for candy from random strangers you would never speak to otherwise.
Your tradition ended when you were twenty-two and moved out into the big city to attend university. Lolly tried to get you to trick-or-treat with her, but you didn't trust the city folk. Your neighborhood was fairly kind and...law abiding citizens, but after being mugged for the third time in the first year you lived there, you had enough. No trick-or-treating for you.
Now that the world ended, you had even more reason not to go trick-or-treating.
You wished you could take Stardrop trick-or-treating. Imagine being a year old and not experiencing the fun of Halloween, even if you were living in a post-apocalyptic city crawling with mutated human remains that only wanted to eat your skin and flesh.
Stardrop didn't even know what Halloween was. You and Sun had decided not to tell her. Why tell her something she would not get to experience in her lifetime? Moon, on the other hand, wanted to tell Stardrop everything. He had told you, and very wisely at that, that "just because the world ended, it does not justify depriving a child of the best moments in life."
You had to agree with Moon on that one. It wasn't like you could take Stardrop trick-or-treating. There was one other person living in the building, and you didn't think January would appreciate being woken up before guard duty just to play dress up.
Either way, you and Moon settled down to talk to Stardrop about the wonders of Halloween. Since she was a little less than a year old, she didn't understand too much other than "monsters." She could walk, run, and climb a fence, but could barely sign her own name.
Fair enough.
She never had candy, either, so there wasn't anyway to hype her up for that. Moon wasn't sure what else he could do to teach Stardrop about Halloween.
Eventually the two of you gave up, and you and Stardrop went to sleep.
When you woke the next morning, Sun had a surprise for the two of you. He had found some Halloween movies in some of the neighboring apartments, and Moon and January had spent her guard making "caramel." (It was only melted sugar and water, but Stardrop didn't need to know that.)
Sun had also put together a cute little ghost costume for Stardrop to wear while the three of you watched the Halloween movies that evening.
All day, while you and Sun taught Stardrop about Halloween, she seemed to get more and more excited. The few words she could sign without struggle seemed to multiply as she asked Sun a thousand questions (she knew better than to sign at you rapidly, your signing would never be as good as Sun's and Moon's).
By the time the sun set and Moon had set up the movies on the television, Stardrop was beginning to get tired. Even her extra long afternoon nap did nothing to keep her awake. She managed to get halfway through Halloweentown, and her eyes just couldn't stay focused between darting back and forth between the screen and Moon's signing.
It was barely eight when Moon tucked Stardrop into bed. The caramel would have to wait until tomorrow.
When he came back, you were curled up on the couch, blanket wrapped around your shoulders. Now that he didn't have to sign, he could relax next to you on the couch.
He sank in beside you, stealing some of your blanket so his metallic limbs could warm up. Moon knew you weren't keen on cuddling him when he freezing to the touch - which was often in the autumn and winter seasons.
Moon motioned for you to come closer, which you did, tiredly. Usually, you went to bed shortly after the sun set, and you didn't always get to spend time with Moon. It was nice on those rare occasions when you could. He was gentle and calm with you, more than Sun was (not that you minded, you loved them both).
Moon began to run his fingers through your hair, careful not too tug too hard and disturb your comfort. As his fingers carded through your hair, you felt your eyelids getting heavier. But, you didn't want to sleep yet. You wanted to just spend more time with Moon.
If you voiced that concern to him, though, you knew how he would act. Even now, after months of working on his behavior, Moon got a little skittish around you not sleeping, especially if you hadn't been sleeping well at all the last few days.
He would know. Moon hovered around you while you slept, and sometimes would even lay in bed with you to keep you company - "keep you safe" he would always say.
You had gotten used to his presence at bedtime. In fact, you couldn't sleep without him there, anymore, and you didn't have to often. Stardrop slept through the night now, and January kept most of the creatures out of the building at night with her traps.
"Go to sleep," Moon whispered, bending down the push his face plate against your forehead and humming, "If you're tired, you should go to sleep."
You rolled over slightly so you could stare up at him. He gazed back down at you before he nuzzled your forehead again.
"Moony," you whispered back, "Did you know that I love you?"
He hummed again, "Are you trying to butter me up so that I don't force you to sleep?"
"...no..."
Moon's grin widened against your forehead, and he pulled back to stare down at you. His one eye was bright red, and the other was dark. He usually had to focus really hard to illuminate both eyes ever since the one got damaged.
"Have I ever told you...how...glad I am that you dug me out of that pile?"
You could feel the heat rush to your face. He doesn't bring up your meeting often, and usually only as leverage.
"I don't think I can sleep, Moon," you cooed, "All these Halloween movies are going to give me nightmares..."
Moon's face deadpanned. Halloweentown was one of the least scary Halloween movies, and here you were claiming it was going to give you nightmares. You couldn't help but giggle up at his face plate.
"Shh, I'm kidding."
He bonked you with his forehead, and you giggled even more. His fingers trailed along your sides, feather light, until they curled into your hips and held you still.
Moon leaned down, his face awfully close to yours again, and he said: "You're an idiot."
He gently pecked your lips with his permanent grin and then lifted you from the couch, spinning you around as he did so. You giggled harder and wiggled, trying to get out of his grasp.
You couldn't, naturally.
Moon carried you in a ball of blanket toward your bedroom, humming a lullaby while he did. He deposited you on your bed and then flopped down on the mattress beside you.
"I think we should continue Halloween tomorrow," he concluded, "For Stardrop's sake. She didn't get to celebrate too much."
He was a softy when it came to Stardrop. Of course he would want to please her. The three of you would probably spend all day watching more Halloween movies and eating the caramel January made.
"I'm not sure Sun will let us lay around all day," you said, "Especially not with that much screen time."
Moon rolled over on top of you, hovering just above and stared down at your face for a second, "He said that he can be persuaded," he nearly purred, "You just need to spend some time with him...in the morning before Stardrop wakes up."
You push Moon's face plate away from your face. He chuckles and rolls off you onto the bed again, pulling the blankets up and around the two of you. The only light you see is his eye light, and it's gazing at you, like usual.
"Goodnight," he whispered.
"'Night," you agreed, "Halloween two tomorrow."
He bumps his faceplate against your head again, and begins to card through your hair with his fingers.
Maybe next year, you could take Stardrop for a proper trick-or-treat. Maybe the world will be better by then...
